before optimization, the method is to load the css file by a link element.
during optimization, the optimizer writes the content of css files into modules.
after optimization, the modules inject styles into the HTML doc by a style element.
you'll need two files,
css.js //before optimization
css-build.js //for optimization
load css files by the requirejs plugin syntax
requirejs(['css!style.css','css!more.css','othermodules'],function(css1,css2,c){
//css loaded, but I cannot be sure that they are already parsed by browser.
});
perform optimization by
node r.js -o build.js
This repository is a perfect usage example.
There is a more powerful library having same intention as this one. If you need more power, try guybedford/require-css.
