Inject html only on one page

Development
1

I have something like this in my JS tab of my theme:

import { apiInitializer } from "discourse/lib/api";


export default apiInitializer("0.11.1", (api) => { 
    api.renderInOutlet("above-main-container",
        <template>
            <div>
              html stuff
            </div>
        </template>
     );
});

I copy pasted that, it works (just an example)

How do I make this render only on the home page or only on the categories page

sorry if this is not a good question

It’s a good question, don’t worry about it! This will work:

import Component from "@glimmer/component";
import { service } from "@ember/service";
import { apiInitializer } from "discourse/lib/api";
import { defaultHomepage } from "discourse/lib/utilities";

class HomepageOnly extends Component {
  @service router;

  get shouldShow() {
    return this.router.currentRouteName === `discovery.${defaultHomepage()}`;
  }

  <template>
    {{#if this.shouldShow}}
      <div>
        html stuff
      </div>
    {{/if}}
  </template>
}

export default apiInitializer((api) => {
  api.renderInOutlet("above-main-container", HomepageOnly);
});

This creates a new component, which uses the router service and defaultHomepage utility to check if you’re on the homepage. Then the component is rendered in the outlet.

There’s a little more here: Add custom content that only appears on your homepage

Thank you Kris, that works perfectly. Thanks for the link as well, trying to learn.
