This is a configuration file, likely for a JavaScript module loader like RequireJS. Let’s break down what it contains:
1. paths:
This section defines the mapping between logical module names (used in require() calls in your JavaScript code) and the actual file paths where those modules are located. It’s organized into nested objects.
* Top-Level Keys: These represent base paths or categories of modules. For example, libs suggests a directory containing third-party libraries. fly likely represents custom code within the project.
* Values: The values are the paths to the JavaScript files. These can be relative paths (relative to the location of this configuration file) or absolute URLs.
Here’s a breakdown of some key paths:
* .custom: 2.6.2 – A custom module, likely a core part of the application.
* libs/velocity: 1.2.2 – The Velocity.js animation library.
* libs/dataTables: 1.10.6 – The DataTables JavaScript library for creating interactive tables.
* libs/dataTables.fixedColumns: 3.0.4 – A DataTables extension for fixing columns.
* libs/dataTables.fixedHeader: 2.1.2 – A DataTables extension for fixing the table header.
* libs/dateformat: 1.0.3 – A library for formatting dates.
* libs/waypoints/...: A collection of Waypoints.js modules for triggering functions as you scroll down the page.
* libs/jquery/...: A large number of jQuery plugins. These provide various functionalities like:
* dotdotdot: Truncating text with an ellipsis.
* flexslider: A responsive slider.
* lazyload: Loading images only when they are visible in the viewport.
* maskedinput: Formatting input fields (e.g., phone numbers).
* marquee: Creating scrolling text.
* numberformatter: Formatting numbers.
* placeholder: Adding placeholder text to input fields.
* scrollbar: Custom scrollbar functionality.
* tablesorter: Sorting tables.
* touchswipe: Adding touch swipe support.
* jquery.ui.*: A complete set of UI widgets from jQuery UI (autocomplete, accordion, tabs, dialog, etc.).
* fly/libs/jquery.mobile-1.3.2: jQuery Mobile library.
* fly/libs/underscore-1.5.1: Underscore.js utility library.
* fly/libs/backbone-1.0.0: Backbone.js framework.
* liveconnection/libs/sockjs-0.3.4: SockJS library for enabling WebSocket-like communication.
* https://sports.cbsimg.net/js/CBSi/app/VideoPlayer/AdobePass-min.js: An external JavaScript file hosted on a CBS Sports domain, likely related to video player authentication (Adobe Pass).
* https://connect.facebook.net/en_US/sdk.js: The Facebook JavaScript SDK.
2. shim:
This section is crucial for dealing with libraries that don’t follow the standard asynchronous module definition (AMD) format that RequireJS expects. These libraries often rely on global variables or have dependencies that need to be explicitly declared.
* Key: The name of the module (as used in require()).
* deps: An array of module names that this module depends on.requirejs will ensure these dependencies are loaded before loading the module.
* exports: If the library creates a global variable, this specifies the name of that variable. RequireJS will make that global variable available as the return value of the require() call.
Examples from shim:
* liveconnection/managers/connection: Depends on `liveconnection/libs
