<script src = "https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.2.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
$.fn.person = function(prop) {
var defaults = $.extend({
name: 'Amit'
}, prop);
// methods to be used outside of the plugin
var person = {
changeName: function(name) {
defaults.name = name;
},
getName: function() {
return defaults.name;
}
};
return person;
};
// set initial properties
var person = $('#person').person({
name: 'Sachin'
});
document.write('Initial name of person: ', person.getName());
person.changeName('Amit');
// printing new name
document.write('<br>Changed name of person: ', person.getName());
</script>
</head>
