If I have a repository in bower_components containing a folder with 50 JS files, I cannot include them one at a time in my Brocfile with app.import(). How do I include them all in the same call?
If I try to app.import an entire directory of js files, I get this error on compilation:
You must pass a file to 'app.import'. For directories specify them to the constructor under the 'trees' option.
what you are loocking for is the broccoli-static-compiler npm package which manage this perfectly, you can get it there : https://www.npmjs.com/package/broccoli-static-compiler and it's provieded with a nice documentation.

I'd like to incorporate fontawesome icons on my Foundation Sass project and I am having an issue. I have done everything as suggested by fontawesome team and yet it is not working...
I bower installed the fontawesome
I have added the scss file to the config.yml
I have changed the path name to fonts folder
https://postimg.org/gallery/1h018wsm8/
What I get in my browser is weird symbols and for some reason it is not working. Can you please tell me what I am missing? Thanks...
You have to #import the scss file from the bower_components folder in your Foundation _settings.scss or app.scss file.
The reference you have in config.yml is the PATH to the plugin/module not the import of the actual scss file. What this does is copy the *.scss files to the dist directory, but they still require referencing from your site/app code.
e.g. I use app.scss to import the various scss files and so my #import command for Font Awesome is:
#import '../../../bower_components/font-awesome/scss/font-awesome';
Note: this is to the specific file font-awesome.scss (where you set the font files path), not the whole directory so you also need to make sure you import the font files too which can be done via gulpfile.babel.js + config.yml.
I have a project that I would like to use foundation 5 with. I have been through the steps of creating a new foundation project using the CLI but I don't like it. There is too many files and the structure does not match what I want. So...
I am intending to add only the required files to my project and use compass to compile all the css.
I have noticed in the project created on the CLI a few things that confuse me and would like some help in clearing them up.
In the project created on the CLI there are two _settings.scss files one under the foundation directory in bower_components and one in MY_PROJECT\scss. I'm assuming that because of this add_import_path "bower_components/foundation/scss" line in the config.rb, which of those files has preference?
Why does MY_PROJECT/stylesheets not have normalize.css (or foundation.css) in it? And how are they not there? (in my custom setup they are being generated, albeit in subdirectories of stylesheets, also the foundation.css that is being generated for me has no settings changes applied so I guess it shouldn't be being generated)
If you take a look inside \bower_components\foundation\scss you'll see the file foundation.scss. That file imports all the stylesheets for all the additional components that come in the Foundation 5 "package." In your root scss directory, the app.scss is what compiles the SASS into \stylesheets\app.css. So rather than this:
#import "foundation";
Uncomment the individual components you'll be using. Something like this:
#import
//"foundation/components/accordion",
//"foundation/components/alert-boxes",
"foundation/components/block-grid",
//"foundation/components/breadcrumbs",
//"foundation/components/button-groups",
//"foundation/components/buttons",
"foundation/components/clearing",
"foundation/components/dropdown",
//"foundation/components/dropdown-buttons",
//"foundation/components/flex-video",
"foundation/components/forms",
"foundation/components/grid",
//"foundation/components/inline-lists",
//"foundation/components/joyride",
//"foundation/components/keystrokes",
//"foundation/components/labels",
//"foundation/components/magellan",
//"foundation/components/orbit",
//"foundation/components/pagination",
//"foundation/components/panels",
//"foundation/components/pricing-tables",
//"foundation/components/progress-bars",
"foundation/components/reveal",
"foundation/components/side-nav",
//"foundation/components/split-buttons",
"foundation/components/sub-nav",
//"foundation/components/switches",
"foundation/components/tables",
//"foundation/components/tabs",
//"foundation/components/thumbs",
//"foundation/components/tooltips",
"foundation/components/top-bar",
"foundation/components/type",
"foundation/components/offcanvas",
"foundation/components/visibility";
If you'd like to streamline your file structure, I would suggest you remove any scss files from the \bower_components\foundation\scss\foundation\components directory that you will not use. Same with the js directory. You don't actually need to modify anything in the bower_components directory to get everything to work. Not entirely sure why it's all contained within bower_components, but I imagine it's got something to do with being able to update the core components later with future releases.
Someone else could probably give a more educated answer.
p.s. - make sure to compass watch in your CLI to see any of those changes made to your SASS files.
I have an ember app, and a folder with a file playGame/game.js. This file includes game logic, and I want to import it for asset compilation.
If this file is under app/playGame/game.js and my Brocfile is like this:
app.import('app/playGame/game.js')
this gives the error, path or pattern app/playGame/game.js didn't match any files..
but if I put the file under bower_components/playGame/game.js and my Brocfile:
app.import('bower_components/playGame/game.js'), this compiles successfully.
What is the problem and solution here?
There are two parts to this:
Where should I put my file to import it as an asset?
Why isn't putting it in my app-folder working?
The way to do what you want is to create a folder called vendor in your root, put the file somewhere in there, and then import it in your Brocfile.js like so:
app.import('vendor/playGame/game.js');
This is documented on ember-cli.com, although somewhat hidden.
You could also put it in bower_components, but that folder is for things installed with bower, and could theoretically be deleted (in fact, this is a common recommendation to various issues). Things in bower_components is also not checked in to version control by default, which you probably want to do in this case.
This should solve your issue.
Now, why doesn't it work to put it in /app?
app is a special folder. From the documentation:
Contains your Ember application’s code. Javascript files in this
folder are compiled through the ES6 module transpiler and concatenated
into a file called app.js.
This is what makes it possible for you to import stuff from within your app. The folders in app is available directly under your <appname> namespace, along with some other files and folders like config/environment.
Example:
import myWidget from 'my-app/widgets/my-widget';`
The referenced file is /app/widgets/my-widget.js.
The ember-cli website has some more resources for how to use modules. Read those if this doesn't make any sense.
To sum up:
You could put your file in app, but that would make it part of your transpiled package, and you'd have to use it that way internally with an export and everything else that comes with it. It would end up as part of <appname>.js
You could put your file in vendor and import it in your Brocfile.js as explained above. It would be part of vendor.js and load before your app code.
I am packaging a Horizon Plugin. I have a bunch of templates, a view, as well as css, js files, and images.
Everything should be contained so that the package is either a .deb or a tarball. So right now I keep all files in /opt/stack/horizon/openstack_dashboard/dashboards/<my-dashboard-name>.
My question is, how do I include js and css files properly? There is /opt/stack/horizon/openstack_dashboard/settings.py file that specifies HORIZON_CONFIG.js_files, however it is always empty! I put a list of files there, it still comes out as empty in the templates. So the question is, how do I include js and css files in a Horizon dashboard plugin, for the purpose of packaging it in either a single tarball or a .deb package?
You should store static files below <my-dashboard-name>/static. It's best to namespace your static files, I use the following directory structure:
<my-dashboard-name>/static/<my-dashboard-name>/js and so on for css and img then I reference the files in the HTML templates with /static/<my-dashboard-name>/js/jsfile.js, that way you won't get any name collisions.
When someone uses your plugin they extract your dashboard and register it in the right places and then additionally they have to run the collectstatic django management command from the base openstack_dashboard directory (in your case /opt/stack/horizon/), either:
$ ./run_tests.sh -m collectstatic
or
$ ./manage.py collectstatic
That should copy your static files to the right places according to how the site has been configured.
The problem
Foundation 5 was released last week, that's great, but the new version requires to use bower for using F5 with SASS and the official documentation seems to be a bit incomplete and immature.
I'm trying to create a project using the steps proposed by the docs:
[sudo] npm install -g bower
and then
gem install foundation
No problems here. The problem is when creating a Compass project:
foundation new MY_PROJECT
cd MY_PROJECT
compass compile
After Compass compilation, I get the following error:
directory stylesheets/
error scss/app.scss (Line 1: File to import not found or unreadable: settings.
Load paths:
/home/cartucho/MY_PROJECT/scss
/var/lib/gems/1.9.1/gems/compass-0.12.2/frameworks/blueprint/stylesheets
/var/lib/gems/1.9.1/gems/compass-0.12.2/frameworks/compass/stylesheets
/home/cartucho/MY_PROJECT/bower_components/foundation/scss
Compass::SpriteImporter)
create stylesheets/app.css
Compass config file (config.rb):
# Require any additional compass plugins here.
add_import_path "bower_components/foundation/scss"
# Set this to the root of your project when deployed:
http_path = "/"
css_dir = "stylesheets"
sass_dir = "scss"
images_dir = "images"
javascripts_dir = "javascripts"
The SASS file (app.sass):
#import "settings";
#import "foundation";
...
The problem seems to be in config.rb:
add_import_path "bower_components/foundation/scss"
because Compass fail trying to import the files settings and foundation but I don't know how to fix it. Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks.
You need to change the line foundation new MY_PROJECT by replacing MY_PROJECT with the folder you want to install the project on. After that, confirm that these folders exist on the directory you specified above - "bower_components/foundation/scss"
When starting a project run compass init and then compass watch (in Terminal) to watch for changes on the .sass files.
Personally, I don't go that route and use http://koala-app.com/ to convert or "compile" my Sass. It's FREE and awesome.
This is SASS were talking about. Please correct me if i'm wrong but you don't need the underscore when importing an "include" file. I create separate sass files for my variables and my mix-ins. They are prefixed with and underscore which signifies an "include" file. SASS recognizes #import "variables"; as #import "_variables.scss". So to be clear when it is an include file just the name of the sass file is need not the _ or the scss extension.
I have never put an underscore before any include file that I have named _filename.scss.
There is probably another issue going on. Possibly with the install and the paths for bower. For those who did add the underscore in the past and it worked...well you just bypass what could become a deeper issue down the road. You need to check your install.
In your app.sass file change the following line
#import "settings";
To
#import "_settings";
Explaination
When you run compass watch you got the error
error scss/app.scss (Line 1: File to import not found or unreadable: settings.
This just means it can't find the settings file being imported. By adding the underscore to the settings file you have specified the correct file path. If you receive any other errors like this, make sure the file path is correct.
I think I had the same error; finally I found in the _settings.scss
You need to underscore before the importing the functions
Before:
// Uncomment to use rem-calc() in your settings
#import "foundation/functions";
After:
// Uncomment to use rem-calc() in your settings
#import "foundation/_functions";
Also you would need to import the settings same way.
In my example I made style.scss and import all the SCSS inside :
#import "foundation/_settings", "_normalize", "_foundation";
I encountered this same issue, but for me the solution was to change the import of settings in app.scss from:
#import "settings";
To:
#import "foundation/_settings";
Once you've done that, run compass watch again.
You can install Grunt into your project which uses compass's watch function and then some other clever stuff to compile your sass and livereload it in the browser! Here's a great tutorial on how to get it up and running! (it's as simple as creating two new files in the root of your project and then running a few commands from your command line! I seriously advise it!)

I had the same problem.
For Ubuntu 14.04 users make sure nodejs and Bower are working properly.
