JavaScript How to make a global object

How do I make a global object in JavaScript? This is some example code

    function main() {
        window.example {
            sky:"clear",
            money:"green",
            dollars:3000
        }
    }

So why can I not access the object outside the function?

javascript
node.js
object
global

Answer 1

You missed the =

window.example =  {
   sky:"clear",
   money:"green",
   dollars:3000
}

In node window is undefined, if you really want to use window as a global variable make sure to declare it as

var window = {}

Not sure why you would do that

Answer 2

Because you're not setting anything.

function main() {
    window.example = {
        sky:"clear",
        money:"green",
        dollars:3000
    }
}

Answer 3

Not a property of window and Global:

var globalExample = {
  sky: 'clear',
  money: 'green',
  dollars: 3000
}
// don't have to even use `var` with top level variables - It's a good practice anyways though
function main() {
  this.example = globalExample;
}
var nm = new main;
nm.example.sky = 'grey';
console.log(globalExample.sky);

Constructor style.
