elboletaire / less-cake-plugin Goto Github PK

Hi,

I try to generate a css URL with full base.
How can I get this to work?

$this->Less->less('less/pdf.less', ['fullBase' => true]);

does not work.

thanks & regards

When using an optional $options['cache_dir'] parameter the CSS file that gets created will be created in that directory instead of the CSS directory.

However the \Less_Cache::Get function returns the basename() of the generated file.

The result of this problem is that the filename that gets passed to $this->Html->css a basename() and the filename that gets generated by \Less_Cache::Get is inside the ['cache_dir'] directory.

There are 3 scenarios.

1. No $options['parser']['cache_dir']
2. $options['parser']['cache_dir'] that begins with / relative to WWW_ROOT
3. $options['parser']['cache_dir'] that does not begin with / relative to /css

The $this->compile() function looks like this:

if ($cache) {
   if( !isset($options['cache_dir'])){
      $options['cache_dir'] =$this->cssPath;
   } else if( substr( $options['cache_dir'], 0, 1 ) =='/'){
      $options['cache_dir']  = WWW_ROOT . $options['cache_dir'];
   } else {
      $options['cache_dir']  = trim($this->cssPath, '/') . $options['cache_dir'];
   }
   return \Less_Cache::Get($parse, $options, $modifyVars);
}

Inside the $this->less() function looks like this:

   $cache_dir = isset($options['parser']['cache_dir']) ? $options['parser']['cache_dir'] : "";
   $css = $cache_dir . $this->compile($less, $options['cache'], $options['parser'], $modifyVars);

Not sure whether I can configure Less helper to remove old compiled css files.

At the moment, I have written my own tool. Would be OK for an APP but absolutely inconvenient for plugins.

$ composer require elboletaire/less-cake-plugin

Is there any plan to support CakePHP 4? I can't upgrade my CakePHP because this package is dependent on CakePHP 3.

SourceMaps are awesome for developing using languages like LESS.

It would be great to have this option set by default when app's debug is > 1

When Html->css is called on line 157, there is no way to set options.

I've made this small change which allows for setting Html->css options.

$cssOpt = isset($options['cssopt'] )?$options['cssopt']:[];
return $this->Html->css($css,$cssOpt);

Add useful information about $modify_vars on the readme file

Hello, it's me again. :)

The CakePHP guys changed the plugin's directory in their latest commit. Now every plugin is saved into the vendor folder. So your plugin is working without problems, but only if I copy the LessHelper.php into \View\Helper directory.

If you will have some time, maybe you can look into it. :) Thanks!

Using fullBase urls generates issues if you're using cache and your app works on both SSL and non-SSL environment.

Disabling the fullBase setting should fix this issue.

Hi,

I have a little problem that I can't solve, when I try to pull my compiled less files in the css block, I got an error.

Here are the folders where are my files :

--webroot /
----css /
------style.css
------other.css
------less /
--------main.less
----js/
----img/

Here is the code I use :

echo $this->Html->css('less/main.less?', ['block' => true, 'rel' => 'stylesheet/less']);
echo $this->Less->fetch(); // it seems the problem comes from here
echo $this->fetch('css');

And the error :

The correct path is, obviously, this one :

For a reason that I can't find, "my_project" is duplicated in the path.
