This package does not include the framework. It requires the official framework composer package from zurb and provides command line tools to setup foundation for development with laravel and compass.
Begin by installing this package through Composer. Edit your project's composer.json file to require aheissenberger/foundation
"require": {
"laravel/framework": "4.0.*",
"aheissenberger/foundation": "dev-master"
}
Next, update Composer from Terminal
$ composer update
Once this operation completes, the final step is to add the service provider. Open app/config/app.php, and add a new item to the providers array.
'Aheissenberger\Foundation\FoundationServiceProvider',
Run $ php artisan foundation:setup to create a basic skeleton to start:
app/assets
/sass
/sprites
/js
/img
Run $ php artisan asset:publish aheissenberger/foundation to copy all needed Javascripts to /public
Run $ php artisan foundation:demo to create a demofile /foundation.html of all foundation features in /public
In terminal an run $ compass watch app/assets/sass
This will create and update /public/css/app.css
You can use /app/assets/sass/_settings.scss to configure foundation and /app/assets/sass/_main.scss for your app specific css.
And to remove compression by compass change settings in /app/assets/sass/config.rb
Run $ composer update to update foundation and $ php artisan asset:publish aheissenberger/foundation to copy the new javascript files to /public
- config foundation with a native Laravel config file
- automatic include minified and combined version of javascript files
