I have tried number of methods posted on StackOverflow to use jquery-ui in angular 6 component but none of them worked. For example,
I ran npm install jquery jquery-ui to install jquery and jquery-ui.
Included following in angular.json
"scripts": [ "node_modules/jquery/dist/jquery.js", "node_modules/jquery-ui-dist/jquery-ui.js",
Error is as follows:
AppComponent_Host.ngfactory.js [sm]:1ERROR TypeError: jquery__WEBPACK_IMPORTED_MODULE_1__(...).slider is not a function

import { Component, AfterContentInit } from '@angular/core';
import * as $ from 'jquery';
@Component({

})
export class AppComponent implements AfterContentInit {
title = 'MDK';
ngAfterContentInit() {
$( "#slider" ).slider({
range: true,
values: [ 17, 67 ]
});
}
}
Another post suggested that I should not use angular.json of angular 6 at all but use index.html to include scripts but it also did not worked.
I included following in index.html but even then same error appeared
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-2.2.4.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.12.1/jquery-ui.min.js"></script>
Please update your scripts part in angular.json file
If you write
then only the code for
jquery
(and not extra plugins, likejquery-ui
) will be imported by typescript compiler into the$
variable.If you use
Then you are just notifying typescript that this variable exist. In that case,
$
will contain whatever what assigned to it in the scripts you imported inangular.json
, which isjquery
ANDjquery-ui
plugins
