Ruby on Rails Friday, August 1, 2014

Hi all,

Sorry if this has already been discussed, but I haven't found any post matching what I'm looking for.  (If there is, please point me to it!)

I'd like to include a javascript in the header section, but just for one view.  I went through the guides and I understand you can do something like this inside a particular view:

<% content_for :head do %>
  <script src="(path_to_)myJavascript.js"></script>
<% end %>

However, if I add myJavascript.js in app/assets/javascripts, it gets loaded for every single page.  Years ago, when I did RoR development (before assets), I used to put javascripts in the public/javascripts.  Is that still where I should put theses one-off javascript files?  What is the best practice now?

Thanks for any pointers!
Kumi
