JavascriptAutoInclude
=====================

== Resources

Install
 * Run the following command:
 script/plugin install http://kernowsoul.com/svn/plugins/javascript_auto_include

 * On rails 2.1 and above you can run
 script/plugin install git://github.com/kernow/javascript_auto_include.git
 
== Usage

 Add the following to the head of your template file

 <%= javascript_auto_include_tags %>
 
 Now each time the template is loaded javascript files in the public/javascripts/views
 folder that correspond to the name of the current controller or view will be auto
 loaded. It's also possible for the same javascript file to be loaded by multiple views
 by adding the name of each view to the filename separated by the "-" character, e.g. to load
 a javascript file in the new and edit views create a file named new-edit.js. Any number
 of views can be strung together using this naming convention. For example:

 /public
   /javascripts
     /views
       users.js
       /users
         edit.js
       roles.js
       /accounts
         show-new-edit-create.js
		 show.js

 Assuming the above file structure loading each of the following urls would include:
 
 mydomain.com/users             # includes users.js
 mydomain.com/users/edit/1      # includes users.js and edit.js
 mydomain.com/users/show/1      # includes users.js
 mydomain.com/roles             # includes roles.js
 mydomain.com/accounts          # no files included
 mydomain.com/accounts/show/1   # includes show.js and show-new-edit-create.js
 mydomain.com/accounts/new      # includes show-new-edit-create.js
 mydomain.com/accounts/edit/1   # includes show-new-edit-create.js
 mydomain.com/accounts/create   # includes show-new-edit-create.js

 Thanks to geoffgarside http://github.com/geoffgarside for also creating a version that can
 include the same file in multiple views. Some of the code comments are from his version as
 they are more concise than mine.
