javascript - Ruby on Rails - Getting datatables to load 100% of time and not just on refresh -

my ruby on rails application has datatables; however, appear after user goes page , refreshes once. doesn't appear when go page.

here javascript that's run prior page loading (because it's before html content);

(function() { jquery(function() { homecoming $('#items').datatable(); }); }).call(this);

however, thought using may help, didn't:

$(document).ready(function() { $('#items').datatable(); });

any suggestions on how accomplish goal easily?

whenever happens me, find culprit turbolinks. should able utilize 1 of 2 options around it.

the first workaround js has been passed around quite bit.

var ready; ready = function(){ //your js scripts go here }; $(document).ready(ready); $(document).on('page:load', ready);

or can update link_to helper using page skip turbolinks when loading page:

<%= link_to "where you're going", add_product_path, data: { no_turbolink: true } %>
