I'm building a mobile application using IBM Worklight. In an adapter, I need to use some functionality which is provided by a third party JavaScript file. I want to know if it's possible to include such a file on the server? If not, what is the alternative?

  • There is a Feature Request opened at IBM to implement this feature. You can vote in it. https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/rfe/execute?use_case=viewRfe&CR_ID=43578 – Rafael Leonhardt Nov 25 '14 at 12:16

At the moment there is no way to include an external JavaScript library in the Adapter code. Currently the only workaround is to copy the library code to the adapter.

In Worklight 6.0.0, IBM introduced Node.js adapters, touting "a huge selection of third-party modules extending connectivity and providing implementations of various common backend constructs". That sounds like JS library support to me. Details here: https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/blogs/worklight/entry/a_preview_of_node_js_adapters_in_worklight_6_0_0?lang=en

    It was unavailable on version 6.1 and 6.2. Source: https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/blogs/worklight/entry/a_preview_of_node_js_adapters_in_worklight_6_0_0?lang=en – Rafael Leonhardt Nov 25 '14 at 12:01
