How to call Haxe compiled JS from outer JavaScript?

Question

I have compiled my Haxe JS project, and it's working fine. What I have in Haxe is a Main class.

Now, I need to call a static function from a Haxe-compiled Main. I tried to call it like this:

Main.init();

But I get

Uncaught ReferenceError: Main is not defined

When I look in my compiled JavaScript script of Haxe I can see that Main is wrapped into something like that:

(function () { "use strict";

var Main = function() {

So, how to reach Main from external JavaScript code?

Answer 1

You can add @:expose metadata to make it accessible:

@:expose class Main
