如何使用Meteor.js浏览器Javascript控制台？

Question

Launching new Meteor.js project. In client.js I put

var hi = "widget";

    if (Meteor.isClient()){
    ...
    }

In my Browser's Console, and I type:

>> hi
ReferenceError: hi is not defined
>> this.hi
undefined

Answer 1

It is probably locally scoped.

Try:

var global = Function("return this")();
global.hi = "widget";

Answer 2

Okay, this has changed just recently in version 0.6 and seems to be just a bug. If you remove var at the declaration of hi, the scope of the variable will change and it will become accessible via JS console. Still, it's a temporary situation, which will be likely be fixed in the future releases.
