How to load encore compiled js files in third party app

[maciejregula]

Hi,

I have application where some js files need to be loaded by third party app so there is no "encore_entry_script_tags" function to load js files. I have two entrypoints in my encore configuration:

    builds:
        admin: '%kernel.project_dir%/public/admin/build'
        front: '%kernel.project_dir%/public/front/build'

My admin app (REACT + SYMFONY) uses the admin build so I can load my js builds via "encore_entry_script_tags". However, the front build should be loaded by a third-party application and there is not possible to use "encore_entry_script_tags". Is it possible to keep encore build in one js file with specific given name so it can be easily loaded via regular <script type="text/javascript" src"" /> ?

It is possible:

• disable the splitting of entry points (i.e. don't use Encore.splitEntryChunks() in your config), so that each entrypoint stays as a single file
• disable versioning of assets so that the content hash does not get included in the file name
• figure out your own solution for caching (versioning of assets makes things compatible with long term caching of assets automatically, as the URL would change when the content change)

Alternatively, you could keep the versioning of assets for the build and build a controller in your Symfony application that would redirect from /front.js to the appropriate versioned asset (allowing to keep a long cache for the versioned asset and all dynamic chunks of the build)
