NameSpace Issue in JointJS version 3

Question

I am trying to convert a legacy app from JointJS v2.2.1 to v3.0.2. I’m hitting an error others have found:

Uncaught Error: dia.ElementView: markup requir

Answer 1

I met a similar error saying 'markup required' just today when using jointjs with Vue. I followed the code and found that it is assuming 'joint' is present in global environment. So I add the following line in my code, and the error is gone:

import * as joint from 'jointjs'
window.joint = joint

Hopefully this helps.
