I'm trying to use requireJS to add this library/plug-in to jquery.
I've looked at the documentation, and other S.O. questions, and I still can't figure out what's going wrong.
Using backbone and require as an example: I'm pretty sure I need to use shim in my main.js file. I'm also pretty sure that I need to still load the plug-in in the particular file I want to use it in (Even though I don't actually use the rangyInputs object in the body of the function) (which I do for backbone). Really, I just want to bind the functions from the rangyInputs library to jquery once, and then just require jquery in all the files I need those functions.
define([
'jquery',
'underscore',
'backbone'
, 'views/listView'
, 'sockets'
, 'collections/nodesCollection'
, 'views/listView'
, 'models/node'
, 'rangyInputs' //I define the path to this like I do the path for backbone in main.js
],
function($, _, Backbone, ListView, io, nodesCollection, listView, nodeModel ,rangyInputs){
The un-minified library has this at the end:
$.fn.extend({
getSelection: jQuerify(getSelection, false),
setSelection: jQuerify(setSelection, true),
collapseSelection: jQuerify(collapseSelection, true),
deleteSelectedText: jQuerify(deleteSelectedText, true),
deleteText: jQuerify(deleteText, true),
extractSelectedText: jQuerify(extractSelectedText, false),
insertText: jQuerify(insertText, true),
replaceSelectedText: jQuerify(replaceSelectedText, true),
surroundSelectedText: jQuerify(surroundSelectedText, true)
});
The documentation and gives examples where of using "exports" for shim, but I don't think I can use this since I have multiple things I'm exporting. (and I'm not exactly sure how exports works).
Thanks!
EDIT: I tried applying this solution so that I could include a different plug-in, and it didn't work, so I asked another question here
