Issue with example code for jsPsych in docs

Online experiments jsPsych
1

jsPsych version (e.g. 7.3.1): 7.3.4.

Currently, the jsPsych docs state that we should use the following code

var pavlovia_init = '{'
    type: "pavlovia",
    command: "init"
'}';

This didn’t work for me, because the pavlovia type was not found. I looked at the plugin source jspsych-7-pavlovia-2022.1.1.js and found that the plugin is called jsPsychPavlovia.

So, the following code works for me:

const pavlovia_init = {
            type: jsPsychPavlovia,
            command: "init"
        };
        timeline.push(pavlovia_init);

I also removed the quotation marks around the curly braces.

Thank you. I’ve updated the doc page accordingly.
