Gon无法使用Sinatra中的.js文件

Question

In my head within layout.erb I included <%= include_gon %>

In main.rb I have written

require 'gon-sinatra'
Sinatra::register Gon::Sinatra

gon.test = "Test"
puts gon.test

The console outputs Test as expected.

However when I create a .js file and write something like console.log(gon.test) and I look in Firebug or Chrome Console, it says Reference Error: gon is not defined . Why is this happening? What should I do to fix this?

Answer 1

It turns out I have written <script><%= include_gon %></script> which makes it fail. <%= include_gon %> shouldn't be written inside <script> tags.
