I must apologize. I released v. 2.1 without much testing as I was using ColdBox 3. Thanks for posting the bugs and their resolution.

I’ve been trying to integrate scriptinclude into my ColdBox (2.6.4) app and I have been having problems.

I was first using version 1.0 and whenever I tried to output the resources/scripts, it just produced an empty string.

It was adding the item to the variables.instance.Javascript variable, and I could see that by using a cfdump straight after it had been added, but then when getting the items, the variable was empty.

I then found version 2.1 and tried using that, but it kept error-ing, saying “The variable: resourceQueue is undefined in the request collection” when trying to add a script block.

I then picked around in the plugin and noticed that when adding a rescource, the queue is declared with:

var queue = getResourceQueue();

but when adding a script, the queue is expected to have already been declared:

var queue = event.getValue(‘resourceQueue’);

So I changed it so that it was declared in the same way as when adding a resource and it all started to work.
It works because the getResourceQueue() method checks for the existence of resourceQueue and if it doesn’t exist, it creates it.

Just thought I’d let you know about this and if this is due to me using the plugin incorrectly, please let me know.

For anyone who is looking for scriptinclude v2.1, you can find it at:
http://www.assembla.com/code/coldbox-community/subversion/nodes/plugins/scriptInclude?rev=12

If you are looking for version 1.0, you can find it in the ValidateThis package in the Trasnfer sample directory, at:
http://validatethis.riaforge.org/

I have the code in Production now and can send you a copy if you wish.

Thanks.

Cheers,
Andy

Are the script include files gone forever? It’s exactly what I am looking for for my ColdBox development and was gutted to see they had gone. If you still have the code, could you re-post?

Hey Aaron,

I was just wondering if the server stuff had to do with why the scriptInclude.cfc posts were missing? Are you going to put those back up?

I actually think it’s a great solution to adding scripts and styles. I have an extra method if you are interested. Simple, but it’s useful for getting stuff like the Google maps api, etc…

I use it like this:
rc.scriptInclude.addExternalResource(file=’http://www.google.com/jsapi?key=#getSetting(“GoogleAPIKey”)#’,type=’JS’);

var write = arrayNew(1);
switch (arguments.type) {
case ‘JS’:
arrayAppend(write, “”);
break;
case ‘CSS’:
arrayAppend(write, “”);
break;
}
arrayAppend(variables.instance.queue[arguments.type], arrayToList(write,”") );
