Module Patterns

Big Word

Revealing Module Pattern: Exposing only the properties and methods you want via an returned object A very common and clean way to structure and protect code within modules.

The code

//pantter 1
var greet = require('./greet1');
greet();

//pattern 2
var greet2 = require('./greet2').greet;
greet2();


//pattern 3  notice this will be chache
var greet3 = require('./greet3');
greet3.greet();
greet3.greeting = 'Changed hello world!';

var greet3b = require('./greet3');
greet3b.greet();


//patter notice we return an constructor function
var Greet4 = require('./greet4');
var grtr = new Greet4();
grtr.greet();



//patter 5  we return an object
var greet5 = require('./greet5').greet;
greet5();
