thywill/applications/echo/lib/bootstrapManifest.js

A Node.js clustered framework for single page web applications based on asynchronous messaging.

/**
 * @fileOverview
 * The bootstrap manifest is a way of listing files that will be turned into
 * bootstrap Resources and presented to a client immediately on connection.
 * The exported manifest must be passed to this function:
 *
 * Application#storeBootstrapResourcesFromManifest
 *
 * This should be done during the invocation of:
 *
 * Application#_defineBootstrapResources
 *
 * Bootstrap Resources can be otherwise be created and stored through
 * ClientInterface, ResourceManager, and Application class methods. This is
 * appropriate for Resources that must be constructed or templated.
