Question

I’m attempting this in coffeescript:

$( element ).mousedown( aFunction ).mouseup( anotherFunction );

I’m trying to work out a way to make use of indents so that something like the following will return what’s about:

$ element
    .mousedown aFunction
    .mouseup anotherFunction

But to no avail, are there any recommendations for chaining in coffeescript?

Answer 1

I’m sure you don’t want to use parenthesis, but…

$("#element")
  .mousedown(aFunction)
  .mouseup(anotherFunction)

Compiles to

$("#element").mousedown(aFunction).mouseup(anotherFunction);
