javascript - jQuery not available as "$" when using webpack's ProvidePlugin - Stack Overflow

admin管理员组

文章数量:1404924

I am attempting to use jQuery as $ in my webpack application's entry index.js file, and I am receiving this error when running my application in the browser:

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'fn' of undefined

This is due to a line in a module I am importing called bootstrap-switch, and the line in question is:

$.fn.bootstrapSwitch = function() {

So I do not have $ working as a global variable. I followed instructions on the ProvidePlugin docs, as shown below. I also tried the answer provided in this question but that didn't work.

This is an abbreviated version of my webpack.config.js file:

module.exports = {
    entry: {
        main: './src/index.js'
    },
    plugins: {
        new webpack.ProvidePlugin({
            $: 'jquery',
            jQuery: 'jquery'
        })
    }
}

And this is my src/index.js file:

import 'bootstrap-switch';

console.log('I am running');

Any help would be much appreciated.

EDIT

A previous version of this question asked about a build error that was actually an ESLint error. Thank you to @UjinT34 for helping me resolve that problem and focus on the actual error outlined above.

• I had a similar issue with a legacy jQuery plugin wanting to use the jQuery from the window — it wanted window.jQuery, but yours might be after window.$. stackoverflow./a/48690626/5796134 – Ito Pizarro Commented Mar 8, 2019 at 20:39
• Aaaaaand there we go! Yes, that was the problem! Very sneaky of the plugin. It uses a self-executing function to initialize, and passes itself window.jQuery. Adding in the configuration from the linked question's answer solved this problem. If you'd like to link to it in an answer, I will accept it. – MegaMatt Commented Mar 8, 2019 at 20:44

I'm adding this as an answer for future users to find.

Try adding 'window.jQuery': 'jquery' to your webpack.ProvidePlugin() settings.

module.exports = {
    ...
    plugins: [
        new webpack.ProvidePlugin( {
            $: 'jquery',
            jQuery: 'jquery',
            'window.jQuery': 'jquery'
        } )
    ]
};

no-undef is a ESlint error. It doesn't know about your webpack setup. You can specify global variables in esling config:

{
    "globals": {
        "$": "readonly",
        "jQuery": "readonly"
    }
}
