Session Data with Durandal

Question

I am just getting started with Durandal.js so excuse me for the silly quesstion...

When a user makes it\'s first request to the app it is asked to choose a \'profile

Answer 1

As an alternative to Evan's answer, which is definitively the correct AMD approach... have you considered using a global object for that purpose?

in main.js

window.myApp = {
    prop1: 'value',
    subOne: {
         prop1: 'value'
    } 
   ... 
}

That will allow you to access the global myApp object everywhere. I know that some people will consider that as global namespace pollution and in general a bad practice, but in a SPA project (where you control window) I'd consider this still a viable approach.
