Question

If there a way to include the content of a javascript file into a Rails view?

I know about Ruby’s File.read, but I’m searching for some helper already done.

Answer 1

<%= javascript_tag do %>
  <%= render :file => '/path/to/rails/app/path/to/javascript.js' %>
<% end %>

So you can include any javascript code located on your machine. But to be honest there’s more appropriate way to do that kind of things.
