在没有NodeJ EventEmitter的情况下构建Flux / React应用程序

Question

Hi I'm trying to build a Flux/React application with a go-lang back-end. I have been following a tutorial I found here. But I have a problem when building the store. In the tutorial something like this is used to create a base for the store.

var ProductStore = _.extend({}, EventEmitter.prototype, {...});

The problem I have is I do not have access to the EventEmitter library which I understand is a Nodejs lib? Is there an alternative I can use?

Answer 1

You can use NodeJS libraries in the browser! Take a look at browserify.

First some code:

// index.js
var EventEmitter = require("events").EventEmitter;
var ProductStore = function() {};
ProductStore.prototype = new EventEmitter;

Then you run browserify on it:

browserify index.js > bundle.js

Also worth a look is WebPack which does the same thing. (but has some additional features)
