- 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
