Hi guys,
For current system, the Custom Script name is tight to a DocType.
This makes it impossible to have 2 Custom Scripts for the same DocType in a system.
Imagine I install 2 different apps, both need to have Custom Scripts on the same DocType.
This will not work right ? So why need to keep its name tight to the DocType ?
Should I just go to DocType Custom Script and adjust this ?
Thank you!
Try adding code to doctype via app hooks
https://github.com/frappe/frappe/blob/develop/frappe/widgets/form/meta.py#L70
Check this out.
You can add hook in your custom app to add js code to doctype
doctype_js = {
"Sales Order": ["yourapp/cscript_to_sales_order.js"]
}
I have not tried it myself, just stumbled upon while reading code. Hope it helps.
Do update on forms if it works.

Hey BhupeshGupta,
Thank you! It actually works. Just a highlight, the path is relative to the app where you put that hook. For example, the app structure is:
myapp
-- myapp
---- hooks.py
---- custom_scripts
------ salary_slip_custom.js
The hook will be just:
doctype_js = {
"Salary Slip": ["custom_scripts/salary_slip_custom.js"]
}
Just reload server and it will work. This way will be much nicer to develop apps rather than use Custom Script as a fixtures.
