I know this has already been discussed, but after searching for a while I can't figure out why my small setup does not load jquery correctly with requireJS.
I'm running a small sample html page from 'file://' and try to load 2 modules with a call to require:
- jquery
- a custom module I wrote
If my custom module loads correctly (i can use it with its alias in the require call, jquery is always undefined)
I tried to setup paths in require.config, as well as shim (exporting '$' or 'jQuery') but it does not work.
The only way i can get jquery to correctly load, is removing all paths definition and naming the jquery file on my filesystem 'jquery.js'
Here is my config:
main.js:
require.config({
baseUrl: 'scripts',
paths: {
jquery: 'jquery-2.1.3.min' //does not work
//jquery: 'http://code.jquery.com/jquery-2.1.3.min.js' //does not work either
}
});
console.log( "main.js is loaded" ); //this is correctly ouputed to the console
test.html:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<!--
... page content ...
-->
<!-- main.js is loaded from data-main -->
<script data-main="scripts/main" src="scripts/require.js"></script>
<script type='text/javascript'>
require(
['jquery','custom'],
function($, Custom){
console.info('$:');
console.info($); //outputs undefined
console.info('Custom:');
console.info(Custom); //outputs my custom object
});
</script>
</body>
</html>
Once again, it works if I remove all paths definition for jquery, and simply name my jquery js file 'jquery.js' but this is sloppy.
Can somebody points me on the right way to go ?
