node-jQuery

A stupid-simple wrapper over jQuery for Ender.JS (browser) and Node.JS (server). Currently 1.7.2.

Ender.JS

ender add jQuery

var $ = require('jQuery');

Node.JS

npm install jQuery jsdom htmlparser xmlhttprequest

var $ = require('jQuery');

Examples

$("<h1>test passes</h1>").appendTo("body");
console.log($("body").html());

In Node.JS you may also create separate window instances

var jsdom = require('jsdom').jsdom
  , myWindow = jsdom().createWindow()
  , $ = require('jQuery')
  , jq = require('jQuery').create()
  , jQuery = require('jQuery').create(myWindow)
  ;

$("<h1>test passes</h1>").appendTo("body");
console.log($("body").html());

jq("<h2>other test passes</h2>").appendTo("body");
console.log(jq("body").html());

jQuery("<h3>third test passes</h3>").appendTo("body");
console.log(jQuery("body").html());

Output:

<h1>test passes</h1>
<h2>other test passes</h2>
<h3>third test passes</h3>

TODO

• XMLHttpRequest should be submitted to npm as XMLHttpRequest to match how Ender.JS requires the same in the browser.
• Update Node Unit to 0.7.4
• Add dependencies to package.json
• Make compatible with node 0.6.15
• Lock dependency versions in package.json
