Closes#268. Not going to bother with a preview SVG or anything fancy for now – we can think about that as part of #746. Right now it's just good to finally get this functionality in!
Also need to think about apple-touch-icon, msTile stuff, and social sharing image. Not sure if this is all too much for core, but it's definitely too much for the current Appearance page layout. Again, something to think about as part of #746.
Code is a bit rough around the edges, but figured there's not much point in using the command bus properly since #870.
- Introduce the concept of "required permissions" - basically a permission dependency tree. In order for a group to be granted one permission, they must also have another.
- Improve redraw performance by not building dropdown menu contents until dropdown is opened
ref #904
- Get rid of Bootstrap (except we still rely on some JS)
- Use BEM class names
- Rework variables/theme config
- Fix various bugs, including some on mobile
The CSS is still not ideal – it needs to be cleaned up some more. But
that can be a focus for after beta.
- Extract shared Ember components into a “flarum-common” ember-cli
addon. This can be used by both the forum + admin Ember apps, keeping
things DRY
- Move LESS styles into their own top-level directory and do a similar
thing (extract common styles)
- Add LESS/JS compilation and versioning to PHP (AssetManager)
- Set up admin entry point
(Theoretical) upgrade instructions:
- Delete everything in [app_root]/public
- Set up tooling in forum/admin Ember apps (npm install/update, bower
install/update) and then build them (ember build)
- php artisan vendor:publish
- Upgrade flarum/flarum repo (slight change in a config file)
- If you need to trigger a LESS/JS recompile, delete the .css/.js files
in [app_root]/public/flarum. I set up LiveReload to do this for me when
I change files in less/ or ember/
Todo:
- Start writing admin app!
- Remove bootstrap/font-awesome from repo and instead depend on their
composer packages? Maybe? (Bower is not an option here)
