Finding modules

When working with a nested (DOM like) view structure, you need a way get to child view instances. FruitMachine has three APIs for this:

View#module();

Returns a single descendant View instance by module type. Similar to Element.prototype.querySelector.

apple.module('orange');
//=> orange

View#modules();

Returns a list of descendant View instance by module type. Similar to Element.prototype.querySelectorAll.

apple.modules('orange');
//=> [orange, orange, ...]

View#id();

Returns a single descendant View instance by id. Similar to document.getElementById.

apple.id('my_orange_1');
//=> orange
