Resource Manager
A library that imports, loads and caches CSS, JavaScript, and HTML template files (and their contents) on-the-fly in a browser.
Useful for preloading files programmatically (in background), loading and unloading scripts inside
the <head> of an html page (avoiding duplicates), or cases when you may want to keep your css, js and templates
in separate files and only want to import them into an HTML page at different times.
Installation
npm i resource-manager-js --save-devYou can also use the dist files in the browser.
<script type="module" src="node_modules/resource-manager-js/dist/resource-manager.min.js"></script>Usage
Load CSS files
var cssPaths = ['path/to/css/file', 'path/to/another/css/file'];
ResourceManager.loadCss(cssPaths).then(function () {
// css files have been loaded!
});Load JavaScript files
You can load script files dynamically by calling the loadScript() method. When called, the supplied script
will be loaded into the <head> of the DOM and run immediately.
ResourceManager.loadScript('path/to/js').then(function () {
// script has been loaded!
});Request data endpoints
The fetchData() method makes XHR/ajax requests easy.
ResourceManager.fetchData('path/to/data', {cache: true}).then(function (response) {
// response has been retrieved!
// print out the response
console.log(response);
});Load template files
Load HTML file contents into an already-existing DOM element by using the loadTemplate() method.
ResourceManager.loadTemplate('path/to/html/file', document.body).then(function () {
// html contents have been loaded into the body element
});
