I've created a brand new project in IDEA:
File-> New -> Project -> Static Web -> HTML5 Boilerplate.
If I create a .js hello world, it won't let me run it, and "Run" menu only allows me to "Edit Configurations".
I checked JS Plugin and everything seems to be OK and activated, any hint?
UPDATE: Screenshot proving that is actually possible to execute JS code on IDEA Console:
Just as it's mentioned in the #Rory O'Kane comment, HTML5 Boilerplate is a web application supposed to be run in browser. To run it in IDEA, right-click the index.html in project root directory and choose Run 'Index.html' or Debug 'index.html' - application will be started on the built-in webserver

The tutor of my video tutorial compiles javascript/react on save with his VS Code editor. Mine dont.
How can I config VS Code to do this?
Remark:
I find solution for typescript "Visual Studio Code - compile on save", but suggested solution does not work for me.
#added information:
the project is created with create.react-app. npm start opens chrome, and compilation errors are then shown in Chrome's DEV-Console, as noted by Shishani . My tutor has the code compiled on VS Code Terminal console. This offers a quick check of the code compilation before I go to webbrowser, to check for errors there, which seems to me much more intimidating with it's long callstacks.
If you create your React project with create-react-app, and then start it with npm start, it compiles automatically on save. Also, if it's not a React project, but just JS/HTML/CSS, you can open your project with the "Live Server" extension in VSCode, and it will update your page every time you save a file in your VSCode workspace.
You can even do like I do, and enable constant autosave, with the AutoSave: afterDelay setting in VSCode (if you dare), and then set the save delay to a super small number (mine is 2ms) so you don't even need to hit save anymore (go to File>Preferences>Settings>[Search "Auto Save"]).
If you have created react project using there official cli tool (create-react-app) then on saving js files it gets re-compile. This is because they are using webpack bundler behind the scene.
If you have created normal html or js files without any such cli tools then it won't work directly, You have to use some kind of bundler with dev-server support to do it.
Parcel! is a great bundler to use without configuration
I am new to Oracle Jet. Now I want to use NetBeans to create a simple application with pre-defined templates downloaded from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/jet/downloads/index.html.
The creation steps are:
file - new project - Categories (HTML5/JavaScript) and Projects (HTML5/JS Application) -select the template - Jet-Template Web Basic.zip.
But when I open index.html under Site Root in this application, the "Run" tab is not available. Also there is no "run" when right click on index.html.
I tried all other templates in the download page but none of them can work.
Do you have an idea on this?
IDE version: NetBeans 8.1
Not sure why that happens. Might be a bug...
2 work-arounds:
Right-click on the project under the Projects tab. You'll notice the Run function is enabled here.
(Better option) Extract the zip contents, choose 'Open Project' in Netbeans and navigate to the extracted folder. You'll notice that the Run function is available for index.html if you open the project this way.
I am trying to learn Electron (Atom-Shell) but I am finding it pretty tough to find documentation for it...
I am simply trying to figure out how to create a link with in index.html, and have it open a terminal window or run some sort of program.
I learn languages by learning specific tasks as I need them in a program, so that is why I am asking so then I can utilize the technique used in other ways in my programs.
Thank you for helping.
Well, essentially Electron is just a customised version of a Chromium browser that comes packaged with Nodejs and some really cool packages that basically allow you to run the custom browser as if it was a native platform application. Because of that creating an Electron app is very similar to creating a web-app that has a Nodejs back-end.
So to get started with a simple "Hello World!" app, you can just run the following npm...
npm install electron-prebuilt --save-dev
Once the npm is installed you'll need three files to run an Electron app.
A package.json file
A javascript file (default is main.js)
An html file (default is index.html)
See this GitHub repo for a quick copy/paste version of each and more detailed instructions: https://github.com/mafintosh/electron-prebuilt
after that you're ready to simply run your app...
$ electron .
Finally, one way to open a terminal window would be to use an onclick attribute in your html to trigger a child_process, found here, in a function.
That's it! You should be able to edit your html and javascript files as you would for any web-app, and take advantage of the added features that Electron provides.
I'd also check out these resources for more info:
A Quick Start intro to how Electron works -- https://github.com/atom/electron/blob/master/docs/tutorial/quick-start.md
The Atom discussion forum (Because Atom was built with Electron, and is made to be hackable, the community is quite active) -- https://discuss.atom.io/c/electron
A cool repo to keep up with the latest info. It includes links for apps that currently use Electron, tutorials, videos, and more --
https://github.com/sindresorhus/awesome-electron
I hope that helps!
I am trying to upload some code html and javascript code into phonegap to develop this app however when I update the files the program still runs the old code as to what was in the html file before. I have even started a new project and it will not change the old index.html image even though the code behind it is different. I'm really confused as to why this is and I was wondering what I could do to solve this. I even searched through the workspace index.html file and it is the correct file that I want in there but upon running it i am given the same your device is ready hello world. I checked the location of the files and everything is correct. It is very confusing. I am using eclipse by the way not phonegap build if that helps.
you need to build your project again.
cordova build android
But make sure you edit your files in www folder in parent folder.
Make sure you are updating the WWW file in the root Phonegap folder. Then you can run the command:
$ cordova build
or
$ phonegap build
I created a Test.js file and wrote two lines of JS code in it:
var a = 5;
console.log("The result is = " + a);
The output should be:
"The result is = 5"
Is there a way I can see this in Aptana Scripting console, instead of integrating the JS code in a HTML file and saving/refreshing it?
Can any other IDE, say Netbeans help, if not Aptana?
Any advise would be highly appreciated.
Regards
Roy
I think that it would be best if you give Node.js a try. This way, you get to call node test.js on a console window and see the result.
I'm pretty sure that console is meant for viewing the output of Aptana's Ruby-based commands (installed under the Commands menu). It might be possible to follow the instructions here: http://www.chromium.org/for-testers/enable-logging and then tail the resulting log file in a Terminal panel (not the same as a console window).
I'm afraid it is not possible.
But What I did was to setup a simple workbench.html file, where in the header I put
[...]
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="js/myJsFile.js"></script>
and then modified the myJsFile.js and saved it.
Another very intersting possibility is given by http://www.developer.nokia.com/Community/Wiki/Aptana_WRT_Plugin:_Displaying_log_messages_in_Output_console
just check it
It's not exactly what you asked, but it might point you in the right direction. There's a project called EclipseMonkey ... I'm not sure the status. Here's a working (?) example. Your mileage will vary. http://blogs.edgehill.ac.uk/webservices/2008/10/16/aptana-outline-auto-expansion-monkeyed/
What you can do is you can download node.js from node.js, download the package and follow the installation instructions on the screen.
If using a Windows, the node.js package comes with its own interactive command prompt which you can open. To run a js file on windows, open the windows command prompt, type in node, then the name of your file e.g. test.js. Node.js should run your file.
If using a Mac, the node.js package runs through the terminal application on the mac. To run a file, type in node, then the name of your file e.g. test.js, node.js should run the file.
Aptana Studio 3 has the ability to open the terminal inside the IDE itself. Save your file in Aptana Studio and follow the instructions to run a file on the mac.
By the way, keep your files labelled in lowercase letters, I tried using Uppercase for the first letter and it did not work.
Hope that helps.
