JavaScript template for a HAML based view

I have a Ruby on Rails application that is using HAML based template views. I need to drop a simple:

alert('Hello World'); JavaScript excerpt template that I can build off that loads for the page.

If my controller's name is Foo and my actions name is bar, I put a bar.js.haml into app/views/foo/ and it doesn't seem to load any of that JS when I load the page up.

What can I do to debug this and get JavaScript embedded into my haml views?

Right, it's not going to auto include or auto reference another script for you. If you want to add javascript to the page using HAML:

:javascript
  alert('Hellooooooooooo');

Update with way to link to javascript file named "bar.js" in app/assets/javascripts

= javascript_include_tag "bar"
