moduledefine.js

/**
 * Simplifies duplicating `define` definitions for `angular.module`.
 *
 * For example:
 *
 *      define(['app/module1', 'app/module2'], function(module1, module2){
 *          var module3 = angular.module('app.module3', ['app.module1', 'app.module2']);
 *          // your code
 *          return module3;
 *      });
 *
 * instead `moduleDefine` translates the module name's for you like:
 *
 *      define(['app/module1', 'app/module2'], function(module1, module2){
 *          var module3 = angular.moduleDefine('app.module3', arguments);
 *          return module3;
 *      });
 *
 * NOTE: This only works if in your module definitions if you return the module
 * at the end of the definition.
