Ever wanted a nice design based on Bootstrap for your web pages ? .. and of course, with minimal effort ?

Well, yii2-bootswatch-asset is just what you need, an Asset bunlde around the Bootswatch theme suite. Visit Bootswatch for more.

Installation ¶

The preferred way to install this extension is through composer.

Either run

php composer.phar require --prefer-dist raoul2000/yii2-bootswatch-asset "*"

or add

"raoul2000/yii2-bootswatch-asset": "*"

to the require section of your composer.json file.

Usage ¶

To use a bootswatch theme in your Yii2 application, add the BootswatchAsset bundle to your main AppAsset bundle:

// ./assets/AppAsset.php

class AppAsset extends AssetBundle
{
    public $depends = [
        'yii\web\YiiAsset',
        // let's add the BootswatchAsset here
    	'raoul2000\bootswatch\BootswatchAsset',
    ];
}
?>

Then at some point you must select the theme name you want to use. In the example below, the theme 'cosmo' is set in the main layout.

// ./views/layouts/main.php

raoul2000\bootswatch\BootswatchAsset::$theme = 'cosmo';
AppAsset::register($this);

For more information on the plugin options, please refer to yii2-bootswatch-asset@github.

Minimum stability

Be sure to change the asterisk to dev-master if your minimum stability is set to a higher value.

EDIT:

raoul2000\bootswatch\BootswatchAsset::$theme = 'amelia';

Hi Dastiii,

I'm not very familiar with composer, so I'm not sure to understand what you mean by "minimum stability".

What is the difference between * and 'dev-master' in terms of "stability" ?

@Raoul

Shouldn't be a problem anymore since there is a 1.1.0 version now. Previously there only was a 'dev-master' version.

If you had your minimum stability in your composer.json set to anything else than 'dev' then composer couldn't find a matching version when using an asterisk. That's because it searches for the latest version with a stability that equals at least your 'minimum stability' setting.

In those cases you have to specify an explicit version, thats why I had to change the asterisk to dev-master (minimum stability of my composer.json was beta).

@dastiii

ok I understand now. Thanks for the explanation.

By the way, the version 1.1.0 fixed an issue with the glyphicons that were not correctly published.

ciao

@Raoul

Hi,
I cannot access glyphicons. I changed from '*' to 'dev-master' to '>=1.2.0' to '1.2.0' and finally '1.1.0'.

Could you please tell me how I can reference glyphicons with raoul2000/yii2-bootswatch-asset ?

Thanx in advance.

P.S. I'm referencing them like below:-

[
                    'label' => Yii::$app->user->identity->username,
                    'url' => '#',
                    'template' => '<a href="{url}" class="dropdown-toggle" data-toggle="dropdown"><i class="glyphicon glyphicon-user"></i> {label} <i class="icon-angle-down"></i></a>',
                    'visible' => !Yii::$app->user->isGuest
]

The 'icon-angle-down' works fine. Just not glyphicons.

Missing woff2 File in assets Folder

Thanks for this extension!

In the generated assets/.../fonts folder, the file glyphicons-halflings-regular.woff2 is missing.

Adding woff2 to line 54 in the file BootswatchAsset.php seems to fix it:

return in_array($ext,['css','eot','svg','ttf','woff','woff2']);

Maybe also clear the web/assets folder...

Regards,
Joachim

@jweneer and @gittinold

Hi guys,

@jweneer: Good catch ! ... Thanks, I'll implement your modification and release a new version (soon)

@gittinold: that's strange .. since 1.1.0 glyphicons are published correctly. Can you try to empty your app/web/assets folder so it gets re-published again ?

ciao
