Laravel 5.1 Not working

[sirsquall]

Could you show me the code ? And the html source for the ouptut ?

[jrean]

Yes of course, thank you for your quick answer.

So first, I required the composer package.

"devfactory/minify": "1.0.*"
// composer update (on local)

Outputs:

- Installing natxet/cssmin (3.0.3)
    Loading from cache

  - Installing tedivm/jshrink (v1.0.1)
    Loading from cache

  - Installing devfactory/minify (1.0.1)
    Loading from cache

Then I edited config/app.php

// Service Provider
        Devfactory\Minify\MinifyServiceProvider::class,

// Alias
'Minify' => Devfactory\Minify\Facades\MinifyFacade::class,

Then I published the config file:
`php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Devfactory\Minify\MinifyServiceProvider"

Outputs:

Copied File [/vendor/devfactory/minify/src/config/config.php] To [/config/minify.config.php]
Publishing Complete!

Then I updated the config/minify.config.php

// I want to test it on my local env
    'ignore_environments' => array(
        /* 'local', */
    ),

// Perfect to me
    'css_build_path' => '/css/builds/',

// Perfect to me
    'js_build_path' => '/js/builds/',

// My conf
    'base_url' => env('APP_URL')

Then I created both '/css/builds' and '/js/builds' folders.

Then I tried my first attempt. I also have on my layout master.blade.php a main.css file.
So I replaced the call by {!! Minify::stylesheet('/css/main.css') !!}

In my page source code I have the following:
<link href="/css/builds/d30e521c267df109986130e9fc6cd58d1435137984.css" rel="stylesheet">

When I open the file I can see the minified CSS but my browser (Chrome Version 43.0.2357.124 (64-bit) Mac) doesn't load them. When I try to inspect elements the minified are not used.

So I tried to clear all my caches.

php artisan view:clear
php artisan cache:clear

But unfortunately it doesn't change anything.

I hope I gave enough details :)

Did I do something wrong or missed something?

Thank you :)

UPDATE:

I can see the some minified CSS rules within the inspector tool but the majority are missing! This is weird.

I have:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="//maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.4/css/bootstrap.min.css">
<link href="/css/builds/d30e521c267df109986130e9fc6cd58d1435137984.css" rel="stylesheet">

And the Minified CSS file is the following:

Hi,

I never saw the service provider and the alias with you syntax:

// Service Provider
Devfactory\Minify\MinifyServiceProvider::class,

// Alias
'Minify' => Devfactory\Minify\Facades\MinifyFacade::class,

Could you try to use :

// Service Provider
'Devfactory\Minify\MinifyServiceProvider',

// Alias
'Minify'   => 'Devfactory\Minify\Facades\MinifyFacade',

Otherwise I didn't know why, everything look like fine.

[jrean]

I will try.
This syntax is shipped with Laravel 5.
I will try and keep you posted.

Hi I'm using 5.1 too where should I make the css/builds folder on my public folder?

[sirsquall]

Yes you have to create the forlder in the public folder

[sirsquall]

So know if the build directory don't exists, minify will try to create the build directory, is in the version 1.0.2
