Polymer 1.x: Wrapping a jQuery range slider inside a Polymer element

I'm trying to wrap the ion.rangeSlider inside a Polymer element but I'm having trouble getting it working in a jsBin.

Please show me how to get this working in a jsBin.

enter image description here

<!doctype html>
<head>
  <meta charset="utf-8">
  <base href="https://polygit.org/components/">
  <script src="webcomponentsjs/webcomponents-lite.min.js"></script>
  <link href="polymer/polymer.html" rel="import">
  <link href="paper-button/paper-button.html" rel="import">

  <script src="http://ionden.com/a/plugins/ion.rangeSlider/static/js/ion-rangeSlider/ion.rangeSlider.js"></script>
  <link rel="stylesheet" href="http://ionden.com/a/plugins/ion.rangeSlider/static/css/ion.rangeSlider.css">
  <link rel="stylesheet" href="http://ionden.com/a/plugins/ion.rangeSlider/static/css/ion.rangeSlider.skinFlat.css">
</head>
<body>

<dom-module id="x-element">

<template>
  <style>
    /** /

    /**/
    body {
        margin: 40px 15px;
        font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
        font-size: 12px;
    }
    .range-slider {
        position: relative;
        height: 80px;
    }
    .extra-controls {
        position: relative;
        border-top: 3px solid #000;
        padding: 10px 0 0;
    }
  </style>
  <div class="range-slider">
      <input type="text" class="js-range-slider" value="" />
  </div>
  <div class="extra-controls">
      Placeholder for some buttons to change slider behavior
  </div>
</template>

<script>
  (function(){
    Polymer({
      is: "x-element",
      properties: {
      }
    });
  })();
</script>
<script>
  $(document).ready(function () {
    var $range = $(".js-range-slider");

    $range.ionRangeSlider({
        type: "double",
        min: 100,
        max: 1000,
        from: 300,
        to: 800
    });
  });
</script>

</dom-module>

<x-element></x-element>

</body>

Update: It partially works as shown here when I do the following.

  1. Move the second <script> tag outside the Polymer element template and into the main document body (light DOM).
  2. Add the jQuery library resource in the <head>.
  3. Remove the $(document).ready(function(){

But I still need to get it to work with the javascript inside the Polymer element template.

You were close with your partially working example, where you called the ionRangeSlider function in ready. However, you first need to call the jQuery function $() with the slider input as an argument.

  ready: function(){
    $(this.$.slider).ionRangeSlider({
      type: "double",
      min: 100,
      max: 1000,
      from: 300,
      to: 800
    });
  }

Here's a working jsBin
