Introduction

This library packages YUI for fanstatic. It is aware of YUI’s structure and different modes (normal, minified, debug).

This requires integration between your web framework and fanstatic, and making sure that the original resources (shipped in the resources directory in js.yui) are published to some URL.

js.yui basic tests

Here are some basic tests for js.yui.

Let’s check the YUI structure by picking out a resource in it:

>>> import js.yui
>>> from fanstatic import init_needed
>>> needed = init_needed(base_url='http://localhost')
>>> needed.need(js.yui.fonts)
>>> print needed.render()
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://localhost/fanstatic/yui/fonts/fonts.css" />

Let’s try a resource that has a dependency on fonts, namely grids:

>>> needed = init_needed(base_url='http://localhost')
>>> needed.need(js.yui.grids)
>>> print needed.render()
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://localhost/fanstatic/yui/fonts/fonts.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://localhost/fanstatic/yui/grids/grids.css" />

Let’s need two resources at the same time:

>>> needed = init_needed(base_url='http://localhost')
>>> needed.need(js.yui.grids)
>>> needed.need(js.yui.reset)
>>> print needed.render()
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://localhost/fanstatic/yui/fonts/fonts.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://localhost/fanstatic/yui/reset/reset.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://localhost/fanstatic/yui/grids/grids.css" />

Let’s get the same, minified:

>>> needed = init_needed(base_url='http://localhost', minified=True)
>>> needed.need(js.yui.grids)
>>> needed.need(js.yui.reset)
>>> print needed.render()
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://localhost/fanstatic/yui/fonts/fonts-min.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://localhost/fanstatic/yui/reset/reset-min.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://localhost/fanstatic/yui/grids/grids-min.css" />

Now let’s try to see consolidation: we include grids and reset at the same time. Since this time we enable rolling up, we expect to see the rollup reset-fonts-grids:

>>> needed = init_needed(
...     base_url='http://localhost', rollup=True)
>>> needed.need(js.yui.grids)
>>> needed.need(js.yui.reset)
>>> print needed.render()
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://localhost/fanstatic/yui/reset-fonts-grids/reset-fonts-grids.css" />

Requesting minification has no effect on rollups, as the original rollup is already minified:

>>> needed = init_needed(
...     base_url='http://localhost', rollup=True, minified=True)
>>> needed.need(js.yui.grids)
>>> needed.need(js.yui.reset)
>>> print needed.render()
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://localhost/fanstatic/yui/reset-fonts-grids/reset-fonts-grids.css" />
