Why is JavaScript not loading after renaming?

[rendie]

Hello,
I want to write a custom panel and use for it js library vis.js,
but when I name this library and my js with script="vis.js, my.js", then js does not load.

In my js I use this example:

require([
"splunkjs/mvc",
"jquery",
'splunk.util',
'splunkjs/mvc/tableview',
'splunkjs/mvc/simplexml/ready!'
], function(
mvc,
$,
splunkUtil,
TableView
) {
console.log("Start");
});

Hi,

I have tested your script and its working fine on my system.
Just to confirm and correct the script location - $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/<app_name>/appserver/static

If still its not working, check your chrome console and share the error logs if there.

Another check,
Most of the times, js are not cleared from browser cache and even after updating the js in backend, browser still loads the old js.
In Splunk goto - https://your_splunk_server:8000/_bump and click the Bump Version and refresh your dashboard.

Hi rendie,
wher did you locate your js?
is must be in $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/appserver/static

Ciao.
