rails 4 with turbolinks and window load

Question

I\'m using Rails 4.

I\'m trying to use this script to show google maps. I got a page with different places and each place got an address. It shows in google maps.

Answer 1

You need to initialize scripts via turbolinks. Check this ASCIIcast about turbolinks.

In general, you need to change...

jQuery(function() {
  # your script
});

...to...

var ready;
ready = function() {
  # your script
};

$(document).ready(ready);
$(document).on('page:load', ready);

All turbo links events you can find here.

Update for Turbolinks 5

page:load has changed to turbolinks:load, so instead you want to write:

var ready;
ready = function() {
  # your script
};

$(document).on('turbolinks:load', ready);

You no longer need to specify $(document).ready(); as turbolinks:load does that. For more info, check out the README.
