Wiki outdated: new instructions for theming

[davosian]

In the current version (since 0.6?), the package.json file has a different structure. Hence the instructions on the wiki page https://github.com/topcoat/topcoat/wiki/Installation-and-Usage#theming-for-the-web-craftsman should change for step 3 from

Modify ./topcoat-X.X.X/package.json to point to your theme and run grunt
"theme": {
"YOUR_GITHUB_ACCOUNT/theme": "TAG_VERSION"
}
make sure you push a new tag when you make modifications

to:

Modify ./topcoat-X.X.X/package.json to point to your theme:
"topcoat-theme": "git://github.com/[YOUR_GITHUB_ACCOUNT]/theme.git#[TAG_VERSION]",

Then run "npm update" followed by "grunt". Make sure you push a new tag when you make modifications

👍 on it.

[GarthDB]

well, then I'll assign you to it.

[davosian]

I'd be glad to do it, but I cannot find the "edit page" button on the wiki. Guess I need access first.

[davosian]

Oh, sorry, I just realized that @kristoferjoseph is on it. Nice!

Whoever is on it...I'm glad I found this; was starting to get a little frustrated.

Thanks for bumping this issue. I have been refactoring the themeing workflow in order to satisfy the many asks we've gotten ( a lot from the Onsen UI team ). I was hoping to update the docs as soon as this work is done so as not to be immediately outdated again. Want to cut down I the things that frustrate users. So very sorry @ResentedHook it is only me and I have a full time job in top of topcoat work. I realize this isn't a good excuse, but I wanted you to know I hear you and appreciate your requests. Thank you again.
