README

Silex provider define addittional routes whitch are resolved as vendor assets (this is only helpful when you don't want to have vendor folder in public directory). For example:

project
  app - application directory 
  vendor - composer libraries
    author
      package
        assets
          css
          js
            file.js
          img
  public - http root folder
    css
    js
    img

If you want to access to package assets using public-vendor provider use this url:

<script src="/vendor/author/package/assets/js/file.js"></script>

Setup provider

$app = Silex\Application();
$app->register(new PublicVendor\ServiceProvider());

Setup vendor path

Default vendor path is __DIR__.'../../../../' as it should be in composer's vendor folder.

$app['public-vendor']->setPath('new/path');

Setup aliases

Alias helps to remove one part of vendor name, for example: from author/package to package.

This configuration:

$app['public-vendor']->addAlias('author/package', 'package');

will make this path available:

<script src="/vendor/package/assets/js/file.js"></script>

Setup sub paths

Sub paths define directory in package where asset are stored. This configuration:

$app['public-vendor']->addSubPath('author/package', 'assets');

will make this path available:

<script src="/vendor/author/package/js/file.js"></script>

Grunt Task:

If you are using usemin task you can add publicVendor task before useminPrepare. It's important to setup gruntfile.js in the same directory as composer's vendor directory. For example:

project
  vendor
  public
  gruntfile.js

Setup task

grunt.loadTasks('vendor/johnpitcher/public-vendor/tasks')
grunt.initConfig({
  publicVendor: {
    options:{
      aliases: { 'package' : 'author/package' },
      subPaths: { 'author/package' : 'assets' },
      baseDir: 'vendor'
    }
  },
  useminPrepare: { ... }
);
