#Bootunstrap
Bootstrap based project that keeps Bootstrap as a separate submodule.
Basically, this allows you to modify the local versions of variables.less, bootstrap.less and responsive.less (or even override other bootstrap .less files) while keeping the original bootstrap repository isolated and easily updateable (without crazy merges and such).
Once you make changes to your own variables.less file, simply run $ ./build.sh bootstrap
If there's an update to bootstrap, run $ ./build.sh update and re-build $ ./build.sh bootstrap
Your changes remain intact, as long as no major architectural changes have happened in bootstrap.
You'll need to have Git and NodeJS installed along with the following Node Packages:
Recess - A simple and attractive code quality tool for CSS built on top of LESS
UglifyJS - JavaScript parser / mangler / compressor / beautifier library for NodeJS
ShellJS - Portable Unix shell commands for Node.js
$ sudo npm install recess uglify-js shelljs -g
*The build script that currently does all the build magic is written as a shell script so it may only work in *NIX sytems (should work with cygwin but haven't fully tested this.)
You'll want to make sure your NODE_PATH environment variable is set up
$ echo 'export NODE_PATH="'$(npm root -g)'"' >> ~/.bashrc && . ~/.bashrc
In my case, I use ~/.profile so I actually use...
$ echo 'export NODE_PATH="'$(npm root -g)'"' >> ~/.profile && . ~/.profile
Checkout the Bootunstrap project and build
$ git clone https://github.com/inkidotcom/bootunstrap.git bootunstrap
$ cd bootunstrap
$ git submodule update --init
$ ./build.sh bootstrap
open index.html in your browser
You can run the build script without any options and you will be presented with the currently available options clean, bootstrap, update or quit
$ ./build.sh
Or, you can run a command directly by passing it as an argument
$ ./build.sh bootstrap
clean : removes local Bootstrap files (css/bootstrap, img/bootstrap, js/bootstrap)
$ ./build.sh clean
bootstrap : compiles Bootstrap css and js and copies over Bootstrap img assets
$ ./build.sh bootstrap
update : updates Bootstrap to master or branch as specified by second parameter
$ ./build.sh update
$ ./build.sh update 2.2.2-wip
