Prepare

Required

1. Install or update Node.js;
2. Install Yarn - fast package manager (like a npm), usage.

Optional

1. Install editorconfig plugin for your editor (PhpStorm, Sublime Text, Atom, VS Code) - consistent coding style between different editors and IDEs;
2. Install eslint plugin for your editor (PhpStorm, Sublime Text, Atom, VS Code) - the pluggable linting utility for JavaScript.

Start

   git clone [email protected]:evgen3/mpa-frontend-template.git your-project-name
   

2. Enter in project folder and remove .git folder:

   cd your-project-name && rm -rf .git
   

3. Install dependencies with yarn:

   yarn
   

4. Use build commands:
   • yarn build - build project for production (includes UglifyJSPlugin, cssnano);
   • yarn watch - build and start watching for development (includes sourcemaps);
   • yarn start - build, watch and local server for development (includes reload on change files);
   • yarn lint - lint js code in src folder with airbnb rules.

Cookbook

Include image in template

In file pug/includes/require.pug located function, usage:

img(src='upload/sample.jpg' srcset=`upload/[email protected] 2x` alt='')
.block(style='background-image: url(upload/sample.jpg);')

For short include in file pug/mixins/img.pug located mixin, usage:

+img('sample.jpg')(alt='image').some-class

Attention! This mixin requires a picture in a double size (for srcset) and the link is already included upload/ directory.

Include plugins/libraries

CSS

Install dependency (for example, swiper):

yarn add swiper

Import dependency in main.styl once:

@require '~swiper/dist/css/swiper.css'

Symbol ~ in styl points to a node_modules folder.

JS

jQuery plugins

Install dependency (for example, sticky-kit):

yarn add sticky-kit

Import dependency in main.js once:

import 'sticky-kit/dist/sticky-kit';

Other libraries

Install dependency (for example, swiper):

yarn add swiper

Import in the file in which you need the dependency:

import Swiper from 'swiper/dist/js/swiper';

Alias @ in stylus and js

@ in path points to src folder, with it you can create an absolute path. CSS:

src: url("~@/font/rouble-webfont.woff") format("woff")

JS:

import module from '@/js/module';

Using svg-sprite

Put the icon in /ico folder

And add code in your template:

<svg class="your-class" width="193" height="40">
  <use xlink:href="#your-icon-file-name"></use>
</svg>

Or you can use pug-mixin:

+icon('your-icon-file-name')(width=193 height=40).your-class
