Alias support #2

Closed djanowski closed 10 years ago

djanowski commented 10 years ago

I want to bring support for aliases in builder2. I'd need them here, right?

jonathanong commented 10 years ago

yeah i need to add this, but i'm not sure i want to add this in production. what's your use-case for aliases?

djanowski commented 10 years ago

Only now did I understand that the builder is rewriting my requires to the exact registered versions.

The use case that prompted me to create this issue is that I wanted to require from outside the bundle. But I know that's not super clean, I'll try to change the approach and reopen if necessary.

Thanks.

okay. i'm not totally against this. i'm thinking about allowing aliases on a per-component basis. if we alias EVERYTHING people are going to complain that bundles are bloated. we also have to think of ES6 - not sure how to alias ES6 modules when that time comes.
