Informations about the package packtacular
Packtacular
Packtacular is a fast and easy asset packer, compressor, manager.
We are all busy so we should not waste time dealing with asset packing. Im also going to skip all the "where the idea came from bla bla" so lets directly continue with how to use Packtacular.
don't forget that you need to grant write permission's for php.
Usage
First of all packtacular need's to know where your storage directory ( public directory ) is. If you don't set up the storage directory packtacular is going to use the relative path.
The thing here was "Hey let's keep it easy" so to create your package you only need to do this:
Packtacular::<type>( '<source>', '<target>' );Example:
This example will return an absolute public path to the package assuming that the target is the public root path.
/cache/stylesheet_1395407386.css
A bit more detail
Packtacular::<filetype>( <dir>|<files_array>, <target_file> );Type:
This means the basically the file extension. Packtacular::js will match all .js files in the given directory.
Source: I hope this is not to confusing. If you set a folder as source Packtacular is going to search in that directory for all files matching the given type. Alternatively you can pass an array of files.
Target: Define where the cache file should be created. You can simply pass a file path. To bypass the problem that the browser might cache the files on its own, you can add a timestamp to the path using the :time parameter.
Example with a fixed array
Filters

The normal filter can only modify the entire package.
