Call js with an element after render (external library)

[olegantonyan]

Hi! If after_render is bad, how can I use libraries such as datetime pickers (http://bevacqua.github.io/rome/, https://tarruda.github.io/bootstrap-datetimepicker)? It requires you to call function with an element. This crap works:

def after_render
  `elements = document.getElementsByClassName("timepicker"); for(var i = 0; i < elements.length; i++) { rome(elements[i], { date: false, timeInterval: 600 }); }`
end

But it's ugly. What is the best practice to deal with external libraries like these?

Just like in react. You can write you own timepicker component, or use crap like this.
