Getting Started¶

Install the package into your python environment:

$ /path/to/pyvenv/bin/pip install djed.static

Include it in your Pyramid application:

config.include('djed.static')

Set-up the path to the bower_components directory in your .ini file:

[app:main]
# ... other settings ...
djed.static.components_path = myapp:static/bower_components

Or use the following statement to add the bower_components directory:

config.add_bower_components('myapp:static/bower_components')

Now, you can use all installed bower packages. To include the desired components, call the following function in a HTML template or somewhere else in your code:

request.include('bootstrap')

This adds the following tags to the end of the HTML <head> section:

<script type="text/javascript" src="/bowerstatic/components/jquery/2.1.4/dist/jquery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/bowerstatic/components/bootstrap/3.3.5/dist/js/bootstrap.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/bowerstatic/components/bootstrap/3.3.5/dist/css/bootstrap.css">

As you can see, all required dependencies are automatically resolved and also included in your HTML document.
