Half-assed port of event-map feature from backbone

ui.js.coffee

class UI
  container: null
  events: { }

  constructor: () ->
    this.bindEvents()

  bindEvents: () ->
    for event_type_and_selector, callback of @events
      [event_type, selector] = event_type_and_selector.split(' ')

class ChessBoard extends UI
  container: ".chessboard"
  events:
    "click .back": "transitionBackward"
    "click .next": "transitionForward"
    "click .flip": "flipBoard"

  transitionForward: () ->
  transitionBackward: () ->
  flipBoard: () ->

chessboard = new ChessBoard
