Yii render Javascript file on view

Question

I want to include JavaScript file in my view.

And I want to render it together and not as script file (registerScriptFile).

How can I do that?

just read the file using file_get_contents() and use its output in registerScript() — dInGd0nG

I'm wondering - why do you want to do this in the first place? I don't understand what's the reason of not willing to include JS file as it's done normally. Why do you need to include content of JS file like that? — Konrad Gadzina

Just renderFile() it would render any file, remember to wrap it with <script> tag.

So you should use renderFile, and add extension. Should work fine, ie: $this->renderFile('some/file.js'). I also edited my answer.

Thanks, This is the final results. public function actionRenderJS() { header("Content-type: text/javascript"); $js_file = 'scripts/widget.js'; $this->renderFile($js_file); Yii::app()->end(); }

Like this

$this->registerJs(
    $this->renderFile(
        '@app/views/path/js/jsfile.js',
    )
, $this::POS_END);
