Async Script Loader with Callback

Last updated on: January 3, 2012

var Loader = function () { }
Loader.prototype = {
    require: function (scripts, callback) {
        this.loadCount      = 0;
        this.totalRequired  = scripts.length;
        this.callback       = callback;

        for (var i = 0; i < scripts.length; i++) {
            this.writeScript(scripts[i]);
        }
    },
    loaded: function (evt) {
        this.loadCount++;

        if (this.loadCount == this.totalRequired && typeof this.callback == 'function') this.callback.call();
    },
    writeScript: function (src) {
        var self = this;
        var s = document.createElement('script');
        s.type = "text/javascript";
        s.async = true;
        s.src = src;
        s.addEventListener('load', function (e) { self.loaded(e); }, false);
        var head = document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0];
        head.appendChild(s);
    }
}

Usage

var l = new Loader();
l.require([
    "example-script-1.js",
    "example-script-2.js"], 
    function() {
        // Callback
        console.log('All Scripts Loaded');
    });
