Including JavaScript in Phalcon views

Consider following two files:

// view/index.phtml
 echo \Phalcon\Tag::javascriptInclude("javascript/jquery.js"); 
// view/about/about.phtml
 echo \Phalcon\Tag::javascriptInclude("javascript/x.js");

About will generated like:

<script src="javascript/x.js">
<script src="javascript/jquery.js">

But x.js file is depended on jquery.js so it should placed before it.

Not sure if it fits the OP's use case, but for others searching, this pattern is pretty useful:

class MyController extends Phalcon\Mvc\Controller
{

    public function initialize()
    {
        $this->assets->addJs("/path/to/myjs.js");

    [...etc]

Suppose you have the following structure:

app/views/index.phtml
app/views/about/index.phtml

You can define the following in the app/views/index.phtml at the top

<?php echo \Phalcon\Tag::javascriptInclude("javascript/jQuery.js"); ?>
<?php echo \Phalcon\Tag::javascriptInclude("javascript/myother.js"); ?>

and then in the app/views/about/index.phtml

<?php echo \Phalcon\Tag::javascriptInclude("javascript/x.js"); ?>

That would get the jQuery.js and myother.js scripts to load before the x.js does, since the x.js will come in the master view with the 

<?php echo $this->getContent() ?>

Alternatively, you could set this in your master view:

<?php echo \Phalcon\Tag::javascriptInclude("javascript/jQuery.js"); ?>
<?php echo \Phalcon\Tag::javascriptInclude("javascript/myother.js"); ?>
<?php if ($is_about) { echo \Phalcon\Tag::javascriptInclude("javascript/myother.js"); } ?>

and in your About controller

$this->view->setVar('is_about', TRUE);
