Laravel 4：发布程序包的资产

Question

How to publish package assets? I've found a tutorial here: http://laravel-recipes.com/recipes/279

But when I tried to publish assets from my workbench, I get this error:

[RuntimeException]         
 Unable to publish assets.  

asset:publish [--bench[="..."]] [--path[="..."]] [package]

My command code is:

php artisan asset:publish --bench=Mypackage

How can I get my package assets to be published.

Thank you.

Answer 1

When you want to publish assets that are developed and stored in your workbench you should use the --bench flag. In your case you want to publish a package in the vendor folder then provide "myVendor/myPackage".

Publishing assets from a vendor package

php artisan asset:publish "vendor/package"

Publishing assets from a workbench package

php artisan asset:publish --bench="vendor/package"

I'll give an example with Twitter Bootstrap Package.

If you want to publish your assets in the folder "public/packages" :

php artisan asset:publish --path="vendor/twitter/bootstrap/dist"

If you want to publish your assets in the folder "public/" :

php artisan asset:publish --path="vendor/twitter/bootstrap/dist" "../"

Answer 3

You use the Workbench to prepare your own package for use in Laravel.

There is a directory structure for where to place your files:

/src
    /Vendor
        /Package
            PackageServiceProvider.php
    /config
    /lang
    /migrations
    /views
/tests

/public <---- the folder in question here

When preparing your package, any files that need to be accessible from the web server like imgs/css/js files (or assets as they are typically called in web apps) are put here.

Then when you enter the command:

php artisan asset:publish --bench=Mypackage

it will deploy those files into

/approot
/public
    /vendor/package/

When I wanted to copy Twitter Bootstrap (SASS version) for me worked only:

php artisan asset:publish --path="vendor\twbs\bootstrap-sass\assets"  .

it copied assets folder content (3 directories) to public/packages .

When I had no . at the end there was no message and nothing was copied.

And when I omitted assets directory in the command the whole vendor\\twbs\\bootstrap-sass directory content was copied to public directory what is of course unnecessary
