[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/mkay581/resource-manager-js.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/mkay581/resource-manager-js) [![npm version](https://badge.fury.io/js/resource-manager-js.svg)](https://badge.fury.io/js/resource-manager-js) # Resource Manager A library that imports, loads and caches CSS, JavaScript, and HTML template files (and their contents) on-the-fly in a browser. Useful for preloading files programmatically (in background), loading and unloading scripts inside the `` of an html page (avoiding duplicates), or cases when you may want to keep your css, js and templates in separate files and only want to import them into an HTML page at different times. ## Installation ``` npm i resource-manager-js --save-dev ``` You can also use the dist files in the browser. ```html ``` ## Usage ### Load CSS files ```javascript var cssPaths = ['path/to/css/file', 'path/to/another/css/file']; ResourceManager.loadCss(cssPaths).then(function () { // css files have been loaded! }); ``` ### Load JavaScript files You can load script files dynamically by calling the `loadScript()` method. When called, the supplied script will be loaded into the `` of the DOM and run immediately. ```javascript ResourceManager.loadScript('path/to/js').then(function () { // script has been loaded! }); ``` ### Request data endpoints The `fetchData()` method makes XHR/ajax requests easy. ```javascript ResourceManager.fetchData('path/to/data', {cache: true}).then(function (response) { // response has been retrieved! // print out the response console.log(response); }); ``` ### Load template files Load HTML file contents into an already-existing DOM element by using the `loadTemplate()` method. ```javascript ResourceManager.loadTemplate('path/to/html/file', document.body).then(function () { // html contents have been loaded into the body element }); ```
