I'm trying to write some CoffeScript function which checks all checkboxes in a table upon checking the checkbox in the th.
My function in CoffeeScript looks like this:
$("table.tableview th input:checkbox").live 'click', ->
checkedStatus = this.checked
$("table.tableview tbody tr td:first-child input:checkbox").each ->
this.checked = checkedStatus
It works great for checking all the boxes. However when unchecking it doesn't work. The compiled JS looks like this:
$("table.tableview th input:checkbox").live('click', function() {
var checkedStatus;
checkedStatus = this.checked;
return $("table.tableview tbody tr td:first-child input:checkbox").each(function() {
return this.checked = checkedStatus;
});
});
It doesn't work because after the first one is set to false the return of the function will be false. I however have no clue how to suppress this default return behavior of coffee script. Please help.
When I add a "true" as per Flambino's suggestion I get the following JS
$("table.tableview th input:checkbox").live('click', function() {
var checkedStatus;
checkedStatus = this.checked;
$("table.tableview tbody tr td:first-child input:checkbox").each(function() {
return this.checked = checkedStatus;
});
return true;
});
The only way I can get the return statement inside the function is by putting it all the way like this:
$("table.tableview tbody tr td:first-child input:checkbox").each ->
this.checked = checkedStatus
true
What am I doing wrong ? Thx for the help so far
Just add a true
as the last line of your function, and coffeescript will compile the JS to return that instead:
$("table.tableview th input:checkbox").live 'click', ->
checkedStatus = this.checked
$("table.tableview tbody tr td:first-child input:checkbox").each ->
this.checked = checkedStatus
true
In other words, CoffeeScript always returns the result of the last line (like Ruby does)
Edit (after the question was updated):
Again, you can't keep CoffeeScript from returning the value of the last line in a function - part of the point of CoffeeScript is that it does exactly that.
CoffeeScript has significant whitespace, so indentation is what says what belongs together - your example is is actually correct:
$("table.tableview th input:checkbox").live 'click', ->
checkedStatus = this.checked
$("table.tableview tbody tr td:first-child input:checkbox").each ->
this.checked = checkedStatus
true // cause this function (the each-iterator) to return true
true // causes the click handler function to return true
There's no difference between this and just writing return true
in a function like you would in javascript. You just use whitespace instead of {}
to make code blocks.
