AMD Module Loading Error with Mustache using RequireJS - backbone.js

Question

I am following the tuturoial here: http://backbonetutorials.com/organizing-backbone-using-modules/ and all I would like to do is use Mustache instead of underscore.js for my templating engine in a Backbone View. Everything is working as expected until I try to do the replacement of Mustache. Firebug gives me this:
Load timeout for modules: Mustache
My Mustache wrapper (in libs/mustache/mustache-wrap.js) is like so:
define(['libs/mustache/mustache'], function(){
// Tell Require.js that this module returns a reference to Mustache
return Mustache;
});
Here is the code for my Backbone View:
// Protocol Detail View
define([
'jQuery',
'Underscore',
'Backbone',
'Mustache',
'collections/protocols',
'text!templates/protocol/protocoldetail.html'
], function($, _, Backbone, Mustache, protocolCollection, protocolDetailTemplate){
var protocolDetailView = Backbone.View.extend({
el: "#asset-detail",
render: function( pid ){
this.collection = new protocolCollection;
this.collection.fetch();
var p = this.collection.getByCid('c'+pid);
var template = "{{name}}";
htmlr = Mustache.to_html(template, p);
$(this.el).html(htmlr);
//var compiledTemplate = _.template( protocolDetailTemplate, { protocol: protocol });
//$(this.el).html(compiledTemplate);
},
events: {
"submit #asset-owner": "chown"
},
chown: function ( pid ){
console.log("Protocol Detail View chown callback.")
}
});
return new protocolDetailView;
});
My main.js file has the following config:
require.config({
paths: {
jQuery: 'libs/jquery/jquery',
jQueryUI: '//ajax.aspnetcdn.com/ajax/jquery.ui/1.8.17/jquery-ui.min',
jstree: 'libs/jstree/jquery.jstree',
Mustache: 'libs/mustache/mustache-wrap',
Underscore: 'libs/underscore/underscore',
Backbone: 'libs/backbone/backbone'
}
});

Answer 1

In you main.js file where you have all you're requires, make sure to add Mustache to the config, and don't worry about the wrapper and just try loading Mustache directly.
require.config({
'paths': {
"underscore": "libs/underscore",
"backbone": "libs/backbone",
"Mustache": "libs/mustache/mustache"
}
});
That might help...
Also, here are some starter apps to help you out on your require, backbone journey.

Clone the repository from github:
$ git clone https://github.com/janl/mustache.js.git
Then, build the RequireJS specific version of the library:
$ rake requirejs
Use the resulting file 'requirejs.mustache.js' as your mustache library.

Use Twitter's mustache repository!
Here is what worked for me (Ubuntu 12.04):
sudo apt-get install rake ruby-rspec
git clone git://github.com/twitter/mustache.js.git
cd mustache.js/
rake requirejs
