Difficulty following the installation procedure

[starx]

On the following step:

Create cache and assets directory with valid permissions. php public/index.php assetic setup

It gives me followinig error

Zend Framework 2.3.1 application
Usage:

Reason for failure: Invalid arguments or no arguments provided

The instruction is vague, because I also ran that command as privileged user but same error. However, the vagueness is this, installing the module will not affect the public folder, I wonder how the index.php will take assetic setup as its parameters.

It would be a better idea to tell a manual way to create folders for this module to work and which permissions it requires 777 or 755

Most of the modules for zf2 use config folder inside a module but you guys want the config to be placed in configs directory. On a default skeleton application, there is a no configuration to autoload config from configs directory, only configs in autoload directory at project root autoloads file. The assetic.config.php has to be configured in Module.php probably.

I found the instruction very vague and should be addressed I think to be make this more easier to follow.

I also face the same problem like @starx .Usage of this module is very hard.Please explain it with very simple way so that everybody can understand it.

I meet the same problem too. Try to follow these steps to resolve the above error.

1 - Add AsseticBundle into the application.config.file > modules like this :

'modules' => array(
     'Application',
     'AsseticBundle' // <= declare you want to use AsseticModule 
)

2 - Copy the assets.config.php.dist file from vendor/widmogrod/zf2-assetic-module/configs to the module where it will be used, for instance into module/Application/config, and rename it, for instance assets.config.php and remove the 'assetic_configuration' block to obtain this :

return array(
    // Use on production environment
    // 'debug'              => false,
    // 'buildOnRequest'     => false,
    // Use on development environment
    'debug' => true,
    'buildOnRequest' => true,
   ...
    ),
);

3 - Add the following line into the module.config.php file of Application module if you want to apply Assetic to that module :

    // Placeholder for console routes
    'console' => array(
        'router' => array(
            'routes' => array(
            ),
        ),
    ),
    'assetic_configuration' => require 'assets.config.php'

4 - Finally, try to run the command again :

php public/index.php assetic setup
