routes manage high-level application state
components receive and render data,
and react to user input
capabilities provide data to components,
and broker communications between them
page de nitions reusable groupings
of components and capabilities
stores persist data on the device, make that
data query-able, and return model instances


routes manage high-level application state


$YOURAPP/javascript/routes.js

mulberry.page('/todos', {
name : 'Todos',
pageDef : 'todos'
}, true);

mulberry.page('/completed', {
name : 'Completed',
pageDef : 'completed'
});

#/todos #/completed


stores persist data on the device, make that
data query-able, and return model instances


$YOURAPP/javascript/stores/todos.js

mulberry.store('todos', {
model : 'Todo',

finish : function(id) {
this.invoke(id, 'finish');
},

unfinish : function(id) {
this.invoke(id, 'unfinish');
}
});


page de nitions reusable groupings
of components and capabilities


todos:
capabilities:
- name: PageTodos
screens:
- name: index
regions:
- components:
- custom.TodoForm
- className: list
scrollable: true
components:
- custom.TodoList
- components:
- custom.TodoTools

NB: You can define this with JavaScript, too,
using toura.pageDef(‘todos’, { ... }).


components receive and render data,
and react to user input


$YOURAPP/javascript/components/TodoForm.js

mulberry.component('TodoForm', {
componentTemplate : dojo.cache('client.components', 'TodoForm/TodoForm.haml'),

init : function() {
this.connect(this.domNode, 'submit', function(e) {
e.preventDefault();

var description = dojo.trim(this.descriptionInput.value),
item;

if (!description) { return; }

item = { description : description };
this.domNode.reset();
this.onAdd(item);
});
},

onAdd : function(item) { }
});


$YOURAPP/javascript/components/TodoForm/TodoForm.haml

%form.component.todo-form
%input{ placeholder : 'New todo', dojoAttachPoint : 'descriptionInput' }
%button{ dojoAttachPoint : 'saveButton' } Add


capabilities provide data to components,
and broker communications between them


mulberry.capability('PageTodos', {
todos:
requirements : {
capabilities:
todoList : 'custom.TodoList',
- name: PageTodos
todoForm : 'custom.TodoForm',

- components:

init : function() {
this.todos = client.stores.todos;
this._updateList();

_add : function(item) {
this.todos.add(item);
