14.7 ADD_LIBRARY Procedure

This procedure adds the script tag to load a JavaScript library. If a library has been added, it is not added a second time.

Syntax

APEX_JAVASCRIPT.ADD_LIBRARY (
    p_name                    IN VARCHAR2,
    p_directory               IN VARCHAR2,
    p_version                 IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL,
    p_check_to_add_minified   IN BOOLEAN DEFAULT FALSE,
    p_skip_extension          IN BOOLEAN  DEFAULT FALSE,
    p_ie_condition            IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL,
    p_requirejs_module        IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL,
    p_requirejs_js_expression IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL,
    p_requirejs_required      IN BOOLEAN DEFAULT FALSE,
    p_key                     IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL);

Parameters

Table 14-7 ADD_LIBRARY Parameters

Parameter	Description
`p_name`	Name of the JavaScript file. Must not use `.js` when specifying.
`p_directory`	Directory where JavaScript library is loaded. Must have a trailing slash.
`p_version`	Version identifier.
`p_check_to_add_minified`	If TRUE, the procedure tests if it is appropriate to add `.min` extension and add it if appropriate. This is added if an application is not running in DEBUG mode, and omitted when in DEBUG mode.
`p_skip_extension`	If TRUE the extension `.js` is NOT added.
`p_ie_condition`	Condition which is used as Internet Explorer condition.
`p_requirejs_module`	Module name which is used to expose the library to RequireJS.
`p_requirejs_js_expression`	JavaScript expression which is used to expose the library to the RequireJS module.
`p_requirejs_required`	This has to be true if the library uses RequireJS in its code to loading other JavaScript files.
`p_key`	Name used to indicate if the library has already been loaded. If not specified, defaults to `p_directory\|\|p_name\|\|p_version`.

Example

The following example includes the JavaScript library file named hammer-2.0.4.min.js (if the application has not been started from the Builder), or hammer-2.0.4.js (if the application has been started from the Builder or is running in DEBUG mode), from the directory specified by p_plugin.file_prefix. Since p_skip_extension is not specified, this defaults to .js. Also, since p_key is not specified, the key defaults to p_plugin.file_prefix||hammer-2.0.4. Hammer is a JavaScript library which exposes itself to RequireJS using hammerjs as module name.

apex_javascript.add_library (
    p_name                    => 'hammer-2.0.4#MIN#',
    p_directory               => p_plugin.file_prefix,
    p_requirejs_module        => 'hammerjs',
    p_requirejs_js_expression => 'Hammer' );
