famo.us bug on require LightBox

Question

I have a problem with famo.us when i make a simple require for LightBox.

var StateModifier = require('famous/modifiers/StateModifier');
var Lightbox = require('famous/views/LightBox');

var SlideView = require('views/SlideView');

I don't know why but console return this message:

Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found) http://localhost:8888/slideshow/start/src/famous/views/LightBox.js

My question is: why famo.us search on local directory instead search online?

Thanks, Andrea.

Answer 1

RequireJS doesn't search online for files. It's merely finding javascript files it's pointed to in requireConfig.

RequireJS automatically assumes that each file is a JS file, so the .js extensions are left out from the paths when you call require()

In this case, all you have is a typo. LightBox should be Lightbox - so rather than looking for LightBox.js you should be looking for Lightbox.js

ie:

var Lightbox = require(`famous/views/Lightbox`);
