Acetate Asset Revisions
Use versioned assets with Acetate for cache-busting.
Install
npm install acetate-asset-revisions --save-devUsage
// in acetate.conf.js
var assetRevisions = require('acetate-asset-revisions')
module.exports = function(acetate){
acetate.use(assetRevisions({
manifest: 'build/assets.json'
}));
};The manifest option should be the path to a JSON file that maps orginal source names to versioned assets. Most build systems have a way to accomplish this including gulp-rev, grunt-filerev and hashmark for command-line users.
You will then have access to serveral helpers to use in your templates:
{% css 'path/to/css.css'%}{% js 'path/to/js.js'%}{% img 'path/to/img.jpg' 'alt text'%}
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<!-- will lookup css/style.css in your manifest and use the versioned URL -->
{% css "css/style.css" %}
</head>
<body>
<!-- will lookup js/main.js in your manifest and use the versioned URL -->
{% js "js/main.js" %}
</body>
</html>You can pass any additional HTML attributes you want as options.
{% css "css/style.css", media="print" %}- for standard string attributes use a key/value pair{% js "js/main.js", async=true %}- for boolean attributes passtrueas a value
Complete Examples
YOu can look at how to integrate Acetate and asset versioing into a complete build system in these samples:
- Grunt - Coming soon
- Gulp - Coming soon
- Command-line/NPM scripts
Assumptions
This project makes several assumptions about your project structure. Your manifest file must be a simple JSON file that maps original filenames to their versioned file names.
{
"css/style.css": "css/style-098f6bcd.css",
"js/main.js": "js/main-273c2cin.js"
}The path to this manifest file is assumed to be relative to your Acetate build folder.
