MontageRequire Issue

[Abdul Mohammed]

Hello Everyone,

                       Please I am new to MontageJS and I am trying to run the Hello MontageJS example. First of all it does not show the version number when I use minit to serve the project. Also at step 5, after I have created the component, added the html tags and the snippet within the script tags, saving the changes and refreshing does not produce any noticable difference. I still have a blank page. When I turn on the javascript console (using chrome to test), I get this stacktrace:

Error in http://localhost:8083/ui/version.reel/: ReferenceError: montageRequire is not defined

    at Version.exports.Version.Component.specialize.montageDescription.get [as montageDescription] (http://localhost:8083/ui/version.reel/version.js:20:20)

Uncaught ReferenceError: montageRequire is not defined localhost:8083/node_modules/montage/packages/mr/packages/q/q.js:132

My knowledge of javascript is criminally little so I really don't how to proceed. Any pointers that would lead to a solution would be greatly appreciated. 

Thanks

Hi Mohammed,

Thanks for trying Montage and sorry to hear about that error you’re running into. In the project you created running minit, open the file ui/version.reel/version.js and replace the whole “montageDescription” method by:

    montageDescription: {

        get: function() {

            return ( typeof montageRequire !== "undefined" ? montageRequire : mr).packageDescription;

        }

    }

We made a change of symbol referencing Montage require and we forgot to update minit.

What you can also do is work with Montage in Montage Studio. Register here: http://montagestudio.com/reveal/ . You’ll receive an email with instructions. Montage Studio is and will stay free to use for open source projects. All you need is a Github account. It’s a new vision for web development, marrying the benefits of an open source, elegant, high quality framework like MontageJS with a dedicated visual authoring environment in the cloud.

Don’t hesitate to reach out if you have questions! 

Thanks,

Benoit
