Writing a jquery plugin in coffeescript - how to get “(function($)” and “(jQuery)”?

Question

I am writing a jquery plugin in coffeescript but am not sure how to get the function wrapper part right.

My coffeescript starts with this:

$.fn.exten         


        

Answer 1

You could simply add the closure yourself and compile it with the --bare flag.

coffee -w -c --bare jquery.plugin.coffee

(($) ->
  # some code here
)(jQuery)
