concrete5 5.7.0 Developer Repository

This is the developer repository for the 5.7 version of concrete5. In addition to user facing improvements (documented on concrete5.org), 5.7.0 is much different under the hood than 5.6 and earlier. In this repository we can make sure that 5.7 gets the attention it deserves, and anyone who wants to contribute to active 5.7 development can do so.

Important

This is a developer preview branch. This is intended for Add-On developers and core hackers. This is not intended for production sites of any kind.

Installation

1. Make sure your development environment enables PHP short tags.

2. Clone this repository.

3. Use Composer to install the third party dependencies

   If composer is installed globally:

    cd web/concrete
    composer install
   

   If composer is downloaded as a .phar:

    cd web/concrete
    php /path/to/composer.phar install
   

   This should install everything necessary into the vendor/ directory in the concrete directory.

4. Use npm to install grunt to the build directory and install the command line interface

    cd build
    npm install grunt grunt-contrib-concat grunt-contrib-uglify grunt-contrib-cssmin grunt-contrib-less grunt-contrib-watch
    npm install -g grunt-cli
   

5. Build concrete5 sources with grunt

    cd build
    grunt release
