Javascript not working on 2.0? about bootstrap-sass

[thomas-mcdonald]

norepro here, I've just got it working in my application.

I would point out that the API changed slightly for dropdowns, but if it works when you directly include it then I'm not sure where the problem is.

Possibly related: after updating bootstrap-sass from 1.4.3 to 2.0.0, I'm getting:

couldn't find file 'bootstrap-alerts'
(in /Volumes/Macintosh HD/Data/Dropbox/railswork/marqer/app/assets/javascripts/application.js:12)

The referenced line is

//= require bootstrap-alerts

Never mind. Twitter changed from bootstrap-alerts to bootstrap-alert. A foolish consistency...

Try this in application.js

//= require jquery
//= require jquery_ujs
//= require bootstrap

I was having the same problem until I moved the //= require bootstrap statement AFTER the //= require jquery_ujs statement.

@barriault twitter/bootstrap? Are you pulling in an additional library? bootstrap-sass doesn't have anything namespaced under twitter.

@thomas-mcdonald Sorry, I've been playing with both the bootstrap-sass and the bootstrap-sass-rails gems. But I was having the same problem in both my test applications until I moved the require AFTER the jQuery stuff.

[thomas-mcdonald]

The Twitter components depend upon the presence of jQuery, although they shouldn't need the UJS helper.

Thanks for the responses. Changing the require order fixes this for me.

I'm actually randomly running into this issue after everything working perfectly for so long.

The Dropdown JS suddenly does not work for me. Everything else works fine. I suspect there's some sort of JS clash somewhere, but I'm not sure where.

I think the problem started after moving the gem out of the :asset group because I was having trouble deploying to Heroku.
