* Rename `app` helper to `resolve`, deprecate old version
* Rename $this->app to $this->container in service providers
We no longer couple Flarum\Foundation\Application to the Laravel container; instead, we use the container separately. Changing our naming to reflect that will make things clearer.
* Write source map without creating temp file
Less I/O, and one less place where we access the global path helpers.
* Drop useless app_path() helper
This was probably taken straight from Laravel. There is no equivalent
concept in Flarum, so this should be safe to remove.
* Deprecate global path helpers
Developers using these helpers can inject the `Paths` class instead.
* Stop storing paths as strings in container
* Avoid using path helpers from Application class
* Deprecate path helpers from Application class
* Avoid using public_path() in prerequisite check
a) The comparison was already outdated, as a different path was passed.
b) We're trying to get rid of these global helpers.
- Stop trying to implement Laravel's Application contract, which
has no value for us.
- Stop inheriting from the Container, injecting one works equally
well and does not clutter up the interfaces.
- Inject the Paths collection instead of unwrapping it again, for
better encapsulation.
This brings us one step closer toward upgrading our Laravel
components (#2055), because we no longer need to adopt the changes
to the Application contract.
This lets us or anyone modify the path from where dependencies (usually
installed into /vendor by Composer) are loaded. We need to be able to
tweak this in our integration tests, where the application code under
test needs access to certain dependencies.
Since these files are part of the same package, there is no need
to assume a Composer context to load these from. Instead, we can
just load them via the path relative to the current PHP file.
This assumption may break in certain environments, and it is
already broken when running (integration) tests.
- Simpler class naming:
Frontend\CompilerFactory → Frontend\Assets
Frontend\HtmlDocumentFactory → Frontend\Frontend
Frontend\HtmlDocument → Frontend\Document
- Remove AssetInterface and simply collect callbacks in Frontend\Assets
instead
- Remove ContentInterface because it serves no purpose (never type-
hinted or type-checked)
- Commit and add asset URLs to the Document via a content callback
instead of in the Document factory class itself
- Add translations and locale assets to Assets separate to the assets
factory, as non-forum/admin asset bundles probably won't want them
- Update Frontend Extender to allow the creation of new asset bundles
- Make custom LESS validation listener a standalone class instead of
extending RecompileFrontendAssets
Refactor Frontend + Asset code
- Use Laravel's Filesystem component for asset IO, meaning theoretically
assets should be storable on S3 etc.
- More reliable checking for asset recompilation when debug mode is on,
so you don't have to constantly delete the compiled assets to force
a recompile. Should also fix issues with locale JS files being
recompiled with the same name and cached.
- Remove JavaScript minification, because it will be done by Webpack
(exception is for the TextFormatter JS).
- Add support for JS sourcemaps.
- Separate frontend view and assets completely. This is an important
distinction because frontend assets are compiled independent of a
request, whereas putting together a view depends on a request.
- Bind frontend view/asset factory instances to the container (in
service providers) rather than subclassing. Asset and content
populators can be added to these factories – these are simply objects
that populate the asset compilers or the view with information.
- Add RouteHandlerFactory functions that make it easy to hook up a
frontend controller with a frontend instance ± some content.
- Remove the need for "nojs"
- Fix cache:clear command
- Recompile assets when settings/enabled extensions change
