The CoffeeScript compiler is primarily available implemented on Node.js as a command line utility. You might expect that for Node.js projects, there should be a way where compilation could be handled transparently without intermediate Javascript files during development.
And you would be right. But how it works is not well documented, and so I wanted to make a note of that here. I found the information in a blog post by Max Aller.
Here is the summary for an application-homed install:
- Include coffee-script in your application package.json dependencies:
package.json
{ snipped... "dependencies": { "express": "3.0.6", "jade": "*", "coffee-script": "*" } snipped... }
- Install dependences ( npm install in the application folder)
- Import the module: require('coffee-script'); in your application
Once done, the .coffee extension is transparently compiled to Javascript in any require() statement.
For example:
For example:
require('coffee-script');
require('./myCoffeeScriptFile');
# will find, parse and execute ./myCoffeeScriptFile.coffee
As an experiment, I tried converting bootstrap.js and publish.js (in server/) to coffeescript, but Meteor was unhappy.
ReplyDeleteIt seems that coffeescript doesn't allow global variables -- you either get 'this.var' or locals.
The suggestion of using "window"-relative for globals doesn't work when there is no window -- (e.g., on the server).
Have you figured out how to use coffeescript global variables in server code?
Hi Alan, this hasn't really come up for me, but I found a this stackoverflow thread that has an amazingly indepth answer. Hopefully it will be helpful.

ReplyDeleteYou may compete against an opponent in real-time in multiplayer mode in Puzzle Game - Infinite Word Search Puzzles, which means you're both looking for words at the same time. It's possible that the word you just found is marked by the other player a fraction of a second before you can mark it. So, even though there is no countdown in this edition, you should speed quickly. After a battle, both sides can choose whether they wish to rematch or choose a new opponent.
