@gsmeets @phillipskevin thanks for your insights on this. Will check to see if I have 2 versions of jquery on the page. I believe I don't since I only am importing jquery once on the page using define.
I am also importing can (ver 3.0) using define, but I believe the new can version does not install jquery as a dependency.
I think it still does
it won’t eventually, but it looks like it still does now
Thanks @phillipskevin for the inputs, I will check. But, I think can.ajaxprefilter will work for what I am trying to do. Thanks for your help there.
ok, sounds good
what's the proper way to bind a component's event to a method on a sibling in 2.3? (is there even a way to do that?)
or should I just expose the sibling's viewModel to the parent, and call methods directly on it?
related question, what is the "references scope" in 2.3? That term is coined a few times, but I can't find a page describing the concept
that still doesn't explain what that scope is
is it just some extra scope that's not accessible from the parent component? i.e. it's a view-only scope
Is it possible to use the define plugin to define toString methods on properties? Like pythons __repr__ method on a class. For example:
myMap.attr('myProper') //returns 'an_identifier'but using myMap.myProper in a stache template might return a more readable 'An Identifier'
what about using a helper in stache
Not to string, but there is serialize
what is the purpose of the toString?
what is toStringing it?
It would be really cool to have the template display the toString value of the property, while the value of the property might be something else. A helper would do it, yes.
The template would be calling the
toString or whatever its called. Does a stache template call the serialize method on the property?
Just a thought, its definitely already possible with helpers, or even using another property with a getter. I guess this would just define a specific properties display.
@matthewp after looking into it, it seems like this is exactly what the
serialize is for. But is it possible to get the serialized value of a property from a stache template?
@gsmeets the references scope is private to the template/file so the view model cannot access it, and scope reads within child components do not bubble to it. It's great for sibling communication. Example:
<my-foo {^.}="*foo" />
<my-bar (some-event)="*foo.someMethod()" />
Aye, that's precisely what I need
Already figured it out by viewing the source code :) oh well, that sold the deal to my manager, I can upgrade to 2.3 this iteration
Nice
