Twitter Bootstrap Extension for Yii 2
This is the Twitter Bootstrap extension for Yii framework 2.0. It encapsulates Bootstrap 3 components and plugins in terms of Yii widgets, and thus makes using Bootstrap components/plugins in Yii applications extremely easy.
For license information check the LICENSE-file.
Documentation is at docs/guide/README.md.
Installation ¶
The preferred way to install this extension is through composer.
Either run
php composer.phar require --prefer-dist yiisoft/yii2-bootstrap
or add
"yiisoft/yii2-bootstrap": "~2.0.0"
to the require section of your composer.json file.
Usage ¶
For example, the following single line of code in a view file would render a Bootstrap Progress plugin:
<?= yii\bootstrap\Progress::widget(['percent' => 60, 'label' => 'test']) ?>
I think it is not worth doing these kind of extensions that forcing use any particular version of bootstrap/other visuals. I don't like it since it is another abstract layer to get familiar with, while basically one could easily write normally using examples from original documentation. Another pitfall is that upgrading bootstrap to a newer version isn't that simple, spent couple of hours to get it done.
