Goal

gretel.js is a javascript micro-library that targets the simplification of the routing of requests in an all-in-one-page application. Meaning that the developer will be able to simply define routes and what to do when a URL matches the route.

Usage

1. Include the gretel.js script in the head section of your page:

    <script src="gretel.js"></script>
   

   If you do not wish the library to auto-install itself, define the variable Gretel_disable_autostart. You can install the router by manually calling Gretel.install().

2. Register your routes:

    Gretel.registerRoute("this/is/a/route/with/a/{param}/and/an/[{optionalid}]", handler, thisObj);
   

Example

See index.html for an usage example.
