jQuery Autocompletion with Eclipse Juno Java EE

Asked 31/7, 2012 at 1:22 Answered 16/2, 2016 at 4:33

I've read several DATED information on how to enable jQuery (specially auto completion) support for Eclipse. Either using Aptana or other plugins.

I've tried Aptana 3 version plugin, but I get nothing but problems.

Can someone please explain on how to achieve this?

Maybe nowadays there are better options from Aptana.

Tried with Eclipse Indigo and Helios, and still Aptana Web tools pkg. does not work.

I got the jQuery code completion in Juno. Just follow the following steps:

1) Install the JSDT jQuery Integration plugin

enter image description here

2) Go to Project Explorer--> JavaScript Resources

enter image description here

3) Right click on it and go to properties.

4) Select "Add JavaScript library"

enter image description here

5) Select "jQuery Library"

enter image description here

6) You will get code completion as follows

Enjoy.

Has anyone had this problem: $(). brings up the autocomplete list but jQuery(). does not. It should work for both. I've even tried adding the library with the "no conflict" option checked and in this case, neither methods work. – Turtleneck 5/4, 2013 at 17:51

@Mandar Deshpande Thanks it worked bro. Can you tell if I want a code assist for backone.js, Is that there eclipse???? – Asher 26/8, 2013 at 12:21

@NikhilAgrawal: As the Backbone.js is released just 3 years ago and it is not that much popular, eclipse has not released the auto-complete feature for that till now. I will provide a update here as soon as i get to know about that feature. – Rainarainah 27/8, 2013 at 6:25

I have used https://marketplace.eclipse.org/content/angularjs-eclipse Once you install this you can right click on your project , Configure to Angularjs project ,

And that's it.

That is nothing about jQuery?? – Encarnacion 28/11, 2018 at 1:57

There is just something I have not seen anyone say.
If you already have a ready project, but when you created it did not using a javascript project, then you must convert your existing project.
Keep calm, because this conversion will not harm your existing project.

Right click on your project > Configure > Convert to javascript project

Ready! Now you can follow the step by step our friend up here did.
I believe this can really help beginners like me.
