I installed the "selectize-rails" gem into my rails app, and I'm trying to get it to work. I keep getting this error in my web console:
TypeError: $(...).selectize is not a function
and nothing happens in the browser. Here's the code I have so far, following the "Email Contacts" example from this page: http://brianreavis.github.io/selectize.js/
views/emails/new.html.erb
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
console.log( typeof $.fn.selectize === 'function'); // true
console.log( $('#select-to').length === 1 ); // true
var REGEX_EMAIL = '([a-z0-9!#$%&\'*+/=?^_`{|}~-]+(?:\.[a-z0-9!#$%&\'*+/=?^_`{|}~-]+)*@' + '(?:[a-z0-9](?:[a-z0-9-]*[a-z0-9])?\.)+[a-z0-9](?:[a-z0-9-]*[a-z0-9])?)';

(item.email ? '<span class="email">' + escape(item.email) + '</span>' : '') +
'</div>';
},
option: function(item, escape) {
var label = item.name || item.email;
var caption = item.name ? item.email : null;
return '<div>' +
'<span class="label">' + escape(label) + '</span>' +
(caption ? '<span class="caption">' + escape(caption) + '</span>' : '') +
'</div>';
}
},
createFilter: function(input) {
var match, regex;
// [email protected]
regex = new RegExp('^' + REGEX_EMAIL + '$', 'i');
match = input.match(regex);
if (match) return !this.options.hasOwnProperty(match[0]);
// name <[email protected]>
regex = new RegExp('^([^<]*)\<' + REGEX_EMAIL + '\>$', 'i');

Does anyone who has used Selectize know what I might be missing?
UPDATE:
It gets weirder: Error-prone code randomly started working, but then broke again upon refresh
I think you have a jQuery dependency issue caused by the jQuery-rails gem. Try this:
1) Comment out this line in your Gemfile
gem 'coffee-rails', '~> 4.0.1'
#gem 'jquery-rails', '~> 2.3.0'
gem 'turbolinks', '~> 1.1.1'
2) Run bundle install
3) Download this version of jQuery and put in in your vendor/assets/javascript
folder.
EDIT
To migrate to the non-gem version place these files in the following paths:
I had resolved same issue by removing jQuery include, that was included twice. There's note about that in the comments, but it's collapsed and I figured that out myself. Posting this as answer for people to notice it.
For me, the issue was that my application code was being included before selectize.js
. Adding //= require selectize
to app/assets/javascripts/application.js
before //= require_tree .
fixed it.
//= require jquery
//= require jquery_ujs
//= require turbolinks
//= require selectize
//= require_tree .
