Common.js

Not a plugin, not a framework... Just a collection of common JavaScript methods for the client.

The scope of common.js is to persist on the rule "one include of the absolutely necessary" as a foundation to start building any dependency stack.

Features

Includes common polyfills:

• Modernizr
• Universal console.log
• iOS orientationchange fix
• mqa.js
• Fastclick
• Base64.js
• CSS: background-video

Also contains a small toolkit of fundamental operations, mapped in the "c" variable on the global namespace.

Install

Using bower:

bower install common.js

Methods

These methods are available in the window.c namespace:

• query( str ) : Parses a query to a javascript object
• script( url ) : Adds a new script to the DOM
• cookie( val ) : Simplified CRUD for document.cookie
• extend({a}, {b}) : Merging two objects recursively
• link( url ) : Adds a new link tag, of an HTML import or a stylesheet
• scroll( options ) : Scroll monitoring for DOM updates - Example
