Set of front-end tools for Magento 2, based on Gulp.js
If you want to know more about this project, let's join Magento Community Engineering Slack and ask questions on #magefront channel.
- Unix-like OS (please, do not ask about Windows support)
- Node.js LTS version. We recommend to use avn to automate version switching. Required configuration is already added to repository as
.node-version
file. - (optional) Gulp CLI installed globally -
yarn global add gulp-cli
ornpm install -g gulp-cli
- Magento 2 project with SASS based theme for example SASS version of "Blank" or Alpaca Theme
- Run
composer require snowdog/frontools
- Go to package directory
cd vendor/snowdog/frontools
- Run
yarn
ornpm install
- Decide where you want to keep your config files.
You can store them in Frontools
config
directory or indev/tools/frontools/config
. There is asetup
task to copy all sample config files from theconfig
todev/tools/frontools/config
and create a convenient symlinktools
in the project root. If you want to keep config files inside frontoolsconfig
dir, you have to handle this manually. - Define your themes in
themes.json
.
Check config/themes.json.sample
to get samples.
src
- full path to themedest
- full path topub/static/[theme_area]/[theme_vendor]/[theme_name]
locale

) PostCSS plugins config. Have to be an array.modules
- list of modules witch you want to map inside your themeignore
- array of ignore patterns
Check config/watcher.json.sample
to get samples.
usePolling
- set this totrue
to successfully watch files over a network (i.e. Docker or Vagrant) or when your watcher dosen't work well. Warning, enabling this option may lead to high CPU utilization! chokidar docs
You can choose Sass compiler between the default, but already deprecated, node-sass
or a newer and faster dart-sass
.
Since the Dart Sass does not have the same set of features as Node Sass, for now we will keep the older version as default.
You will find sample config files for theses plugins in vendor/snowdog/frontools/config
directory.
- Create browserSync configuration
- Create eslint configuration
- Create sass-lint configuration
- Create stylelint configuration
- Create svg-sprite configuration
Please use yarn [taskName]
or npm run [taskName]
to avoid necessity of installing gulp-cli
globally.
