of course I wouldn't be accessing map.watch but running map.attr("watch"); which is when the error is thrown
it returns the toString function reference
it does not throw an error
m.attr("toString", "something"); throws TypeError: [].slice is not a function
console.log(map.watch)
if you use get and set directly, it works fine
only when using attr does it not work correctly (or accessing the property directly like above)
I bet we are not using hasOwnProperty
@gsmeets That is odd. I found this in
component.js, but no calls to .off(): https://github.com/bitovi/canjs/blob/master/component/component.js#L272-L277
it has to do with block statements being a direct child of a component
I'll see if I can create a simple testcase and I'll create a github issue
@matthewp you were 100% correct on the lack of use of hasOwnProperty adding that in three places was the only fix
Do you have a test written? If you do, submit a PR and we can bisect the issue.
Thanks for digging into that.

Hi - I'm wondering if can.js models can be used in a node.js environment. (I haven't found anything solid online either way.) We'd like to do some server-side orchestration - think collecting order data from various different services - and it would be great to re-use code. However, it doesn't seem to be as straightforward as I hoped, as steal is throwing some errors trying to pull in can. Is there an example somewhere in the docs, or is this a bad idea in general?
@tmcdonnell87 We recently started a project for dealing with this exact scenario. Check it out: http://donejs.com/
One of the beautiful aspects of the DoneJS project is that you can re-use ALL of your code on client and server (templates, components, models, etc)
@justinbmeyer @daffl and @matthewp can speak more to it if you have specific questions.
It doesn't seem that done has been updated in a couple years - is it actively maintained?
I don’t think that’s the codebase that backs http://donejs.com
I should had been clear, DoneJS is currently in an alpha/beta state.
(not sure which unfortunately)
To that point it’s primarly made up of CanJS/StealJS/DocumentJS and all of those are actively maintained.
@tmcdonnell87 The repository is at https://github.com/donejs/donejs. Working on cleaning that up a little. If you are only looking for server side rendering you also might want to have a look at the CanJS minor branch and https://github.com/canjs/can-ssr
