How to call a jQuery plugin function outside the plugin?

jQuery is a JavaScript library introduced to make development with JavaScript easier. It reduces the development time. Let us see how to call a jQuery plugin function outside the plugin.

For calling, wrap the jQuery method for returning the instance of the constructor. Call prototype methods on it.

example

$.fn.myFunction = function(config){
    return new myFunction (config);
};

Instance the plugin and call the method −

var plugin = $('#someSelector').myFunction();
plugin.setToken(column);
