Firing off client side javascript in a partial

[Shard]

Throwing this in themes as it's about a template. portion...

I'm working on a plugin that throws some site specific data in the user profile/homepage.

At the moment, I'm simply trying to fire it off, inline, after the div it'll populate.

<script type="text/javascript">
loadArrayOfStuff( [ 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1 ] );
</script>

So far as I can see, this just flat out doesn't work. The loading method for the template doesn't trigger the function call.

I did a few cursory searches but didn't find anything that SEEMED to apply. What is the recommended way to do the thing here?

I only want this to fire on the profile, so I don't think I want stick this in a widget...

@Shard take a look at this plugin as reference

https://github.com/pichalite/nodebb-plugin-reactions/blob/master/lib/client.js#L10

That function is setup to run on the topic page. You can do that similarly for profile page.

Oh for heaven's sake.

The console had turned the logging tab off and I hadn't noticed...

I'll be over in the corner with the dunce avatar on...

Well, I was part wrong. Seems that runs kinda inconsistently that way.

I discovered I couldn't pass the array as above from ( {myplugin.thearray} ) as the argument, found I couldn't iterate through that array unless I converted it to an array of objects.

But it won't launch in the iterated loop...

Augh.
