Asset Duct for Laravel 4 - Alpha

The Torann/Duct package is meant to simplify the creation and maintenance of the essential assets of a Laravel based application.

Note About Laravel 5

With Laravel Elixir in Laravel 5 I'm not sure if this package will be updated to support Laravel 5. Time will tell.

Features

• Out of the box supported for LESS, CSS, and JavaScript files.
• Support for custom post processors (SCSS, CoffeeScript, etc.)
• Combining and minifying of JavaScript and CSS
• Organize assets into manifest files
• Asset fingerprinting with support for images
• Asset support inside of LESS/CSS

Installation

• Asset Duct on Packagist
• Asset Duct on GitHub

To get the latest version of Asset Duct simply require it in your composer.json file.

"torann/duct": "0.1.*@dev"

You'll then need to run composer install to download it and have the autoloader updated.

Once Asset Duct is installed you need to register the service provider with the application. Open up app/config/app.php and find the providers key.

Then register the service provider

'Torann\Duct\ServiceProvider'

There is no need to add the Facade, the package will add it for you.

Create configuration file using artisan

$ php artisan config:publish torann/duct

Add to .gitignore

The local assets directory needs to be added to the .gitignore file. This reflects the asset_dir variable in the config file.

public/assets/*
