使用javascript_include_tag加载订单：全部

Question

So I've recently started to include quite a few .js files in to my web application and some of them depend on each other so load order is important.

However rails caching just seems to load a all.js file with no particular order to the files.

What's a good way to solve this issue?

Answer 1

You can do as follows

• First, load the default JavaScript files.

• Then load other scripts in the order that you want

  <%= javascript_include_tag :defaults %>
<%= javascript_include_tag "script_1", "script_2", "script_3" %>

Answer 2

The load order depends on your Javascript manifest file. In Rails 3.1 you can go to

app/assets/javascripts/application.js

At the bottom of the file you will see directives for rails how what / how to include files into the Rake pipeline. In the below example, I included a new directive that will include all the files in the directory called "Templates". I also made sure that the Handlebars.js templating file is called before all of the files in the "Templates" directory, otherwise the browser would throw an exception

//= require handlebars
//= require_tree ../templates
//= require_tree .

Hope it helps!

I've been experimenting with the YUILoader Module, it seems pretty nifty, though I am currently frussing about loading up custom modules. It's totally doable, I just couldn't figure it out in 5 mins.
