how to reference jquery mobile from an adapt plugin. This assumes that you have jquery.mobile-1.4.2min.js in the same directory. This can be used to detect orientation change events.

bower.json

{
    "name":"adapt-orientation-change",
    "main":"main.js"
}

jquery.mobile-1.4.2.min.js

//download from http://jquerymobile.com/

main.js

define(['coreJS/adapt', './jquery.mobile-1.4.2.min', 'jquery'], function (Adapt, jqueryMobile, $) {
    
    //subscribe jquery event
    $( window ).on( "orientationchange", function( event ) {
        //publish adapt event
        Adapt.trigger('orientation:change', event.orientation);
    });
    
    Adapt.on('orientation:change', function (orientation) {
        console.log("This device is in " + orientation + " mode!" );
    });
    
});
