README

Package made for those who understand the power of symfony/webpack-encore

Installation

Frontend

You can read more about webpack encore on official symfony's docs page.

For the Laravel project you'll only need next setup:

1. Install the node package
   yarn add @symfony/webpack-encore --dev

2. Create basic configuration file webpack.config.js

const Encore = require('@symfony/webpack-encore');

/* [configuration and entrypoints, see docs] */

module.exports = Encore.getWebpackConfig();

1. Add shortcuts to the package.json scripts section

{
    "dev-server": "encore dev-server",
    "dev": "encore dev",
    "build": "encore production",
    "deploy": "encore production"
}

Backend

1. Install the PHP library on your Laravel project
   composer require ntpages/laravel-encore

2. Copy the config files
   php artisan vendor:publish

3. Add the provider in config/app.php providers section

<?php
return [
   //...
   'providers' => [
      //...
      \Ntpages\LaravelEncore\EncoreServiceProvider::class,
   ]
];

You're ready to go!

Usage

It's as simple as just using the helpers from the package!\

For javascripts:

<?=encore_script_tags('app')?>

For stylesheets:

<?=encore_link_tags('app')?>

You can stop worrying about where you include the entry files the package manages duplications for you and prints tags only once per page render.
