Error: jQuery requires a window with a document

Question

So everything was working just fine and great until doing npm update and now things do not work quite as they used to.

A little background: in my code I use jquery

Answer 1

I solved it. had to first remove jsdom and jquery then npm install jsdom jquery.

Then this:

var jsdom = require("jsdom"); 
$ = require("jquery")(jsdom.jsdom().createWindow()); 

Turns out that it was important that I had the latest version. Otherwise it didn't work..
