not compatible with hyperloop webpacker recommended setup

[catmando]

currently for webpacker the recommendation is to pull in the client_and_server pack via the layout NOT from within the application.rb tree.

However hyper-spec by default assumes everything you need to run is in the application.js file.

The work around is to use the client_option method to force hyper-spec to use the application.html layout (or any other layout you want really) instead of the layout hyper-spec internally generates (which does not include client_and_server)

Perhaps the solution is to add intelligence about webpacker, but also to make the chunks of code generated by for the automatically generated client to be redefinable in your rspec_helper...

So at least as things change, you can temporarily work around.

You need a custom layout to get hyper-spec working with webpacker. Something like:

# app/layouts/hyper_spec.html.haml
!!!
%html
  %head
    = stylesheet_link_tag "application", media: "screen"
    = javascript_include_tag "application"
    = javascript_pack_tag "client_only"
    = javascript_pack_tag "client_and_server"
    = csrf_meta_tags

  %body
    = yield
    :javascript
      $.noConflict();

Hyper Spec includes jQuery in it's output with unfortunately clobbers your app's jQuery so any plugins you loaded stop working. Thus make sure to include the noConflict option as above - it returns your app's jQuery to the $ variable. If you're not using jQuery then take that out.

Also make sure the javascript_pack_tags match what you're actually using in your normal application layout.
