Livewire Assets

For CBWIRE to work, your layout must include Livewire's CSS and JavaScript assets. CBWIRE 4 automatically adds these assets to your layout.

<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
	<!-- Livewire Styles -->
	<style >[wire\:loading][wire\:loading], [wire\:loading\.delay][wire\:loading\.delay], [wire\:loading\.inline-block][wire\:loading\.inline-block], [wire\:loading\.inline][wire\:loading\.inline], [wire\:loading\.block][wire\:loading\.block], [wire\:loading\.flex][wire\:loading\.flex], [wire\:loading\.table][wire\:loading\.table], [wire\:loading\.grid][wire\:loading\.grid], [wire\:loading\.inline-flex][wire\:loading\.inline-flex] {display: none;}[wire\:loading\.delay\.none][wire\:loading\.delay\.none], [wire\:loading\.delay\.shortest][wire\:loading\.delay\.shortest], [wire\:loading\.delay\.shorter][wire\:loading\.delay\.shorter], [wire\:loading\.delay\.short][wire\:loading\.delay\.short], [wire\:loading\.delay\.default][wire\:loading\.delay\.default], [wire\:loading\.delay\.long][wire\:loading\.delay\.long], [wire\:loading\.delay\.longer][wire\:loading\.delay\.longer], [wire\:loading\.delay\.longest][wire\:loading\.delay\.longest] {display: none;}[wire\:offline][wire\:offline] {display: none;}[wire\:dirty]:not(textarea):not(input):not(select) {display: none;}:root {--livewire-progress-bar-color: #2299dd;}[x-cloak] {display: none !important;}</style>
</head>
<body>
	<!-- Livewire SCRIPTS -->
	<script src="/modules/cbwire/includes/js/livewire.js?id=239a5c52" data-csrf="IwMh5yVu4bmvvh3krQjW50jdNHLPBQ6Ln7QLWEyc" data-update-uri="/cbwire/update" data-navigate-once="true"></script>
</body>
</html>

Previous versions of CBWIRE required you to do this manually.

If you want to disable this functionality and manually include the CSS and JavaScript yourself, you can set the autoInjectAssets setting to false in your ColdBox.cfc.

// config/ColdBox.cfc
moduleSettings = {
    "cbwire" : {
        "autoInjectAssets": false
    }
};

Then, you can manually add the CSS and JavaScript using the wireStyles() and wireScripts() methods in your layout file.

<!--- ./layouts/Main.cfm --->
<cfoutput>
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
    <head>
        <!--- CBWIRE CSS --->
        #wireStyles()#
    </head>
    <body>
        <!--- CBWIRE JS --->
        #wireScripts()#
    </body>
</html>
</cfoutput>

Your template must include Livewire's CSS and JavaScript; otherwise, CBWIRE will not work. If you are trying to use CBWIRE and it's not working as expected, this is the first place to check.
