Odoo 11 Web JS Framework doesn't initialize my module and thus doesn't register my client action

Question

I'm following the Building Interface Extensions (https://www.odoo.com/documentation/11.0/howtos/web.html) with Odoo 11.
In the guide, it is stated that
"In Odoo web, modules are declared as functions set on the global odoo variable. The function's name must be the same as the addon (in this case oepetstore) so the framework can find it, and automatically initialize it."
But my module isn't being initialized and I get the following error:
"Action error - Could not find client action 'petstore.hom

Unlike the guide, I had to define my module using odoo.require :

odoo.define('PetStoreHomePage', function(require){
    "use strict";

    var core = require('web.core');
    var Widget = require('web.Widget');

    var HomePageWidget = Widget.extend({
        template: 'HomePageTemplate',
        start: function() {
            this.$el.append($('<div>').text('Hello dear Odoo user!'));
        }
    });

    core.action_registry.add('petstore.homepage', HomePageWidget);
});

' ). text ( 'Hello dear Odoo user!' )); } }); core . action_registry . add ( 'petstore.homepage' , HomePageWidget ); });
