silverstripe-webpack

Simple WebPack boiler plate for SilverStripe

Checkout files at /site/ folder for details

Features:

• You can use /site/_config/webpack.yml to setup webpack server parameters which will be used by webpack server and by SilverStripe to serve static content
• You can use WebpackJS('file-name') and WebpackCSS('file-name') functions at templates to require JS and CSS. It will be served using static files or by using Webpack if the website in development mode and Webpack server is running
• WebpackTemplateProvider::WebpackJS('file-name') and WebpackTemplateProvider::WebpackCSS('file-name') can be used at php area
• All images will be optimised at /site/src/img and will be written to /site/dist/img (by default)
• Favicons will be generated at /site/dist/icons using /site/src/favicon.png
• Folder /site/src/js/types is used to create page specific JS (just create a JS file there and it will be compiled)
• Bootstrap 4 included by default

Folder structure:

• /site/_config/webpack.yml (Webpack configurtion)

• /site/code/WebpackTemplateProvider.php (WebpackJS and WebpackCSS functionality)

• /site/templates/Page.ss (An example Page.ss)

• /site/src (Your sources)

• /site/src/js (Your JS-scripts)

• /site/src/js/_components (Your JS components to be included)

• /site/src/js/_components/_spinner.js (An example to display and hide loading spinner)

• /site/src/js/app.js (main application file to include website-wide components)

• /site/src/js/main.js (Your custom site-wide functionality)

• /site/src/js/_events.js (Your custom site-wide events)

• /site/src/js/_pageType_and_component_template.js (A template which can be used to create new modules)

• /site/src/types/*.js (Extra page-specific modules to be autocompiled. My suggestion is to use ClassName.js and then require it at SilverStripe custom controller area)

• /site/src/scss (Your styling to be compiled)

• /site/src/scss/_components (Your custom SCSS components)

• /site/src/scss/app.scss (main application file to include sie-wide components)

• /site/src/scss/_variables.sccs (your custom variables, ex. bootstrap)

• /site/src/scss/_layout.sccs (Your site-wide styling)

P.S to compile page specific styling add following line to /site/src/types/PageClassName.js

import "../scss/types/PageClassName.scss";
