I am creating a plugin in OctoberCMS and i need to use less for some front-end & back-end use cases. The problem is that i have no idea how to import less files files in my plugin.
As i understand it, normally something like this would be done:
<link href="{{ ['assets/less/theme.less']|theme }}" rel="stylesheet">
But for me this is not working. I would like to know what i'm doing wrong, or how it should be done. In an attempt to do this, the furthest i got was the following:
<link href="{{ ['path/to/plugin/asset.less']|app}}" rel="stylesheet">
Does anyone here know how i can use less in a plugin?
EDIT: i have done some more digging and found that if i register the less bundles in my plugin like so:
CombineAssets::registerCallback(function($combiner) {
$combiner->registerBundle('~/path/to/style.less');
});
and the compile it using the command line like so:
php artisan october:util compile less
and then import the css in the html, then it works.
If anyone knows how to do this realtime it would be awesome to hear it.
