WPACK.IO Enqueue API

This is the PHP companion of @wpackio/scripts.

It gives you all the APIs you will need to properly consume assets generated from @wpackio/scripts from your WordPress plugins or themes.

Detailed Documentation

This README only covers the very basics and a quick start guide, without explaining the overall usage.

Please visit our official documentation site for detailed instruction.

Installation

Using Composer

We recommend using composer for using this library.

composer require wpackio/enqueue

Then in your plugin main file or functions.php file of your theme, load composer auto-loader.

<?php

// Require the composer autoload for getting conflict-free access to enqueue
require_once __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

// Instantiate
$enqueue = new \WPackio\Enqueue( 'appName', 'outputPath', '1.0.0', 'plugin', __FILE__ );

Manual

If you do not wish to use composer, then download the file Enqueue.php.

Remove the namespace line namespace WPackio; and rename the classname from Enqueue to something less generic, like MyPluginEnqueue. This ensures conflict-free loading.

Then require the file in your plugin entry-point or functions.php file of your theme.

<?php

// Require the file yourself
require_once __DIR__ . '/inc/MyPluginEnqueue.php';

// Instantiate
$enqueue = new MyPluginEnqueue( 'appName', 'outputPath', '1.0.0', 'plugin', __FILE__ );

Getting Started

Which ever way, you choose to install, you have to make sure to instantiate the class early during the entry-point of your plugin or theme.

This ensures that we hava necessary javascript in our website frontend and adminend to make webpack code-splitting and dynamic import work.

A common pattern may look like this.

<?php
// Assuming this is the main plugin file.

// Require the composer autoload for getting conflict-free access to enqueue
require_once __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

// Do stuff through this plugin
class MyPluginInit {
	/**
	 * @var \WPackio\Enqueue
	 */
	public $enqueue;

	public function __construct() {
		// It is important that we init the Enqueue class right at the plugin/theme load time
		$this->enqueue = new \WPackio\Enqueue( 'wpackplugin', 'dist', '1.0.0', 'plugin', __FILE__ );
		// Enqueue a few of our entry points
		add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', [ $this, 'plugin_enqueue' ] );
	}


	public function plugin_enqueue() {
		$this->enqueue->enqueue( 'app', 'main', [] );
		$this->enqueue->enqueue( 'app', 'mobile', [] );
		$this->enqueue->enqueue( 'foo', 'main', [] );
	}
}


// Init
new MyPluginInit();
