Including Formvalidation.io in meteor

Question

I am developing a meteor app.

1. I bought a copy of the formvalidation package and downloaded the zip file
2. Copied the folder under client directory
3. Created a file named startup.js in client directory root

4. Added the following code

   Meteor.startup(function(){
   $.when(
       $.getScript( "lib/formvalidation/dist/js/formValidation.min.js" ),
       $.getScript( "lib/formvalidation/dist/js/framework/bootstrap.min.js"),
       $.Deferred(function( deferred ){
           $( deferred.resolve );
       })
   ).done(function(){
       console.log( "Load was performed." );
   });
   

   });

When the application loads, I see the error message:

Uncaught ReferenceError: FormValidation is not defined

Any suggestions?

Try moving formValidation.min.js and bootstrap.min.js to the client/compatibility directory. You won't need startup.js at all, since files in the client/ directory are automatically loaded client-side.

client/compatibility is used for scripts that declare a global variable.
