EmbeddedJs

EmbeddedJs is a gem to support including JavaScript packages in your Rails Engines.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'embedded_js'

And then execute:

$ bundle install

Finally, run the generator:

$ rails generate embedded_js:install

It works by hooking into the JavaScript package managers preinstall hook via a Rake task. The Rake task copies the files specified in the package.json to a temporary directory and then install that directory as a local package.

require 'embedded_js'

EmbeddedJs.configure do |config|
  config.package_manager = :npm
  config.engines = %w[
      engine1
      engine2
  ]
end

You'll need to add the preinstall script to your applications package.json in the scripts property.

{
  "scripts": {
    "preinstall": "bundle exec rails embedded_js:preinstall"
  }
}

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
