I would like to know if the module pattern or Constructor/protoType pattern is more applicable to my work.

Basically I am using unobtrusive javascript -- the HTML document has a reference to the .js file.

My understanding of the module pattern:

• call an INIT method (which is basically a public method i can create and return using the module pattern)


• In the INIT method, assign all click events etc.

This sounds like the perfect pattern for my situation, as I don't need to create Objects and inheritance hierarchies etc.

My understanding of the Constructor/Prototype pattern:

• for creating objects


• for using inheritance (i.e. Subtypes of a supertype)

Am I correct, that for providing unobtrusive javascript, the module pattern is ideal?
