Third-party patches are essential for an awesome project. The asset pipeline started as a proof of concept trying to incorporate own ideas. We want to keep it as easy as possible to contribute changes that get things working in your environment too. There are a few guidelines that we need contributors to follow so that we can everything sorted out.
Just go to the namespace asssetpipeline\assetpipes
and check out existing pipes to figure out what is going on.
Writing an own pipe can be accomplished just by extending the AbstractAssetPipe.php
and implementing the process()
-method.
This function will be called and passed an argument with the path to the file in question. Process the file in any fashion necessary and return the file's content (not the path). Caching and any other logic will be handled from there on.
Finally, register your file in the lmvc-module's
root directory's bootstrap.php
. The only thing you have to decide on is your pipes type which is basically the url it will be accessible under. Thereby, registering a pipe with assetpipes\CoffeescriptPipe::register(['coffee'])
will make your pipe available at assetpipeline/coffee
including file and argument parsing.

then checkout the new branch withgit checkout feature/my-addition
- Make commits of logical units.
- Check for unnecessary whitespace with
git diff --check
before committing. - Make sure your commit messages are in the proper format.
- Push your changes to a topic branch in your fork of the repository.
- Submit a pull request to the repository.
- Wait for us to check our your awesomeness!
