Stamp for Craft
===============

[](#stamp-for-craft)

A tiny plugin for adding timestamp to filenames.

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

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

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Use it like this:

```

```

Which results in:

```

```

The er() method takes a second parameter for setting the format of the output. Possible values are `file` (default), `folder`, `query` and `tsonly`.

Example with `folder`:

```

```

Result:

```

```

Example with `query`:

```

```

Result:

```

```

Example with `only`:

```
Timestamp is: {{ craft.stamp.er('/assets/build/js/scripts.js', 'only') }}

```

Result:

```
Timestamp is: 1399647655

```

Hashing option
--------------

[](#hashing-option)

The `craft.stamp.er()` method takes a third parameter for setting the algorithm of the output. Possible values are `ts` (default), and `hash`.

`ts` stands for timestamp and behaves as shown above. `hash` gets the CRC32 checksum of the file instead of the timestamp. It's useful for cases when you need your cache busting to be fully deterministic.

For example:

```

```

Result:

```

```

URL rewriting
-------------

[](#url-rewriting)

For methods `file` and `folder` you probably want to do some url rewriting. Below are some examples of how this can be done, adjust as needed for your server and project setup.

Apache:

```
# Rewrites asset versioning, ie styles.1399647655.css to styles.css.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.+)\.(\d{10})\.(js|css)$ $1.$3 [L]  # /assets/build/js/scripts.1399647655.js
# RewriteRule ^(.+)/(\d{10})/(.+)\.(js|css)$ $1/$3.$4 [L]  # /assets/build/js/1399647655/scripts.js

```

nginx:

```
location @assetversioning {
    rewrite ^(.+)\.[0-9]+\.(css|js)$ $1.$2 last;  # /assets/build/js/scripts.1399647655.js
    # rewrite ^(.+)/([0-9]+)/(.+)\.(js|css)$ $1/$3.$4 last;  # /assets/build/js/1399647655/scripts.js
}

location ~* ^/assets/.*\.(?:css|js)$ {
    try_files $uri @assetversioning;
    expires max;
    add_header Pragma public;
    add_header Cache-Control "public, must-revalidate, proxy-revalidate";
}

```

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

[](#configuration)

Stamp needs to know the public document root to know where your files are located. By default Stamp 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 `stamp.php` in your config folder, and adding the `publicRoot` setting.

#### Example

[](#example)

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

```
