Inlin for Craft
===============

[](#inlin-for-craft)

A tiny plugin for inlining files in Craft templates.

*This is the Craft 3.x version of Inlin, for the Craft 2.x version see the [master branch](https://github.com/aelvan/Inlin-Craft/tree/master).*

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

This plugin requires Craft CMS 3.0.0 or later.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

To install the plugin, follow these instructions.

1. Open your terminal and go to your Craft project:

    ```
     cd /path/to/project

    ```
2. Then tell Composer to load the plugin:

    ```
     composer require aelvan/inlin

    ```
3. In the Control Panel, go to Settings → Plugins and click the “Install” button for Inlin.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Use it like this:

```
{{ craft.inlin.er('/build/svg/my.svg') | raw }}

{{ craft.inlin.er('/build/js/my.js') | raw }}

{{ craft.inlin.er('/build/css/my.css') | raw }}

```

Why? [Sometimes](http://css-tricks.com/svg-sprites-use-better-icon-fonts/) it [makes sense](http://www.yottaa.com/blog/bid/306224/Inlining-for-Performance-When-to-Let-the-Cache-Go), performance or workflow wise, to inline resources instead of requesting them.

To include a remote file, pass in true as the second parameter:

```
{{ craft.inlin.er('http://example.com/remote/path.svg', true) | raw }}

```

Warning
-------

[](#warning)

Understand that inserting filedata in your templates, especially when passing it through Twig's raw filter, is a potential security risk. And the path is relative to your document root, so the path could point to a file anywhere on your server. **Make sure you never, ever let a third party control what is inserted.**In case you're thinking "meh", insert this into your template:

```
{{ craft.inlin.er('/../config/db.php') | raw }}

```

*"With great power, comes great responsibility" -Voltaire*

Configuration
-------------

[](#configuration)

Inlin needs to know the public document root to know where your files are located. By default Inlin will use `@webroot`, but on some server configurations this is not the correct path. You can configure the path by creating a config file called `inline.php` in your config folder, and adding the `publicRoot` setting.

#### Example

[](#example)

```
'publicRoot' => '/path/to/website/public/',

```
