I was able to find a resolution on StackOverflow to fix an event handler.
I initially opted to added $(document).ready(...)
and $(document).on('page:load', ...)
handlers as follows:
ready = ->
$('form').on 'click', '.clickable_class', (event) ->
# doStuff
# added lines:
$(document).ready(ready)
$(document).on('page:load', ready)
However, another answer recommended adding the jquery-turbolinks instead. Browsing the source code, it appears that this gem effectively auto-registers those handlers instead.
After installing jquery-turbolinks, I was able to add require jquery.turbolinks
to my app/assets/javascripts/application.js
manifest:
//
//= require jquery
//= require jquery.turbolinks
//= require jquery_ujs
//= require turbolinks
//= require_tree .
With that, my script could go back to:
$ ->
$('form').on 'click', '.clickable_class', (event) ->
# doStuff
# added lines:
$(document).ready(ready)
$(document).on('page:load', ready)
