Topic: Integrate MDBootstrap into Laravel

Hennikoe free asked 5 years ago

Hello, I've been reading some videos and blog entries about the implementation of MDBootstrap in Laravel 5.7.

I also looked at the documentation of Laravel but I didn't find it very explanatory for newbies.

So please, could you write me and others who have the question a text and publish sample code on how the best way to import the files from MDBootstrap jQuery Pro into Laravel 5.7 is?

There is an easy way to import MDBootstrap in to Laravel, without using additional vendors or and CLI whatsoever.

Simply copy the mdb.min.js and mdb.min.js.map to your public/js folder.Next copy the mdb css files (there should be around 8 of them) to your public/css folder.

Now in the area of your project (I use a head blade include file for this), add the following CSS links:

   <!-- import Font Awesome -->
   <link
href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/font-awesome/5.15.1/css/all.min.css"
rel="stylesheet">

   <!-- import Material Icons from Google Fonts -->
   <link rel="stylesheet" href="//fonts.googleapis.com/icon?family=Material+Icons">

   <!-- import MDB Pro -->
   <link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/mdb.min.css" />

...then just before your closing BODY tag (I use a "foot" blade include), add the following code...

 <!-- import the MDB javascript file https://mdbootstrap.com/ -->    
<script
    type="text/javascript"
    src="{{ asset('js/mdb.min.js') }}">
</script>

...just remember to update the files when new releases occur.

Currently, we don't support Laravel. It's a common question so I hope, one day we'll create a tutorial that would help you to integrate MDB with Laravel

Hennikoe free commented 5 years ago

But I bought MDBootstrap ONLY because I wanted to use it with Laravel. Isn't there a way to include MDBootstrap in laravel?

Bartłomiej Malanowski staff commented 5 years ago

Is there a way, but we've never tried to do that, so we never wrote a tutorial that would help you to do that. However, a lot of customers asks for this so I think I have no choice and I have to write a guide. Could you please tell us what have you tried so far? What exactly are you trying to achieve? Do you just want to import CSS/JS files or use Laravel Mix?

Hennikoe free commented 5 years ago

I just want to import css and js files into laravel 5.7 so I can use the complete MDBootstrap framework to design my website and admin panel properly. I tried in laravel to put the files in the public folder and then via. {{asset:. path }} to grab it.

Please check this guide: https://www.cloudways.com/blog/laravel-bootstrap-template-integration/

Did you have the time during the last 10 month to just write that guide? I am not getting MBP to work properly with Laravel6. Seems to be an issue with JavaScript.
