commonjsStrictGlobal.js

// Uses CommonJS, AMD or browser globals to create a module. This example
// creates a global even when AMD is used. This is useful if you have some
// scripts that are loaded by an AMD loader, but they still want access to
// globals. If you do not need to export a global for the AMD case, see
// commonjsStrict.js.

// If you just want to support Node, or other CommonJS-like environments that
// support module.exports, and you are not creating a module that has a
// circular dependency, then see returnExportsGlobal.js instead. It will allow
// you to export a function as the module value.

// Defines a module "commonJsStrictGlobal" that depends another module called
// "b". Note that the name of the module is implied by the file name. It is
// best if the file name and the exported global have matching names.

// If the 'b' module also uses this type of boilerplate, then
// in the browser, it will create a global .b that is used below.

(function (root, factory) {
    if (typeof define === 'function' && define.amd) {
        // AMD. Register as an anonymous module.
        define(['exports', 'b'], function (exports, b) {
            factory((root.commonJsStrictGlobal = exports), b);
        });
    } else if (typeof exports === 'object') {
        // CommonJS
        factory(exports, require('b'));
    } else {
        // Browser globals
        factory((root.commonJsStrictGlobal = {}), root.b);
    }
}(this, function (exports, b) {
    //use b in some fashion.

    // attach properties to the exports object to define
    // the exported module properties.
    exports.action = function () {};
