How to add code just below opening body tag in Genesis framework

We need to add two snippets of code, one right below the opening body tag, and the other right before the closing body tag. What is the best way to do this? I checked out the wp_enqueue_script, but it appears the content would be in the head section.

  1. Did you even open header.php and take a peek? You’ll see genesis_before() called right after the opening <body> tag – follow the white rabbit and you get:

    function genesis_before() { do_action('genesis_before'); }
    

    And likewise for the footer. So…

    add_action( 'genesis_before', 'im_a_lazy_copy_paster' );
    add_action( 'genesis_after',  'im_a_lazy_copy_paster' );
    
    function im_a_lazy_copy_paster() {
        if ( current_filter() == 'genesis_before' )
            echo '<script>party.start();</script>';
        else
            echo '<script>if ( cops.called() ) party.split();</script>';
    }
    
  2. You were on the right track. wp_enqueue_script takes a parameter called in_footer which defines whether your script should be loaded before page content or at the end of the page body.

    $in_footer: (boolean) (optional) Normally scripts are placed in the <head> section. If this parameter is true the script is placed at the bottom of the <body>. This requires the theme to have the wp_footer() hook in the appropriate place. Note that you have to enqueue your script before wp_head is run, even if it will be placed in the footer. Default: false

    Here is the reference on codex: http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_enqueue_script

    1. After the opening body tag.

      add_action( 'genesis_before', 'my_genesis_script' );
      
      function my_genesis_script() {
      
      if ( current_filter() == 'genesis_before' )
      
      echo '<script>parties.over();</script>';
      
      }
      

    Structural Action Hooks

    genesis_before: This hook executes immediately after the opening tag in the document source.

    1. Before the closing body tag:

    You can add the script to the Genesis > Theme Settings > Header and Footer scripts and enter your script you would like output to wp_footer().

    The wp_footer() hook executes immediately before the closing tag in the document source.

  3. An update for GenesisWP 3.3.1

    Go to header.php

    ?>
    </head>
    <?php
    genesis_markup(
        [
            'open'    => '<body %s>',
            'context' => 'body',
        ]
    );
    
    if ( function_exists( 'wp_body_open' ) ) {
        wp_body_open();
    }
    
    echo '<script>parties.over();</script>';
    
    /**
     * Fires immediately after the `wp_body_open` action hook.
     *
     * @since 1.0.0
     */
    do_action( 'genesis_before' )
