Hi all,
I might not be the first person to ask such question but I didn't found
that much information regarding my issue on the official Nashorn page.
*Context*: In an open-source project I'm working on, I'm using JavaFx
WebView to develop a client application written mostly in JavaScript
(RequireJS, Backbone, JQuery, Handlebars, etc). The application is
running perfectly. I nevertheless want to add a Command-Line Interface
(CLI) to let users interact with the application (in my case access a
compiler written in JS) from their terminal without having to open a
windowed interface (GUI). I therefore want to execute some JS code
without the use of the JavaFx WebView. As a result I'm trying to make
use of Nashorn!
*Problem*: The code I'm trying to execute in the Nashorn script engine
is using third party libraries such as Backbone Models and JQuery for
the generation and manipulation of HTML (I do not need to render
anything, just to generate HTML). I therefore tried to load JQuery
library within Nashorn but I got a strange error...
The code:
|> ScriptEngine engine = manager.getEngineByName("nashorn");
engine.eval(new
InputStreamReader(CLI.class.getResourceAsStream("/io/dahuapp/core/scripts/jquery.js")));
|
The error:

I tracked the error down in the JQuery code and the error is coming from
the block:
|setDocument = Sizzle.setDocument = function( node ) {
var hasCompare,
doc = node ? node.ownerDocument || node : preferredDoc,
**parent = doc.defaultView;** // *ERROR*
// If no document and documentElement is available, return
if ( doc === document || doc.nodeType !== 9 || !doc.documentElement ) {
return document;
}
....
|
*Question*:
1. is it possible to load any third party library within Nashorn ?
2. does someone tried to load JQuery inside Nashorn ?
3. does someone have an idea from where this error might come from?
Thanks,
Rémi
