I have a react app bundled dist/ folder which is hosted on some url (http://localhost:8000).
This dist folder comprises of
main.js
vendor.js which is a chunk for node_modules
app.[fullhash].js JS Chunk of component called App
app.[fullhash].css CSS Chunk of component called App
Now I have created other react app in which I want to use this code.
When I use
<script src="http://localhost:8000/vendors.js" type="text/javascript" async></script>
<script src="http://localhost:8000/main.js" type="text/javascript" async></script>
the above part of code directly in my index.html file, It is automatically loading respective chunks(app.[fullhash].js, app.[fullhash].css) also. Which is what I wanted.
But I want to add the script dynamically using Javascript instead of adding it in HTML file.
So I used
const scriptElVendors = document.createElement('script');
scriptElVendors.src = 'http://localhost:8000/vendors.js'
scriptElVendors.type = 'text/javascript';
scriptElVendors.async = true;
document.head.appendChild(scriptElVendors);
const scriptElMain = document.createElement('script');
scriptElMain.src = 'http://localhost:8000/main.js'
scriptElMain.type = 'text/javascript';
scriptElMain.async = true;
document.head.appendChild(scriptElMain);
When I use this, It is only fetching main.js and vendors.js but not the respective chunks.
I want to add script tags dynamically using JS. And also it should automatically fetch the chunks also.
Can anyone help me solve this?
I tried using relative import from local filesystem and also from the server. In both of these, Adding script dynamically using JS didn't fetch respective chunks.
