Introducing GetAsset for Craft CMS
Introduction
GetAsset was first launched in February 2019. It looks inside a folder for a file that was last modified and returns the value in Twig.
Requirements
- Craft 3.1 or above
Examples
Return the last modified file from a directory
Folder path /assets/css contains 3 files, with the following timestamps:
22 Apr 22:54 c.min.d6df804850.css
22 Apr 22:55 plugin.css
22 Apr 22:54 ie.min.8af08fe73b.cssIn Twig we pass an array of settings into GetAsset:
{% set settings =
{
path: '/assets/css/'
}
%}
{% set file = craft.getasset.config(settings) %}
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/assets/css/{{ file }}">This would output:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/assets/css/plugin.css">Return the last modified file from a directory that matches a regex pattern
Folder path /assets/css contains 4 files, with the following timestamps:
22 Apr 22:54 c.min.d6df804850.css
22 Apr 22:50 c.min.a8xd808007.css
22 Apr 22:55 p.min.d6df804850.css
22 Apr 22:54 ie.min.8af08fe73b.cssIn Twig we pass an array of settings into GetAsset. The settings array contains the path and regex pattern:
{% set settings =
{
path: '/assets/css/',
pattern: '/^(c).min.*\\S{10}.css$/'
}
%}
{% set file = craft.getasset.config(settings) %}
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/assets/css/{{ file }}">This example Twig code would output:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/assets/css/c.min.d6df804850.css">Configuration
