I have many models. Now I like to show the JavaScript to only the particular controller and method.

For example, if I had code like this and want to show it only in communities/show
Should I paste this in the head of view/communities/show.html.erb?
or is there smarter way to manage this kind of things?
Obviously it looks ugly if I put it in the head of show file because JavaScript always should be placed within < head> tag.

<%= javascript_tag do %>
    jQuery(document).ready(function () {
        refreshPartial();
        setInterval(refreshPartial, 5000)
    });


    function refreshPartial() {
      $.ajax({
        url: "<%= community_path %>/refresh_part",
        type: "GET",
        dataType: "script",
      });
    }
<% end %>
