How do I load a script dynamically via Backbone?

Question

Inside one of my views, I'd like to load this script:

<script type="text/javascript" src="https://domain.com" id="hello" name="abc"></script>

Is it possible to do that?

Answer 1

1. Manually appending it:

   $('head').append('<script type="text/javascript" src="https://domain.com" id="hello" name="abc"></script>')
   

2. Using $.getScript:

   $.getScript('https://domain.com').done(function () {
       // loaded!
   });
   

3. RequireJS:

   require.config({
       paths: {
           "myscript": "https://domain.com"
       }
   });
   
   require(['myscript'], function () {
       // loaded!
   });
