Defining can conrtollers:
...
var
...
MyConstructor
...
=
...
can.Control({object
...
fields})
...
creates a constructor that can be new'd
...
to
...
create
...
the
...
actual
...
controller.
...
{object
...
fields}
...
contains data
...
fields
...
and
...
functions
...
for
...
the
...
controller.
...
The
...
special
...
function
...
init()
...
is
...
called
...
when
...
the
...
consctrctor
...
is
...
new'd
...
A
...
function
...
of
...
the
...
form
...
"<event
...
name>":
...
...
...
defines
...
an
...
event
...
listener
...
to
...
be
...
attached
...
to
...
the
...
associateddiv
...
when
...
the
...
controller
...
is
...
created.
...
The
...
special
...
form
...
"li
...
<event
...
name>":...
...
will
...
attach
...
the
...
listener
...
individually
...
to
...
every
...
list
...
element
...
in
...
the
...
div.
...
This
...
is
...
so
...
the
...
function
...
may
...
use
...
the
...
current
...
element
...
to
...
resolve
...
which
...
entry
...
the
...
user
...
is
...
interracting
...
with

Instantiating controllers
Controllers shoudl be instantiated in the document ready callback. You instatiate then by calling
new <constructor>('#<div
...
name
...
to
...
attach
...
to>', {
...
<parameters>
...
}
...
)
<parameters>
...
is
...
available
...
inside
...
the
...
init:
...
function
...
as
...
this.
...
options
You should use parameters to pass through any models for view construction
3. Instantiating view
Views should be instantiated in the controller init: function and are created by calling
can.view(<path
...
to
...
ejs
...
file>, {<parameters>]})
...
The
...
view
...
shoudl
...
be
...
attached
...
to
...
the
...
contoller's
...
element
...
at
...
this.element.html
...
4. Creating Observables
An observable can be created by using new can.
...
Observe({<data fields>})
The observable should be passed through in a parameter in the can.view() call for use by the ejs code
