Shimming window[“jQuery”]

   February 23, 2021  1 Comment on Shimming window[“jQuery”]

This configuration does not replace window[“jQuery”] with require(“jquery”) in knockout (v. 3.3.0) module.
What should I do to avoid exposing jQuery in window and provide knockout with jQuery?

new webpack.ProvidePlugin({
      'window.jQuery': 'jquery',
      'jQuery': 'jquery',
      'window["jQuery"]': 'jquery'
    })

  1. @blazkovicz, if you are still interested on this, I solved this issue on my own by using a custom loader (maybe adding a generic text replacement loader would be a better solution):

    ko-loader.js:

    module.exports = function(source) {
  this.cacheable();
  return source.replace('jQueryInstance = window["jQuery"]', 'jQueryInstance = require("jquery")');
};

    in webpack.config.js:

        ,resolveLoader: {
      alias: { 'ko-loader': __dirname + '/ko-loader' }
    }
    ,module: {
        loaders: [
          { test: /knockout-latest\.debug\.js$/, loader: 'ko-loader'}
        ]
    }

    I hope that helps.
