Remove jQuery dependancy for Site js (!108) · Merge requests · Custom D / Zon Core

Sam Sehnert requested to merge hotfix/jquery_removal into master Jul 28, 2017

What I did

This might affect the way session expiry is handled. Needs careful testing. Note that session.js still depends on jQuery.

Update a site to use this version of Zon core (e.g, use the Zon template against this commit).
Remove global.js and jQuery includes from the app carabiner file.
Set the session timeout in site/application/config/config.php to something short-lived.
Enable debugging mode in sitejs (E.g., Site.debugging = true)
Open multiple tabs
Add some event handlers for cross tab events in other tabs (E.g., el.addEventListener('something', function() { console.log('SOMETHING: ', this, arguments);});)
Make some Site.broadcast_event() calls to trigger your handlers.
Ensure the events are firing cross tab.
