Phoenix routes helpers in javascript code

Installation

If available in Hex, the package can be installed by adding phoenix_routes_js to your list of dependencies in mix.exs:

def deps do
  [{:phoenix_routes_js, "~> 0.1.1"}]
end

Usage

Two steps configuration:

  1. Add possibility to use view helper by adding use PhoenixRoutesJs.View in template **_web/views/layout_view.ex file:
defmodule Project.LayoutView do
  ...
  import PhoenixRoutesJs.View
  ...
end

  1. Add helper render_routes_script to you layout in **_web/templates/layout/app.html.eex before main javascript file:
  ...
  <%= render_routes_script(@conn) %>
  <script src="<%= static_path(@conn, "/js/app.js") %>"></script>
  ...

Examples

  render_routes_script(@conn)
  render_routes_script(Project.Router)

Now you can use phoenix routes helpers in browser console and javascript code.
