I'm loading datatables via importmap, but am getting an error:
TypeError: t is not a function
at datatables.net.index-3b6320b7aff88c57cea7a1a00496cbd3.js:7:29968
at new e.exports (datatables.net.index-3b6320b7aff88c57cea7a1a00496cbd3.js:7:83480)
Those lines come from
import t from "jquery";
var xt = l.util.escapeRegex
, It = t("<div>")[0]
, At = It.textContent !== a;
Because I'm using esm / importmap, I'm guessing that it's related to jquery, but I have no idea.
<script type="importmap">

While I can't link to a test case, PHP programmers with the Symfony CLI installed can re-create this as follows:
symfony new datatables-demo --webapp --version=next && cd datatables-demo
# composer config minimum-stability dev
# composer config prefer-stable true
composer req symfony/asset-mapper
composer req symfony/stimulus-bundle:2.x-dev
composer req survos/datatables-bundle
bin/console importmap:require bootstrap
bin/console make:controller AppController
sed -i "s|Route('/app'|Route('/'|" src/Controller/AppController.php
cat > templates/app/index.html.twig <<END
{% extends 'base.html.twig' %}
{% block body %}
<table class="table" {{ stimulus_controller('@survos/datatables-bundle/table', {perPage: 5, sortable: true}) }}>
<thead>

<th>abbr</th>
<th>name</th>
<th>number</th>

<tbody>
{% for j in 1..12 %}
<tr>
<td>{{ j |date('2023-' ~ j ~ '-01') |date('M') }}</td>
<td>{{ j |date('2023-' ~ j ~ '-01') |date('F') }}</td>
<td>{{ j }}</td>
</tr>
{% endfor %}
</tbody>
</table>
{% endblock %}
END
symfony server:start -d
symfony open:local
Any ideas on what might cause that type error?

When I used webpack to install the bundle, the script works as expected. So it likely has something to do with importmap and jquery.
Try using:
for your jQuery import. jQuery 3.x and earlier does not support ESM importing. It needs to be shimmed.
Allan
The jquery and the rest of the datatables dependencies are installed locally from jsdelivr when datatables is installed.
I'm not sure then I'm afraid. If there is a minimal way to reproduce the error, I can look into it more.
Allan
OK, I'll try to do that. We discussed the jdelivr vs your own CDN, are they the same esm modules? I know your example script uses cdn.datatables, but I have to use jsdelivr.
Here's a JS fiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/tacman1123/qnh16kog/2/
I don't understand how jQuery is loaded in a way that datatables recognizes it. Indeed, using the datatables bookmarklet it says that jQuery isn't loaded.
Here's the relevant javascript:
I've been hacking with code like this before the DataTable() call, but it's not working.
Is there a way to initialize DataTable and pass it your own jQuery object?
DataTables does its own
import jQuery from 'jquery';. You can see that in the first line of code in the JS file you are importing (-ish - it looks like jsdelivr is doing some rewriting). It looks like the issue you are having there is that:can't be resolved.
That's just because jQuery isn't in the global scope.
No - but if you have a global jQuery, then you can just load the DataTables UMD, rather than the ESM version.
If you are loading module files directly in the browser, you need to tell the browser how to resolve the packages with your importmap. Since the packages themselves do named imports, you need to be able to resolve them. So in this case:
You can probably use
jsdelivrif you prefer, I haven't experimented with that.Updated example: https://jsfiddle.net/xkgo17ut/ .
Import maps have a lot of constraints, as I wrote about in the blog post on this topic. Personally I don't feel it is ready for production use yet.

Ryan discovered this issue:
import e from"/npm/datatables.net@2.1.1/+esm";
and reported it https://github.com/DataTables/DataTablesSrc/issues/246
He also provided this commentary:
So, it's a "bug" on their side. Really, an accident - but it's something that should be fixed on their end. The workaround, in AssetMapper, is, after running importmap:require datatables.net-bs5, manually go into importmap.php, adjust the datatables.net version to 1.13.6 (to match datatables.net-bs5), then run importmap:install.
Thanks for the fiddle! Great to see it working inside a module.
I really hope we can get it working on jsdelivr, though.
