jquery.js and jquery.keyframes.js are not found when using NPM - javascript

I'm having trouble using jquery and jquery.keyframes. I use NPM and the js files are stored in the node_modules folder while the html files are stored in the public folder. For some reason the html file cannot find the js files when I use this code:
<script src="../node_modules/jquerykeyframes/dist/jquery.keyframes.js"></script>
<script src="../node_modules/jquery/dist/jquery.js"></script>
I've tried a few alternatives but nothing has worked. What am I doing wrong?

You shouldn't be importing your node_modules this way. You can either set a script up with node import/export (or require) or just use the jquery cdn like so (https://code.jquery.com/):
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.6.0.min.js" integrity="sha256-/xUj+3OJU5yExlq6GSYGSHk7tPXikynS7ogEvDej/m4=" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
And here is the link for jquery keyframes cdn: https://cdnjs.com/libraries/jquerykeyframes

Aurelia Build Bundle Locations in HTML File

I'm using Aurelia CLI (v1.2.0) with webpack (v4.41.0). Running the command au build --env prod works well and all necessary files are placed in a dist folder relative to the project's root as expected. However, a problem I'm seeing is the following in the generated .html file:
...
<body aurelia-app="main">
<script type="text/javascript" src="/runtime~app.66066bc9a3f8c86e3d5a.bundle.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/vendor.bluebird~01be3b92.3dbcbc269195ad05c865.chunk.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/vendor.setimmediate~a1c951f6.42ef81a6d814b4bc894f.chunk.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/vendor.process~16c59945.ef28f3259f949d41518b.chunk.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/vendor.moment~399b027d.9b9b0283b72b7237fb27.chunk.js"></script>
...
You see the src="/file_name_here" part in these script tags is not going to work as it's looking for files at the root of the main hard disk, not relative to the HTML file. If I add src="../file_name_here" then all works fine. Am I missing a webpack configuration somewhere?
Thanks for the assistance.
in your project, you have a webpack.config.js file.
there you should find the baseUrl property. change it to whatever suits you best.
for example: I want the bundle files to be in the same directory of the index.html file, regardless of their respective path on the server. (they will not always be in the root of my server).
so I just change the default '/' to '' (empty string.)

Adding script in Laravel

I am fairly new to Laravel but I'm getting to grips with it.
At the moment there a partial blade that just includes scripts from the public assets folder, like below.
<script src="{{asset('js/jquery-3.2.1.min.js')}}"></script>
<script src="{{asset('js/bootstrap.js')}}"></script>
<script src="{{asset('js/bootstrap.js')}}"></script>
<script src="{{asset('assets/library/slick/slick.js')}}"></script>
<script src="{{asset('assets/library/slick/slick-init.js')}}"></script>
<script src="{{asset('assets/library/tinymce/jquery.tinymce.min.js')}}"></script>
<script src="{{asset('assets/library/tinymce/tinymce.min.js')}}"></script>
<script src="{{asset('assets/library/tinymce/tinymce-settings.js')}}"></script>
<script src="{{asset('js/isotope-docs.min.js')}}"></script> <!-- JQuery and Bootstrap JS -->
<script src="{{asset('js/app.js')}}"></script>
<script src="{{asset('js/grid.js')}}"></script>
<script src="{{asset('vendor/laravel-filemanager/js/lfm.js')}}"></script>
<script src="{{asset('vendor/laravel-filemanager/js/lfm.js')}}"></script>
I feel like this is a bit messy and far from optimal.
I did some poking around in resources/assets/js and saw that by default Laravel uses bootstrap.js and then grabs this in app.js. Also the items in bootstrap.js seem to be grabbed directly from the node_modules folder.
Is it better practice to instead include all the JavaScript libraries in bootstrap.js?
If so, could I install all these libraries via NPM and somehow include them in the bootstrap.js file? At least the ones that are available via npm.
Then in my footer I could just include app.js instead of my individual scripts.
You can use Laravel mix to concatenate, minify/uglify your JS, style assets.

gulp build task - concat and minify modules

What is a good strategy for concatenating and minifying modules?
I want to take this:
<script type="text/javascript" src="bower_components/angular-route/angular-route.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="bower_components/angular-bootstrap/ui-bootstrap-tpls.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="bower_components/angular-ui-router/release/angular-ui-router.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="bower_components/satellizer/satellizer.min.js"></script>
etc...
And make it this:
<script src="js/all_bower_components.js"></script>
I am running this build process for my other js files, which are concatenated and minified into main.js, but that's easy because my folder structure for my own JS files is relatively predictable. But my bower components is not:
bower_components/
angular/
angular.js
index.js
other random js files which aren't the ones I need
jquery/
dist/
jquery.js
src/
bunch of other crap
I am attempting it as such: Loop through all components and sub folders and simply search for .js files... but again, this could be including things I do not need like index.js in Angular:
gulp.task('modules', function() {
return gulp.src(['bower_components/**/*.js'])
.pipe(concat('modules.js'))
.pipe(uglify())
.pipe(gulp.dest('public/js'));
});
Any thoughts?
have you tried main-bower-files? this gulp plugin will capture all your base bower .js and .css by looking in your components' bower.json file for which files to grab (those listed as main). you can override the defaults within your call to the plugin for any requirements that don't match their bower.json config. i've found this very useful for bundling a vendor.js and vendor.css for a dependency-heavy app.
good luck!

404 error for bootstrap.min.css and bootstrap.min.js

I'm building a website and trying to use Bootstrap, however I'm unable to successfully call bootstrap.min.css and bootstrap.min.js.
I have Bootstrap unzipped in a new folder titled "Bootstrap" in my htdocs folder. In my Bootstrap folder I created a new folder to house my code for my website since this, in terms of organization, would be a lot easier. I also specified in my .html file to look for "bootstrap.min.css" and "bootstrap.min.js" in the following filepath in htdocs:
Folder Structure:
Bootsrtap folder with css, fonts, js, myWebsite subfolders, and test.html.
myWebsite folder with test.html
HTML (this is the test.html file in my "myWebsite" folder):
<!-- Bootstrap -->
<link href="Bootstrap/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet">
and
<!-- jQuery (necessary for Bootstrap's JavaScript plugins) -->
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.3/jquery.min.js"></script>
<!-- Include all compiled plugins (below), or include individual files as needed -->
<script src="Bootstrap/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
I tried running the example code off of Bootstrap's website and am getting a 404 Error for both of those files.
Since creating a new folder and then specifying the href wasn't working, I tried putting the sample code from Bootstrap's website directly into my "Bootstrap" folder and when I do this it works perfectly.
HTML (this is the test.html from the "Bootstrap" folder):
<!-- Bootstrap -->
<link href="css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet">
and
<!-- jQuery (necessary for Bootstrap's JavaScript plugins) -->
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.3/jquery.min.js"></script>
<!-- Include all compiled plugins (below), or include individual files as needed -->
<script src="js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
I think there is something with the filepath I specified but I've been unable to get it to work after working on it for the first half of the day. What I'd really to know is how do I correctly call the "bootstrap.min.css" and "bootstrap.min.js" files while still maintaining my current folder structure? Any help/advice will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
The paths for files are relative to your html file. For your test.html located in the Bootstrap directory you can access them by pointing at css/bootstrap.min.js and js/bootstrap.min.js. For your test.html located in the Bootstrap/myWebsite directory you can access them by pointing at ../css/bootstrap.min.js and ../js/bootstrap.min.js. The "../" will traverse up one directory into the parent of the current directory.
All your 'src' locations need a leading slash to indicate that the path is relative from the root folder (and not the current directory).
So your bootstrap location is like this:
src="Bootstrap/js/bootstrap.min.js"
Without a leading / character, the browser will append the src location to the current href location. For example, if the requesting page was at:
http://example.com/mydir/test.html
Then the browser would look for the bootstrap url at:
http://example.com/mydir/Bootstrap/js/bootstrap.min.js <<< note mydir here!
In most cases, you want to reference files from the root directory so that they don't change when you navigate to a page in a different directory. Your src location would look like this:
src="/Bootstrap/js/bootstrap.min.js"
When you have a leading forward slash, the browser ignores the current directory and assumes that the url is referenced from the root folder of your website (ie http://example.com/).
This would give an effective url for the browser to look up as follows:
http://example.com/Bootstrap/js/bootstrap.min.js
Which would be the correct one.
In summary, simply add '/' to all your paths and they will then be referenced from the root of your website and remain consistent whatever page/directory you happen to be on.

Just copy the original js and assets folder from the source code downloaded directory, and place them inside your directory where the index.html file resides. restart the webserver if necessary to reflect the changes. This worked for me :)
I had the same problem when using these lines
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.12.4/jquery.min.js"></script>
<!-- Include all compiled plugins (below), or include individual files as needed -->
<script src="js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
I have changed them to:
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/popper.js#1.16.0/dist/umd/popper.min.js"
integrity="sha384-Q6E9RHvbIyZFJoft+2mJbHaEWldlvI9IOYy5n3zV9zzTtmI3UksdQRVvoxMfooAo"

I got rid of that error now. I hope this is helping.

Importing less.js to laravel 5.1

I'm having a hard time getting my project to detect my less.js folder.
I'm using laravel 5.1, and I'm not sure where to put my less.js folder - since for Bootstrap and jQuery I just imported the src from a URL.
I currently have my less.js folder I downloaded under:
resources > assets > less > less.js folder I downloaded
I currently have my styles.less in my views while I try to figure this out.
My app.php head:
<link rel="stylesheet/less" type="text/css" href="styles.less" />
<script src="less.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
I'd appreciate if anyone could quickly let me know where to drop the folder!
Thanks!

The error in question:
Status 500 Type Script,
http://localhost:8000/reviewcourse/%3C!DOCTYPE%20html%3E%3Chtml%3E%20%20%20%20%3Chead%3E%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%3Cmeta%20charset=
Only assets published at public/ folder are available. So, you need to drop files there:
public/assets/less/download_folder/less.js
Then load it with:
<script src="{!! url('assets/less/download_folder/less.js') !!}" type="text/javascript"></script>
Another way/solution is to publish assets from /resources to public/ via Elixir:
elixir(function(mix) {
// location, origin
mix.copy('assets/less/download_folder/less.js', 'resources/assets/less/folder/less.js');
});
EDIT
I will assume that less.js is inside of public/assets/less/lessjs/dist/less.js. Then, load it as:
<script src="{!! url('assets/less/lessjs/dist/less.js') !!}" type="text/javascript"></script>
use this script at your html head
<script src="{!! asset('less/less.js') !!}" type="text/javascript"></script>
