Apperance --------- [](#apperance) [![Theme Preview](./theme-ss4-bootstrap4.png)](./theme-ss4-bootstrap4.png) Install ------- [](#install) Install via composer: ``` # composer require "ilateral/silverstripe-bootstrap-4" ``` Featured Images --------------- [](#featured-images) All page templates support `$FeaturedImage` by default (to act as a hero image/banner). You can either add a `FeaturedImage` to your page, or rely on a module, such as `i-lateral/silverstripe-featuredimage` Banner Images / Titles ---------------------- [](#banner-images--titles) This theme loads the title, breadcrumbs and any featured images into a `Banner` include. This means you can breakout and style the banner seperatly to the main site `Layout` You can also make the banner span the full width of the site by adding `FullWidthBanner` to true in your Pages or Controllers, eg: ``` class PageController extends ContentController { public function getFullWidthBanner() { return true; } } ``` Page `Layout` ------------- [](#page-layout) As more complex websites need more sophisticated markup, the `$Layout` variable is broken out into a seperate include (called from `Page.ss` master template). This allows the layout to be overwritten and altered without having to make changes to the core `Page.ss`master template (which allows for a slightly smoother upgrade path) Webpack ------- [](#webpack) Core CSS/JS is transpiled and minified via webpack and all bootstrap classes are injected into the webpack bundle. If you want to make use of webpack you will need to install [Yarn](https://yarnpkg.com/getting-started) ### Edit This Theme Directly [](#edit-this-theme-directly) If you are not using version control (eg: git) or have added this theme to your project's repo directly work with this theme. First navigate to the theme directory: ``` # cd /path/to/my/project/themes/bootstrap ``` Now install dependencies: ``` # yarn install ``` This will add `node_modules` to your theme and you can transpile dependencies using webpack: ``` # yarn dev # yarn build ``` ### Using a Sub Theme [](#using-a-sub-theme) As of SilverStripe 4 you can use a sub theme to extend this theme, and you can use webpack to include SCSS/JS from this theme in your own custom theme. **Step 1: Create your theme**Start off creating a theme with this structure (you can copy package.json and webpack.\*.js out of the parent theme): ``` /themes/custom - src - javascript - script.js - scss - _variables.scss - mystyles.scss - bundle.scss - editor.scss - package.json - webpack.common.js - webpack.dev.js - webpack.prod.js ``` **Step 2: Install dependencies**As above, you must run the following: ``` # cd /path/to/project/themes/custom # yarn install ``` **Step 3: Setup your Bundle and/or Editor**In `bundle.scss` you can import you own variable overwrites, and custom styles and bring them inline with the parent theme's by adding something like this: `themes/custom/src/scss/bundle.scss` ``` @import "../../node_modules/bootstrap/scss/functions"; @import "global/fonts"; @import "global/variables"; /** * Parent theme includes. Enable, re-name as required * to custom parent theme */ //@import '../../../[THEME]/src/scss/global/variables'; @import "../../node_modules/bootstrap/scss/variables"; /** * Import core bootstrap modules (only two provided as an example) */ @import "../../node_modules/bootstrap/scss/mixins"; @import "../../node_modules/bootstrap/scss/root"; /** * Parent theme imports (enable, re-name as required) */ @import '../../../[PARENTTHEME]/src/scss/global/typography'; @import '../../../[PARENTTHEME]/src/scss/global/global'; @import '../../../[PARENTTHEME]/src/scss/global/header'; @import '../../../[PARENTTHEME]/src/scss/global/body'; @import '../../../[PARENTTHEME]/src/scss/global/footer'; @import '../../../[PARENTTHEME]/src/scss/global/misc'; @import '../../../[PARENTTHEME]/src/scss/layout/homepage'; /** * Import custom styles */ @import "mystyles.scss"; ``` **NOTE You may want to also add something similar to toyr `editor.scss`** **Step 4 (optional): Add JS**If you need to add custom Javascript, you can either add it to your theme's `script.js` or add additional JS files. **Step 4: Check Webpack Config**The theme's webpack config wil be used to transpile and minify all the SCSS/JS. For the most part, you shouldn't need to change this, but if you add new JS files or make more complex changes you might need to update mappings **Step 5: Run a build**Once everything is ready, you can transpile and minify your CSS/JS. You can do this via: ``` # yarn dev ``` OR ``` # yarn build ``` `yarn dev` is quick, performs less checks and doesn't minify, good for development. `yarn build` performs linting and also minifies compiled code. ### Health Score 42 — FairBetter than 89% of packages Maintenance44 Moderate activity, may be stable Popularity20 Limited adoption so far Community16 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity75 Established project with proven stability Bus Factor2 2 contributors hold 50%+ of commits How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
