My goals are to include the following in my HTML file and have them all work properly:
index.html:
<script type="text/javascript" src="./vendor.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="./app.js"></script>
$(document).ready(function() {
// jQuery should be available as `window.$`
$(".myclass").doSomethingWithJquery();
}
<div class="row">
<h1 class="col-md-3 col-md-offset-3">
I should be able to use bootstrap, including bootstrap's javascript libraries, in my templates
</h1>
</div>
<!-- I should be able to use app.js, with its various require('module')
statements and attach rendered HTML to the DOM (I'm using React) -->
<div id="attach-app-js"></div>
Therefore:
- jQuery should be available as a global
$
variable. - Bootstrap's javascript functions should also work, as they're part of vendor.js
- My
app.js
should also work and not re-declare variables like$
that is already declared under global scope viavendor.js
.
See the files below. My current solution errors where I have $(".myclass").doSomethingWithJquery();
When my internet is off, I get the error:
Uncaught ReferenceError: $ is not defined
...which makes me think that (maybe) snackbarjs or another module is leaking jQuery to global scope.
Then, when I change the line in vendor.js
to: var $ = jQuery = require('jquery');
I get the error:
Uncaught ReferenceError: $ is not defined
but now it's getting called on the line $(document).ready(function.....
Third, if I comment out vendor.js
entirely, I get both errors:
Uncaught ReferenceError: $ is not defined
Uncaught ReferenceError: jQuery is not defined
How can I get this frontend setup to correctly shim variables when necessary in the global scope, and not if it's not necessary??
