## quickassets

QuickAssets is a simple script in development with the goal of making it easier to generate cache-bustable URLs in PHP.

The goal is to create a simple framework for defining a server (or multiple servers) and automatically setting cache-friendly URLs. You should be handling the actual caching yourself, either with server-side Apache/Nginx settings or with a cache engine like Varnish (or both).

**NOTE:** If you're a legacy user of QuickAssets, [you'll want to read this](https://github.com/vanpattenmedia/quickassets/wiki/Upgrading-to-QuickAssets-1.0).

### Using QuickAssets

Getting started with QuickAssets is easy. First, add QuickAssets to your composer.json file:

```json
{
"require": {
"vanpattenmedia/quickassets": "dev-master"
}
}
```

Then, install QuickAssets with `composer install`.

In your project's code, after requiring the Composer autoloader, use QuickAssets and instantiate it:

```php
use VanPattenMedia\QuickAssets\QuickAsset;

$a = new QuickAsset();
```

Next, set up an asset type:

```php
$a->addAssetType('css', array(
'assetPath' => 'assets/stylesheets',
'rootPath' => __DIR__ . '../../public/assets/stylesheets',
));
```

Bind your asset type to a new host:

```php
$a->addHost('/', array(
'assetTypes' => [ 'css' ],
));
```

Echo the result in your template file:

```php

```

And you'll get:

```php

```

[Consult the wiki](https://github.com/vanpattenmedia/quickassets/wiki) for more examples and to learn how to change the display of your cache busting string, as well as its contents.

### Twig Extension

Version 1.5 introduces an extension for Twig, the popular PHP template engine. This makes it easier to include your assets in Twig templates.

To get started, instantiate the `QuickAsset` object and add your configuration (abbreviated example):

```php
$quickAsset = new \VanPattenMedia\QuickAssets\QuickAsset();

$quickAsset->addAssetType( 'css', arr...
```

Once you're set up, add the extension and pass in your object:

```php
$twig->addExtension( new \VanPattenMedia\QuickAssets\TwigExtension( $quickAsset ) );
```

You can now access the QuickAssets URL function within Twig:

```twig
This is an image:
