Question

I’m attempting to compile the very simple coffee script:

n = 4;

Using the code

require('coffee-script').compile(str);

I do this multiple times in my solution, without caching the results. The first time I do this, I get:

(function() {
    var n;
    n = 4;
}).call(this);

but if I then call it again, I get:

n = 4;

Why don’t I get the wrapper function the second time round, and how can I make it give the same results every time.

Answer 1

Can’t reproduce, I get the same (wrapped) code everytime.

Use coffee.compile(str, { bare: false }) to enforce the closure wrapper.
