Add UMD wrapper for bower about backbone-api-client HOT 6 OPEN

{
  "scripts": {
    "dist": "browserify --standalone backboneApiClient index.js > dist/backbone-api-client.js"
  }
}

from backbone-api-client.

Close but we don't want to include underscore as part of the dependencies. It should be resolved by the UMD itself as per Backbone

https://github.com/jashkenas/backbone/blob/1.1.2/backbone.js#L8-L28

define(['underscore'], function (_) {
OR
require('underscore')
OR
this._

from backbone-api-client.

-.- this is solved by depending on xtend instead of underscore.

xtend is so small that duplicating it in AMD environments is no big deal.

from backbone-api-client.

if AMD want to reduce size even further then that then they can use their own tools to make the commonJS source AMD compliant outside of this module.

Wrapping your code with UMD seems silly, since UMD is a tooling concern not a source code concern.

I would prefer to be more friendly to the end user by keeping it consistent with Backbone and taking care of the deduplication.

UMD might be a tooling concern but it does impact source code making them not mutually exclusive.

seems legit.
