I know the logic for Startup and Shutdown sequence in Unix, but I didn’t understood what did you meant with it. Now I got it. So your proposal is to have order by name of the script. I don’t think it will be hard task and I will definitely implement it. I don’t know how useful it will be, but at least it will help with the case of scriptaculous.

Edit: Juan, I’ve updated the helper, so now it support vendors as well as order too. Thanks for the suggestions

In linux, you can create scripts to execute in shutdown. If you have 10 scripts to be implemented, but one should be executed before the other, you put in front of the filename the term S (shutdown) followed by 2 numbers indicating the order. If it is not formatted in this way, will run at the end. For example, if you have the scripts S02jquery.plug jquery.subplug and S01jquery, the order will be: S01jquery, S02jquery.plug and finally jquery.subplug. Got it?

Juan, thanks for clarification. I would definitely try this for vendors. I fact I didn’t know that this working this way, because I never used JS in vendors.

I didn’t get your idea about the ordering. What do you mean?

The vendors libs are public too via Cake. For exemple, if your vendors is in /root (with priv of apache) and enter in site/js/lala.js, if no exists apache-www/…/js/lala.js, Cake will try search in vendors path, in this case, /root/vendors/js/lala.js. Understanding?
It’s works for both vendors paths (app vendor and “all” vendors).

Other suggestion is use linux style for order, for exemple, in scripts to shutdown, S01 is executed first, S02, … if no SXX in name, it go rand in last.

Well, it’s true vendor directory is used for this purpose /I never used it for js libs/, but in the optimal case the only visible part of the project should be /app/webroot/, so vendors should be not possible to be accessed. I would suggest to create a link from vendors to js/ and I will modify the helper to walk through it first.

What do you think?

It’s nice! But as suggestion, you can search js/css files in vendors path too. For exemple, for me, jQuery and plugins are 3th and I put this files in vendors files. In webroot/[js/css] have only my scripts.
