New subject: mw.util not loading with RL

30 Jun 2017


      You might prefer the using the $.when() idiom for this, which waits for
multiple concurrent promises, and is usable here given that $() is
essentially a shortcut to the internal $.ready promise, which is publicly
available per https://api.jquery.com/jQuery.ready/ – The following has
worked for years (since jQuery 1.8), and became documented (and officially
supported) since jQuery 3.
$.when(
  $.ready,
  mw.loader.using( [ 'mediawiki.util' ] )
).then(function(){
  // mw.util.addPortletLink( ... );
} );

If you both need to manipulate part of the page and need a specific
module,

probably this:
// If we haven't already started loading the module, start loading it:
mw.loader.using('mediawiki.util', function() {
  // Module is loaded, *but* it's possible the page HTML is not done. Wait
  // for it:
  $( function() {
    // Now it should be safe to do everything:
    mw.util.addPortletLink(....);
  } );
});
