improve Helpers to work in front end

[Ali Majrashi]

Hello,

i'm developing new simple app that show statistics and it's difficult to use \IPS\Helpers\Chart\Dynamic in front end every things work fine except javascript since this class use javascript that only load in ACP the same thing with other Helper classes that only work in ACP

i think all helpers should be global and we can use them in front end and admin panel without limitations

i hope there is workaround on this limitation for now

Which JS is only loaded in the ACP?

ips.core.dynamicChart.js

for the Dynamic Chart Helper to work without issues

[HeadStand]

Have you tried loading it manually?

\IPS\Output::i()->jsFiles = array_merge( \IPS\Output::i()->jsFiles, \IPS\Output::i()->js( 'admin_core.js', 'core', 'admin' ) );

I don't see why that shouldn't work.

It only loads it once - it logs "loading" and "loaded". The ajax things logged are for the notification polling that goes on, and aren't because you've added more scripts. It doesn't show up in ACP because there's no live notification polling in ACP.
