Thanks for this article. It was helpful. Changing the declaration of your JavaScript function may simplify things a bit:

// in your html
<a href="#" onclick="dosmth()">dosmth</a>


// javascript/packs/custom.js
window.dosmth = function() {
  alert('hello');
}

// I don't think you need the export default dosmth;
// export default dosmth;


// In your javascript/packs/application.js I don't think you need the corresponding declarations:

// import dosmth from './custom'
// window.dosmth = dosmth
