$repeater is your element.
For the title, I guess you have miss spelling with the extension name.

I just wrote it well but I do not know how to use that command, as I captured the variables of each repeated input El sáb., 4 de febrero de 2017 10:39 a. m., Eden Wang < [email protected]> escribió:

There is an example in the README.md, you can try it.
It will return an object for form

[jorarmarfin]

In the README.md file only mentions
// setup the repeater
$ ('. Repeater').
// get the values of the inputs as a formatted object
$ ('. Repeater').
But I still do not know how to use repeaterVal ()
An example please

the repeaterVal method is sort of convenience method to get the values of inputs within the repeater.

The original design of jquery.repeater was to be used in a "web 1.0" style, where the form triggers a full page refresh (as opposed to an ajax call). jquery.repeater sets the name parameter in a way that it generates a nicely structured data when parsed on the server (at least in php). For example an input in jquery.repeater with the name "foo" would be rewritten to something like "repeater-name[0][foo]" so that it is parsed on the server as an element in an array with the field name "foo". In this case you probably wouldn't need to use repeaterVal.

However if you need to access the values of repeater inputs using client side javascript, this naming convention could be annoying. So .repeaterVal returns the data in a structured way that would mirror the way your server-side parsing might structure it.

Your best bet might be to simply try calling repeaterVal on a repeater and see what data it returns. This would probably be more instructive than my poor explanation 😄
