Assets in JavaScript - Symfony2

Question

I've got a problem, I am using Head.js plugin to import several js files in my template. Each file has a normal path e.g. assets/js/clock/date.js

The problem is that neither I can use the path directly in importing nor using the twig asset() function to get path to these files. As an example this is what I have in a separate js file

head.js("../assets/js/newsticker/jquery.newsTicker.js", function() { ... });

How can I get access to the files in folder assets inside a javascript file?

Provide your code; Why you cannot use asset() function? I guess you are referencing those javascript file in a twig file — Javad

for example I've got something like that:  head.js("../assets/js/newsticker/jquery.newsTicker.js", function() { var nt_title = $('#nt-title').newsTicker({ row_height: 18, max_rows: 1, duration: 5000, pauseOnHover: 0 }); }); — kgruszowski

What you need is a global javascript defined variable in your twig which contains the path of whatever you want to load; for example

var generalPath = "{{ asset('path/to/your/asset') }}";

now you can call the function as header.js by concatenating with the defined global variable as

head.js(generalPath + 'jquery.cookie.js');
