js.fanstatictools 0.1

Introduction

This library provides some javascript helpers for use with fanstatic.

Get URLs of resources from within Javascript

When you need to load other (fanstatic) resources inside your javascript, you may want to calculate the URL to the fanstatic library the resource is defined in. Using relative URLs does not work, because they are calculated relative to the windows URL, not to the URL of the current script, which can be different.

After including the js.fanstatictools.lib_url fanstatic resource, you are able to call fanstatictools.get_library_url(‘name_of_your_library’), which returns the url. Add the filename of the resource to the end and you are done.

How to use?

You can import url from js.fanstatictools and need it where you want these resources to be included on a page:

>>> from js.fanstatictools import lib_url
>>> lib_url.need()
