Webstorm 10.0.3 + "ReferenceError: $ is not defined"

Question

I wanted to use JQuery within Webstorm, but as soon as I use something like $("*") I get an error(when working in a JS-file):

console.log($("*"));

ReferenceError: $ is not defined
at ...\app.js:41:21
at FSReqWrap.oncomplete (fs.js:95:15)
Process finished with exit code 1

What I did so far is I included the jquery file in my layout-page(master page) in the head section and it works.

Under Settings and Libraries I checked JQuery.

But I still got that error, I think I have to change some settings in Webstorm...?!

As I see - you run your script and got an error. That is mean that $ is undefined at your script. Did you include jquery file like "var $ = require('jquery')" or something else? — Vasiliy vvscode Vanchuk, May 26 '15 at 06:27

If you takl about checking at WebStrom - add at the begining of file

/* global $ */

And if you talk about running program - you should include file where $ defined

now I get this: "module.js:338 throw err; ^ Error: Cannot find module 'jquery' at Function.Module._resolveFilename (module.js:336:15) at Function.Module._load (module.js:278:25) at Module.require (module.js:365:17) at require (module.js:384:17) at Object.

Of course. It was just example. What do you what to do with jquery at server side? – Vasiliy vvscode Vanchuk May 26 '15 at 08:58

I want to list all files in a folder and then use the result in a template(handlebars) https://sankartypo3.wordpress.com/2013/02/12/how-to-list-files-and-folders-using-nodejs/ – user254197 May 26 '15 at 10:41
I'm not sure than $ is jQuery in that case – Vasiliy vvscode Vanchuk May 26 '15 at 12:42

I'd suggest looking at jsdom module if you like to do smth like this using Node.js. See usage examples in readme
