jQuery is loaded and available out of the box on all Igloo pages.
jQuery can be used anywhere on an Igloo in the following ways:
/**
* @description "Quick & Dirty" methods to use jQuery
*/
jQuery('#element');
/**
* @description If more than one line is required use a variable
*/
var $j = jQuery.noConflict();
$(document).ready(function () {
var el = $j('#element');
});
The typical JavaScript framework alias ($) is bound to mooTools on the Igloo platform, therefore the best way to write a jQuery-based web application is to wrap your code in the following IIFE where applicable:
/**
* @namespace
* @description Basic JavaScript IIFE that sets the $ identifier alias to 'jQuery'
*/
(function ($) {
// My custom Igloo jQuery application
$(document).ready(function () {
console.log(greeting);
});
})(jQuery);
The current version of jQuery implemented on the Igloo platform is 1.11.0
/**
* @description Print the current version of jQuery to the console
*/
if (typeof jQuery != 'undefined') {
console.log(jQuery.fn.jquery);
}
