Yii2 - Include JS Script Only For Specific View

Question

I want to include my js script specific.js for a specific view having action id specific-action-id. I don\'t want the specific.js to be in

Answer 1

It is highly recommended to use asset bundles to register external JS files rather than registerJsFile() because these allow better flexibility and more granular dependency configuration. Also using asset bundles allows you to combine and compress multiple JS files, which is desirable for high traffic websites.

So you can create a new AppAsset file and put your css and javascript files in it.

Create the Asset Bundle

In the \assets directory, we create StatusAsset.php:

 * @since 2.0
 */
class StatusAsset extends AssetBundle
{
    public $basePath = '@webroot';
    public $baseUrl = '@web';
    public $css = [];
    public $js = [
      '/js/jquery.simplyCountable.js',
      '/js/twitter-text.js',
      '/js/twitter_count.js',  
      '/js/status-counter.js',
    ];
    public $depends = [
            'yii\web\YiiAsset',
            'yii\bootstrap\BootstrapAsset',
        ];
}

In your view file

use app\assets\StatusAsset;
StatusAsset::register($this);
