Uncaught ReferenceError: jsPDF is not defined

I’ve installed jsPDF (v0.91) and jspdf-autotable using NPM. This is my package.json:

 "dependencies": {
    "jspdf": "git://github.com/pavestru/jsPDF.git#v0.9.1",
    "jspdf-autotable": "^2.0.22",
  }

I’m using a specific old version of jsPDF since the latest versions don’t work with NPM (see here for details).

The output of npm install with that package.json gives:

├── jspdf@0.9.1 (git://github.com/pavestru/jsPDF.git#217c44d40cef6c5d567aa6db8e2f0d548e89c387)
└─┬ jspdf-autotable@2.0.22
  └── jspdf@1.2.61

It looks as if jspdf-autotable installed its own version of jspdf (v1.2.61). Is that correct? Anyhow, my code (livescript):

jsPDF = require 'jspdf'
pdf = new jsPDF()
pdf.autoTable(columns, rows)

But after bundling everything using webpack and running my application I get:

jspdf.plugin.autotable.js:10 Uncaught ReferenceError: jsPDF is not defined. @jspdf.plugin.autotable.js:10

What am I doing wrong or is there something wrong with jspdf-autotable?

Released a new version now 2.0.24 which I have tested works with webpack and version 0.9.1 and 0.9.2 of jspdf. I tested by running webpack app.js bundle.js with the following code:

// app.js
var jsPDF = require('jspdf');
require('jspdf-autotable');

var doc = new jsPDF('p', 'pt');

var columns = ["ID", "Name", "Age", "City"];
var data = [
    [1, "Jonatan", 25, "Gothenburg"],
    [2, "Simon", 23, "Gothenburg"],
    [3, "Hanna", 21, "Stockholm"]
];

doc.autoTable(columns, data);
doc.save("table.pdf");

I realize that this is not the webpack config you used, but at least there should be now issues with jspdf-autotable anymore. The way you are loading npm packages from package.json looks kind of like a hack to me? You might want to look into code splitting instead of manually splitting into vendor and app bundles?

I’m using jsPDF in Angular 8 with autotable, in this view requires custom the Table in DOM, and I tried all options possible…

Versions: “jspdf”: “^1.5.3”, “jspdf-autotable”: “^3.2.4”,

Any solution?
