Script

Loads a local JavaScript file to your app to make its functionality available in your app.

app.Script( file, noDefer=false )

By default it is loaded just before OnStart is being called unless you set “NoDefer” to true which forces inline loading.
This is to ensure errors are highlighted correctly in external source files.

Example - Deferred Loading (recommended) click to expand contents

app.WriteFile( "script.js", "var num = 7;\nfunction computeNum() { return 6 * num; }" );
app.Script( "script.js" );

function OnStart() {
app.ShowPopup( "script.js loaded." );
app.Alert( computeNum(), "computed number: " );
}

app.WriteFile( "script.js", "var num = 7;\nfunction computeNum() { return 6 * num; }" );

function OnStart() {
    app.Script( "script.js", true );

    // without noDefer true computeNum won't be defined
    app.ShowPopup( "script.js loaded." );
    app.Alert( computeNum(), "computed number: " );
