Display jquery UI dialog after click on a bonsaijs shape

Hello I have this code 

$(function() {
  bonsai.run(document.getElementById('movie'), {
   code: function() {
     var rect= new Rect(0, 0, 100, 100);
     rect.on('multi:pointerdown', function(e) {
     $("#dialog-form").dialog("open");
     });
   },
   width: 500,
   height: 400,
  });
});

When I click on my rect I have this error :

ReferenceError: $ is not defined

How can I get a reference on jquery ?

BonsaiJS creates a new execution context (often a web worker) and the code you pass within bonsai.run is executed in a different scope, where jQuery isn't available. Details about how BonsaiJS executes code can be found here.

But to solve your problem you can communicate with the so-called BonsaiJS runner context like that:

$(function() {
  var movie = bonsai.run(document.getElementById('movie'), {
    // note: this function will be stringified and sent to the runner context
    code: function() {
      var rect= new Rect(0, 0, 100, 100).fill('red').addTo(stage);
      rect.on('multi:pointerdown', function(e) {
        // this is how you would pass data with your message
        stage.sendMessage('openDialog', {
          id: '#dialog-form'
        });
        // no data:
        // stage.sendMessage('openDialog', {});
      });
    },
    width: 500,
    height: 400,
  });
  movie.on('load', function() {
    movie.on('message:openDialog', function(data) {
      $(data.id).dialog("open");
    });
  });
});

  • Make sure $ variable is not over-written by Jquery variable in the core of jquery.

  • The order in which the script is loaded is important, run script after jQuery loads.

Maybe you are calling that function before the JQuery Javascript is included? Put the references to the JQuery scripts first.
