README.md

Managing CSS and JavaScript in Chamilo.

The folder "assets" will be processed by the js library Webpack Encore and the result will be saved in public/build folder.

For this, we first need to install yarn. Yarn is a JavaScript dependencies manager similar to Bower (that we also used for development in Chamilo 1.11.x), only that Bower is deprecated now.

To install yarn, follow the installation instructions here https://yarnpkg.com/en/docs/install

After the installation run this command in the Chamilo root:

yarn install

yarn will read the dependencies in the packages.json file and save the dependencies in the 'node_modules' folder (which must NOT be committed** to the Chamilo repository).

Configuring Encore/Webpack

Webpack takes CSS, JS and other files and generates tidy single-files to attach to your web package.

The behaviour of how packages will be processed is describe here: "webpack.config.js".

If the public/js/fos_js_routes.json file does not exist (or if you're in doubt about the version of your PHP libs), run:

composer update
bin/console fos:js-routing:dump --format=json --target=public/js/fos_js_routes.json

Then, to create the public/build contents, run one of the following commands: To compile assets just once:

yarn run encore dev

To compile assets and minify & optimize them:

yarn run encore production
