Escort
======

[](#escort)

##### An admin menu of extreme super awesomeness.

[](#an-admin-menu-of-extreme-super-awesomeness)

How To Use
----------

[](#how-to-use)

Escort does not use the Drupal menu system. Escort has its own menu system which is geared towards making the administration area easier-to-use for site administrators. The administration and configuration is located at:

```
admin/config/user-interface/escort

```

There, you can enable menu regions on any side of the admin area. Also, when hovering over an icon, you can edit/disable/delete items and click and hold the "Drag" text to move the items to another menu or order them differently in the same menu. The blue "+" (plus) icon allows you add escort widgets of a variety of types. Changes to the menu item order/placement take place immediately via AJAX.

Development Setup
-----------------

[](#development-setup)

First, you will need to install [NodeJS](https://nodejs.org/en/download/package-manager/).

Run the following from the command line within the /dev folder:

```
npm install

```

Make a copy of dev/config/example.config.js and set your local development settings here. Add this file to your .gitignore file to prevent breaking of team-members' dev setup.

```
cp example.config.js config.js

```

Run the following from the command line from the module directory to have gulp compile and watch for changes to both .scss files and .js files found within the /dev folder.

```
gulp

```
