Assetic for CakePHP
===================

[](#assetic-for-cakephp)

Built to seamlessly integrate [Assetic](https://github.com/kriswallsmith/assetic) with [CakePHP](http://cakephp.org).

**This is an unstable repository and should be treated as an alpha.**

**UPDATE: Now that [@mark\_story](http://twitter.com/mark_story) has released [markstory/asset\_compress](http://github.com/markstory/asset_compress), I have stopped actively developing this plugin.**

Install
-------

[](#install)

```
composer require gourmet/assetic:*

```

or by adding this package to your project's `composer.json`:

```
"require": {
	"gourmet/assetic": "*"
}

```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

The `AsseticHelper` methods work somewhat like their `HtmlHelper` counter-parts but with some added options.

The methods are:

- **css**(*$path*, *$options*)
- **image**(*$path*, *$options*)
- **script**(\_$url, *$options*)

The added `$options` keys are:

- **debug**: *boolean* Defaults to app's configuration `debug` value.
- **output**: *string* Name of the Assetic created asset.
- **filters**: *array|string* Filter(s) to use. Defaults to the configured filters for the asset type (css, image, js).

The `$path` passed to `css()` and the `$url` passed to `script` can be passed as a string or as an associative array (see examples below).

Examples
--------

[](#examples)

```
echo $this->Assetic->css('cake.generic', ['debug' => false, 'filters' => 'cssmin']);
echo $this->Assetic->css(['cake.generic' => 'cssmin'], ['debug' => false]);
echo $this->Assetic->css('cake.generic');
```

All the above examples will have the same result, including the minified version of `cake.generic.css`. For the last example, it is assumed that the value of the `Assetic.cssFilters` configuration contains at least the `cssmin` key.

```
$this->Assetic->css('cake.generic', ['filters' => 'cssmin,?uglify']);
```

In the above example, when in debug mode, only the `cssmin` filter will be run.
