Lumen Theme

Build Status Latest Stable Version License

Add theming support to your Lumen 5.* projects.

For Laravel support, go to Laravel Theme.

Features

  • Custom theme locations
  • Support for theme inheritence with theme fallback
  • Theme assets loading
  • Artisan console commands

Install

Require it via terminal like so:

$ composer require lukeed/lumen-theme

Or add the package to your composer file:

"lukeed/lumen-theme": "1.*"

Add a new service provider and optional facade to your bootstrap/app.php file:

// Service provider
$app->register(Lukeed\Theme\ThemeServiceProvider::class);

// Facade
class_alias(Lukeed\Theme\Facade\Theme::class, 'Theme');

Configuration

theme.path

Type: string

Default: public/themes

The path to the themes directory, where all themes should live.

To change this value, you may either create a custom config/theme.php file and load it inside bootstrap/app.php or you may set the value directly via the config() helper anywhere inside your application.

// bootstrap/app.php
config(['theme.path' => realpath(base_path('public/custom/path/themes'))]);

OR

// config/theme.php
return [
    'path' => realpath(base_path('public/custom/path/themes'))])
];

// bootstrap/app.php
$app->configure('theme');

Creating a Theme

Every theme directory must contain a views folder and a theme.json file, which contains descriptive information about the theme.

{
    "name": "Theme name",
    "author": "Author Name",
    "description": "Default theme description",
    "version": "1.0",
    "directory": "theme-folder",
    "parent": null
}

The name, author and directory fields are required.

The directory value must match the name of the theme directory; eg: public/themes/theme-folder.

If your theme is meant to extend or inherit another theme's views, include the directory name "parent theme" as the parent value; eg: parent-folder.

View Hierarchy

Given the example:

view('home');

The currently active theme will be scanned for a home.blade.php.

If there is a parent attached to the theme, its directory will be scanned next.

Lastly, Lumen's view.paths config value will searched. By default, this is resources/views.

Usage

The theme.path directory will be scanned for all available themes.

If only one theme is found, it will automatically be selected as the active theme. To manually select a different theme, you may use the set method which accepts a directory value.

Theme::set('theme-folder');

Then you call views like you usually do in laravel:

view('home', []);

This will firstly check if there is a home.blade.php in current theme directory. If none is found then it checks parent theme, and finally falls back to default laravel views location.

You can also inject theme instance using ThemeInterface.

use lukeed\Theme\Contracts\ThemeInterface;

private $theme;

public function __construct(ThemeInterface $theme)
{
    $this->theme = $theme
}

Available methods

Here's the list of methods you can access:

// Activate/set theme
Theme::set('theme-namespace');

// Get all available themes as an array
Theme::all();

// Get currently active
Theme::get();

// Get theme by namespace
Theme::get('specific-namespace');

// Override default theme path
Theme::setDefaultThemePath('new/path/to/themes');

// Check if theme exists
Theme::has('theme-namespace');

// Render theme path URL
theme_url('assets/style.css');

Artisan commands

Get a table of all found themes:

$ php artisan theme:list

+------------------+-------------+------------+
| Name             | Author      | Namespace  |
+------------------+-------------+------------+
| Bootstrap theme  | Karlo Mikus | bootstrap  |
| Default theme    | Test Author | default    |
| Foundation theme | Lorem Ipsum | foundation |
| Test theme       | Dolor Sitha | test       |
+------------------+-------------+------------+

Create a theme directory with config file:

$ php artisan theme:make

 Template name:
 > Theme name

 Template author:
 > Firstn Lastn

Theme created succesfully!
