How do I load carousel.js from the bootstrap for a custom slide show?

In order to avoid duplicate bootstrap .js files and problems with them:
how do I load carousel.js from the bootstrap for a custom slide show?

Sorry, if the answer is already somewhere in docs or forum. I was trying to find but didn't see anywhere the answer.
I'm especially talking about the newest Exp 2.3.0 with patches.

That'd be the {script} smarty block. Looks like I hadn't updated the docs page to include the 'bootstrap' param available in v2.3.0+ http://docs.exponentcms.org/docs/2.3.0/script, but just like yui & jquery, you add a 'bootstrap' parameter with the list of bootstrap scripts you want loaded (without the .js suffix nor the 'bootstrap-' for bs v2.x). In this case the code would look like:

{script unique=bscarousel bootstrap='carousel'}
{literal}
// no code needed if blocks are set up per bootstrap docs
{/literal}
{/script}

Since I need to put it into t smarty block, I guess I would need to add a .tpl file there by all means? My carousel is coded straight into the front page sub theme called front.php, so I'm not tailoring any module for it.

OK, we can use the php equivalent of the above sample ('content' param not needed here, but it's where the javascript code goes)...

expJavascript::pushToFoot("unique"=>'bscarousel ","bootstrap"=>''carousel'',
"content"=>"// no code needed if blocks are set up per bootstrap docs", );

Actually
expJavascript::pushToFoot(array("unique"=>'bscarousel ","bootstrap"=>''carousel'',
"content"=>"// no code needed if blocks are set up per bootstrap docs") );
