How to load jQuery Migrate for jQuery via RequireJS?

Question

Can I load jQuery migrate via RequireJS? I don't understand how the timing can be handled correctly. See this example:

require([
  'jquery',
  'jqmigrate'
], function ($) {
  if ($.browser.msie) {...}
});

Isn't is possible that jqmigrate will load before jquery? Also, I do not want to keep loading jqmigrate explicitly in every module. Any way to do this in the require.config so it loads jqmigrate automatically when jQuery is required?

There are a couple of things you will need:

1. make sure jqmigrate depends on jquery.
2. you could write a wrapper module that include both, and return jquery, so your require.config could look like:

jquery-wrapper.js:

define(['jquery-src', 'jqmigrate'], function ($) {
  return $;
})

require.config

{
  paths: {
    'jquery-src' : '/path/to/jquery',
    'jqmigrate': '/path/to/jqmigrate',
    'jquery': '/path/to/jquery-wrapper'
  }
}
