The RdnAsset ZF2 module provides a very simple way to publish the public assets for all your modules.

How to install

1. Use composer to require the radnan/rdn-asset package:

   $ composer require radnan/rdn-asset:1.*

2. Activate the module by including it in your application.config.php file:

   <?php
   
   return array(
       'modules' => array(
           'RdnAsset',
           // ...
       ),
   );

How to use

Create a public/ directory in your module's root and place all your public assets there. Then, simply run the following command from your project root:

$ vendor/bin/console asset:publish

This will publish the module's assets to your project root's public/modules/ directory.

Now, you can include assets from this module by using the path /modules/<module-name>/<asset-name>. For example, in your view file you could do the following:

<?php $this->headLink()
	->appendStylesheet($this->basePath('/modules/rdn-asset/css/foo.css')) ?>

Asset source

By default, we assume assets are located in the <module-root>/public/ directory. If this is not true for a module, you can implement the getPublicPath() method on it which should return the actual path to its assets:

namespace App;

class Module
{
	public function getPublicPath()
	{
		return 'module/app/public-foo';
	}
}

Publish path

Assets are published to the <project-root>/public/modules/ directory. By default, the Symlink adapter is used to publish the assets. Assets are grouped by their module name and the module name is converted into dash-case to follow the standard asset naming conventions.

You can change this publish path by using the following configuration:

<?php

return array(
	'rdn_asset' => array(
		'target_path' => 'public/modules-foo',
	),
);

Asset cleanup

You can remove assets that no longer exist by using the --prune option:

$ vendor/bin/console asset:publish --prune
