About bootstrap in Moodle
|
|
-------------------------
|
|
If you want to make changes to the .css generated from these .less files then you
|
|
need to use a LESS Compiler. Details on specific compilers and how to install them
|
|
can be found at http://docs.moodle.org/dev/LESS
|
|
|
|
At present, recess is the official tool for developers to compile LESS in to CSS, as
|
|
other tools give different results in the generated CSS.
|
|
|
|
Once recess has been installed you can compile and compress the LESS in to CSS using
|
|
the following commands from the "theme/bootstrapbase/less" directory:
|
|
|
|
For the main Moodle styles:
|
|
|
|
recess --compile --compress moodle.less > ../style/moodle.css
|
|
|
|
And for the subset of styles of interest to the TinyMCE editor:
|
|
|
|
recess --compile --compress editor.less > ../style/editor.css
|
|
|
|
You can add --watch to make sure it updates every time you make a change.
|
|
|
|
If the compilation is failing and you're not getting any useful error message, try using lessc instead i.e.:
|
|
|
|
lessc moodle.less
|
|
|
|
This is the same tool that's getting called by recess, but the errors seems better if you go direct.
