npm install dynloadBasic script loader.
The simplest and fastest way of loading scripts in modern browser is simply [listing them at the
end of the body element][1].
Use load only if for some reason you need to load your scripts dynamically - useful when
integrating various 3rd party widgets and snippets (google analytics, disqus, twitter API etc.) on
your page.
Install with [npm]:
$ npm install dynload
``javascript`
var load = require('dynload');
load('//topic.disqus.com/count.js');
Please note that scripts added to the DOM are async by default (see this [article][1] on script
loading) which means that they will start executing as soon as they load in pretty much random
order.
You can force async to false but some browsers will ignore it.
`javascript`
load('//topic.disqus.com/count.js', false);
load returns script element - you can register onerror and onload callbacks
`javascript`
load('//cdn/script.js').onload = function () {
console.log('my script loaded');
});
and:
`javascript`
load('//cdn/script.js').onerror = function (err) {
console.log('cannot load script', err);
});
If you your callback work with IE use segmentio/script-onload
`javascript
var load = require('dynload');
var onload = require('script-onload');
onload(load('//cdn/script.js'), function(err) {
if (err) {
console.log('Cannot load script', err);
} else {
console.log('Script loaded');
}
});
