no-jquery v0.0.2
no-jquery
This library (if you can call it that) does a very simple thing: restoring the
original value of $ and removing jQuery from the global window object.
Why?
That's a good question. It sounds like a silly idea to include jQuery and then use another library just to remove it, but sometimes it could be useful.
One use case is for when you need to include jQuery up to a certain
point, and then make sure that it's no longer used by subsequent scripts. In
my case, I wanted jQuery to be available for my Chai assertions using
chai-jquery, but not within the
application code itself. Using chai-jquery for DOM assertions is convenient,
but I don't need jQuery in my application, and want to make sure that any
libraries that I use don't find jQuery on the global scope and try to use it
during test execution. Also, if I were to use jQuery in my application, I'd
include it as a dependency through Bower, meaning that during test execution
jQuery would try to load twice, and that could be nasty!
Including this script will remove $ and jQuery from the window and
reassign it to window.no$, if jQuery is found in the first place.
Install
Use bower:
bower install no-jquery --save-devOr NPM:
npm install no-jquery --save-devUsage
Just include the script in the right place.
