RequireJS Paths Not Work

I'm new to RequireJS and trying to use it. I followed an example in RequireJS docs but there is some problem. I can load the jquery but not app/shell. Root |__index.html |__javas

Solution 1:

Because you have multiple folder levels, you have to set your baseUrl as the root of your application. If you want to use require(['jquery']) instead of require(['libs/jquery']), you have to specify the "alias" of it in your configuration.

requirejs.config({
    baseUrl:'javascripts',
    paths:{
            jquery: 'libs/jquery'
        }
    });

Solution 2:

Try adding your main.js file explicitly after your requirejs script tag:

<script src="javascripts/libs/require.js"></script>
<script src="javascripts/main.js"></script>

This will load your configuration file synchronously after loading requirejs thus making sure the paths are set before a module is called. Hope it helps.
