Support of relative path when loading JavaScript files

[tonytomov]

Hello,

In my projects I prefer to use loading the JavaScript files via PHP.
This is very good, but in my case, every report has a separate PHP file in separate directory.

In your script StiJavaScript.php you already have a variable which do partial solution to relative paths
It is called useRelativeUrls and if set to true you do like this

    $root = $this->useRelativeUrls ? '' : '/';
    $result .= "<script src=\"{$root}vendor/stimulsoft/$product/scripts/$name\" type=\"text/javascript\"></script>\n";

This assumes that the report php file should be placed in root project directory, which causes error when it is not here.

I suggest to add new property like relativePath and change the code like this

....
    public $usePacked = false;
    public $useRelativeUrls = true;
    public $relativePath ="";    // <-- here r=the new properrt
.....

    foreach ($scripts as $name) {
        $product = strpos($name, 'dashboards') > 0 ? 'dashboards-php' : 'reports-php';
        $root = $this->useRelativeUrls ? $this->relativePath : '/';  //     <----- here the fix
        $result .= "<script src=\"{$root}vendor/stimulsoft/$product/scripts/$name\" type=\"text/javascript\"></script>\n";
    }

And then I do

    $js = new \Stimulsoft\StiJavaScript(\Stimulsoft\StiComponentType::Viewer);
    $js->relativePath ="../../../";
    $js->renderHtml();

I hope you understand what I mean.

Of course there are better solutions, but I hope you will add this feature

Thank you.

Best Regards,
Tony
