Howto - upgrade addScript method

Post by rbuelund » Sun Dec 19, 2021 5:27 pm

How would I go about upgrading this piece of code (from my custom J3 component) to being ready for Joomla 4?

$document = Factory::getDocument();
$document->addScript(URI::root() . "administrator/components/com_mycomponent/views/datarow/submitbutton.js");

I believe the addScript method does not exist in the J!4 Factory class anymore?

Hi,

addscript is still working in J4.

However, you could use J4 Web assets : https://docs.joomla.org/J4.x:Web_Assets

use, for example :
/** @var Joomla\CMS\WebAsset\WebAssetManager $wa */
$wa = Factory::getApplication()->getDocument()->getWebAssetManager();
$wa->registerAndUseScript('mybutton','administrator/components/com_mycomponent/views/datarow/submitbutton.js');
