Unable to load canjs in node.js environment

[Luanre]

CanJS 2.2.6

I tried to load canjs using the code:

var can = require('can/dist/cjs/can');

But I've met the exception:

./node_modules/can/dist/cjs/compute/get_value_and_bind.js:23
can.__isRecordingObserves = function () {
  ^
ReferenceError: can is not defined

I've found that get_value_and_bind.js requires '../util/util.js' but doesn't save result to var can.

Thanks. This will be fixed in the next release.

Btw, are you using browserify? Which version? With latest, you should only have to write:

require('can')

[Luanre]

No, I'm setting up unit-test environment to test my components' scope methods.

I used browserify before and yes, canjs could be included using:

var can = require('can');

But for plugins you still need to write:

require('can/dist/cjs/object/object');

Do you think you could supplement this with an example on how to load CanJS within NodeJS?

This isn't working for me, nor does loading it with StealJS. This issue doesn't appear resolved at the moment
