Getting Started
Every journey starts somewhere.
Requirements
Adobe ColdFusion 2018+ or Lucee 5+
ColdBox 6+
Installation
Install CommandBox.
Within the root of your project, run:
box install cbwire@3
If you want the latest bleeding edge, run:
box install cbwire@be
Layout Setup
CBWIRE requires some lightweight CSS and JavaScript to be added to your ColdBox layout.
You can have CBWIRE do this for you by enabling the autoInjectAssets Configuration property in your config/ColdBox.cfc file.
// config/ColdBox.cfc
moduleSettings = {
"cbwire" : {
"autoInjectAssets": true
}
};
You can also manually add the references by calling wireStyles() and wireScripts() in your layout file.
<!--- ./layouts/Main.cfm --->
<cfoutput>
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<title>My Page</title>
<!--- CBWIRE CSS --->
#wireStyles()#
</head>
<body>
<!--- CBWIRE JS --->
#wireScripts()#
</body>
</html>
</cfoutput>
CBWIRE will not work if you do not add the wireStyles() and wireScripts() references to your layout or enable autoInjectAssets.
