Link and execute external JavaScript file hosted on GitHub

Question

When I try to change the linked reference of a local JavaScript file to a GitHub raw version my test file stops working. The error is:

Refused to exe

Answer 1

When a file is uploaded to github you can use it as external source or free hosting. Troy Alford has explained it well above. But to make it easier let me tell you some easy steps then you can use a github raw file in your site:

Here is your file's link:

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mindmup/bootstrap-wysiwyg/master/bootstrap-wysiwyg.js

Now to execute it you have to remove https:// and the dot( . ) between raw and githubusercontent

Like this:

rawgithubusercontent.com/mindmup/bootstrap-wysiwyg/master/bootstrap-wysiwyg.js

Now when you will visit this link you will get a link that can be used to call your javascript:

Here is the final link:

https://rawgit.com/mindmup/bootstrap-wysiwyg/master/bootstrap-wysiwyg.js

Similarly if you host a css file you have to do it as mentioned above. It is the easiest way to get simple link to call your external css or javascript file hosted on github.

I hope this is helpful.
