Rails 3.1 asset pipeline and manually ordered Javascript requires

by

You have two possible structure : the first one and the second one.
With both following examples, you expose a package at /assets/externals.js.
You can javascript_include_tag this package, but you can also require it in your application.js file.

The first one

vendor/
├── assets
│   ├── javascripts
│   │   ├── externals.js
│   │   ├── modernizr-1.7.js
│   │   └── underscore-1.1.6.js
│   └── stylesheets
└── plugins

The file externals.js contains :

//= require ./underscore-1.1.6.js
//= require ./modernizr-1.7.js

The second one

vendor/
├── assets
│   ├── javascripts
│   │   └── externals
│   │       ├── index.js
│   │       ├── modernizr-1.7.js
│   │       └── underscore-1.1.6.js
│   └── stylesheets
└── plugins

The file index.js contains :

//= require ./underscore-1.1.6.js
//= require ./modernizr-1.7.js
