sap fiori - jQuery.sap.includeScript().then() not working in SCP SAPUI5 app

Question

I'm trying to include googlemaps in sapui5

jQuery.sap.includeScript({
                url: "https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=XXXX",
                promisify: true
            }).then(function() { ... } )

This Promise works fine when I run in SAP Web-IDE Trial, but when I deploy it to hana cloud platform it is not working:

InterceptService.js:1 Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: u.indexOf is not a function(…) sap.ushell.cloudServices.interceptor.InterceptService._invokeFilters @ InterceptService.js:1

jQuery.sap.includeScript @ InterceptService.js:1

onAfterRendering @ Worklist.controller.js:37

InterceptService.js code fragment that produced this error is

{if(u.indexOf('/sap/fiori/../../')>0){u=u.replace('/sap/fiori/../../','/');}

I do use HCP Portal Service to produce HCP Fiori Launchpad Platform.

How to fix this? What I did wrong?

Thanks a lot!

Answer 1

It is indeed issue of InterceptorService, which does not support the syntax of includeScript with object as first argument.

I've forwarded a code of the solution to implementation team of HCP Portal Service and it will be fixed in the next release.

So far, you can achieve the same functionality with the following workaround:

new Promise(function(fnResolve, fnReject) {
    jQuery.sap.includeScript(
        "https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=XXXX", 
        "mapsScriptId", fnResolve, fnReject
    );
}).then(function() { ... } )

See how UI5 implements it: https://github.com/SAP/openui5/blob/rel-1.38/src/sap.ui.core/src/jquery.sap.global.js#L4387-L4389
