Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Aloha from Justin Gordon and the ShakaCode Team! We need your help. Venture capital funding has slowed and, for the first time, my ShakaCode team is actively looking for our next project. If you like React on Rails, please consider contacting me if we could potentially help you in any way. I'm offering a free half hour project consultation, on anything from React on Rails to any aspect of web application development, including both consumer and enterprise products. You can read more about my background here. Whether you have a new project, or need help on an existing project, please email me directly at [email protected]. And thanks in advance for any referrals! Your support keeps this project going.

bootstrap-loader

Successor to bootstrap-sass-loader. Load Bootstrap styles and scripts in your Webpack bundle. This loader uses SASS to process CSS styles. Bootstrap 3 & 4 are supported.

NOTE: Bootstrap 4, (twbs/bootstrap)[https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap] is currently in alpha right now. Bootstrap 4 definitely worked when we first released this package. The parent company of this product, ShakaCode had originally planned to use it for our upcoming commercial product, but we decided that Bootstrap 4 was changing too fast for a production product. Thus, we're still using Bootstrap 3, and we're not actively developing with Bootstrap 4. Consequently, for Bootstrap 4 issues, we need one of:

  1. Community support to help us with Bootstrap 4 issues and pull requests.
  2. We'd be thrilled to have another maintainer join us to help with Bootstrap 4 issues.
  3. We'd also be thrilled if any companies are open to sponsoring the development of features and issues regarding Bootstrap 4.

That being said, Bootstrap 4 probably works just fine!

NEWS

2016-02-28: Released 1.0.9. Updated to support Bootstrap 4, alpha 2!

Installation

Get it via npm:

npm install bootstrap-loader

Don't forget to install these dependencies (use --save or --saveDev option per your needs to update your package.json):

# Bootstrap 3
npm install bootstrap-sass

# or Bootstrap 4
npm install [email protected]

# Node SASS & other loaders needed to handle styles
npm install css-loader node-sass resolve-url-loader sass-loader style-loader url-loader

If you're using Bootstrap 4, you probably need:

npm install postcss-loader

Usage

Simply require it:

require('bootstrap-loader');

Or add bootstrap-loader as a module in an entry point in your webpack config:

entry: [ 'bootstrap-loader', './app' ]

Config is optional. It can be placed in root dir with name .bootstraprc. You can write it in YAML or JSON formats. Take a look at the default config files for Bootstrap 3 and Bootstrap 4. Note, we recommend using a configuration or else you might pick up unwanted upgrades, such as when we make Bootstrap 4 the default. Config options don't fall back on the defaults once a config file is present. Be sure not to delete config options. To start with a custom config, copy over a default config file as a starting point.

---
# You can use comments here
useFlexbox: true

styleLoaders:
  - style
  - css
  - sass

styles:
  normalize: true
  print: true

scripts:
  alert: true
  button: true
{
  // And JSON comments also!
  "useFlexbox": true,

  "styleLoaders": ["style", "css", "sass"],

  "styles": {
    "normalize": true,
    "print": true
  },

  "scripts": {
    "alert": true,
    "button": true
  }
}

If no config provided, default one for Bootstrap 3 will be used.

Examples

Check out example apps in examples/ folder:

Common Options for Bootstrap 3 and 4

Here are common options for Bootstrap 3 & 4.

Bootstrap 3

loglevel

Default: disabled

Outputs debugging info. Set this option to debug to output debugging information. This is critical for debugging issues. The output will go to your webpack console.

loglevel: debug

bootstrapVersion

Default: 3

Major version of Bootstrap. Can be 3 or 4.

bootstrapVersion: 3

styleLoaders

Default: [ 'style', 'css', 'sass' ]

Array of webpack loaders. sass-loader is required, order matters. In most cases the style loader should definitely go first and the sass loader should be last.

styleLoaders:
  - style
  - css
  - sass

# You can apply loader params here:
  - sass?outputStyle=expanded

extractStyles

Default: false

Extract styles to stand-alone css file using extract-text-webpack-plugin. See extract-text-plugin for more details.

extractStyles: false

# Different settings for different environments can be used,
# It depends on value of NODE_ENV environment variable
env:
  development:
    extractStyles: false
  production:
    extractStyles: true

This param can also be set to true in webpack config:

entry: [ 'bootstrap-loader/extractStyles', './app' ]

preBootstrapCustomizations

Default: disabled

Customize Bootstrap variables that get imported before the original Bootstrap variables. Thus, derived Bootstrap variables can depend on values from here. See the Bootstrap _variables.scss file for examples of derived Bootstrap variables.

preBootstrapCustomizations: ./path/to/bootstrap/pre-customizations.scss

bootstrapCustomizations

Default: disabled

This gets loaded after bootstrap variables is loaded. Thus, you may customize Bootstrap variables based on the values established in the Bootstrap _variables.scss file. Note, if bootstrap did not have derived values, it would not be necessary to have two config files for customizing bootstrap values.

If you want your bootstrap override value to apply to derived variable values, then place your customizations in preBootstrapCustomizations. If you want to be sure your changes don't affect other derived values, place the changes in bootstrapCustomizations.

If you are not sure, you can probably simply use preBootstrapCustomizations and, if you have issues, see _variables.scss for derived values.

bootstrapCustomizations: ./path/to/bootstrap/customizations.scss

appStyles

Default: disabled

Import your custom styles here. Usually this endpoint-file contains list of @imports of your application styles.

appStyles: ./path/to/your/app/styles/endpoint.scss

styles

Default: all

Bootstrap styles.

styles:
  mixins: true
  normalize: true
  ...

# or enable/disable all of them:
styles: true / false

scripts

Default: all

Bootstrap scripts.

scripts:
  transition: true
  alert: true
  ...

# or enable/disable all of them:
scripts: true / false

useCustomIconFontPath

Default: false

If you're using a custom icon font and you need to specify its path ($icon-font-path) in your Sass files, set this option to true.

useCustomIconFontPath: true / false
$icon-font-path: ../fonts // relative to your Sass file
$icon-font-name: 'glyphicons' // you'll typically want to change this too.

Bootstrap 4

There is only one additional option for Bootstrap 4:

useFlexbox

Default: true

Enable / disable flexbox model.

useFlexbox: true

Tether

Additionally, Bootstrap 4 requires Tether. You can add Tether per the examples in the /examples directory.

  1. Add tether to package.json: npm i --save tether
  2. Add tether as an entry point to your webpack config.
  3. Add this plugin to your webpack config:
  plugins: [
    new ExtractTextPlugin('app.css', { allChunks: true }),
    new webpack.ProvidePlugin({
      "window.Tether": "tether"
    }),
  ],

PostCSS

Bootstrap 4 seems to require postcss:

  1. Add postcss and the the postcss-loader: npm i --save postcss postcss-loader
  2. Put postcss before sass in the order of loaders in your .bootstraprc file.

Glyphicons

Glyphicons have been removed from Bootstrap 4. The examples demonstrate how to use the font-awesome-loader

Additional configurations

Paths to custom assets

If you use bootstrap-loader to load your styles (via preBootstrapCustomizations, bootstrapCustomizations & appStyles) and you load custom assets (fonts, images etc.), then you can use relative paths inside url method (relative to SASS file, from which you load asset).

This was made possible thanks to resolve-url-loader. In common case you don't have to do anything special to apply it — we are doing it internally (just don't forget to install it). But if you want to use its custom settings, please provide it explicitly via styleLoaders option in .bootstraprc:

styleLoaders:
  - style
  - css?sourceMap
  - resolve-url?sourceMap
  - sass?sourceMap

Incorporating Bootswatch themes

The following steps are needed to successfully incorporate a theme from Bootswatch:

  1. Download the .scss files (_variables.scss and _bootswatch.scss) for the theme you have chosen.

  2. Put the files somewhere in your project structure (e.g. the ./styles directory).

  3. Add an additional SCSS file, like bs-theme.scss, that contains the following:

    @import './_bootswatch.scss';
  4. Add the following to your .bootstraprc file:

preBootstrapCustomizations: ./styles/_variables.scss
appStyles: ./styles/bs-theme.scss

The theme should now be applied as expected. Note that this section might be valid for other theme packs as well.

jQuery

If you want to use Bootstrap's JS scripts — you have to provide jQuery to Bootstrap JS modules using imports-loader. To avoid having to include jQuery in your project you can disable all scripts (see scripts).

module: {
  loaders: [
    // Use one of these to serve jQuery for Bootstrap scripts:

    // Bootstrap 3
    { test:/bootstrap-sass[\/\\]assets[\/\\]javascripts[\/\\]/, loader: 'imports?jQuery=jquery' },

    // Bootstrap 4
    { test: /bootstrap[\/\\]dist[\/\\]js[\/\\]umd[\/\\]/, loader: 'imports?jQuery=jquery' },
  ],
},

Note: if you're not concerned about Windows, the lines look like this (simpler regexp pattern):

// Boostrap 3
{ test: /bootstrap-sass\/assets\/javascripts\//, loader: 'imports?jQuery=jquery' },

// Bootstrap 4
{ test: /bootstrap\/dist\/js\/umd\//, loader: 'imports?jQuery=jquery' },

Icon fonts

Bootstrap uses icon fonts. If you want to load them, don't forget to setup url-loader or file-loader in webpack config:

module: {
  loaders: [
    { test: /\.(woff2?|svg)$/, loader: 'url?limit=10000' },
    { test: /\.(ttf|eot)$/, loader: 'file' },
  ],
},
