I get an Error Message with laravel 5, which I don't understand.
Next exception 'ErrorException' with message 'File build/css/all.css not
defined in asset manifest.
I haven't installed any asset pipeline or something. Just used elixir to compile, minify and version the scss-file to all.css
and included it into the master view with <link rel="stylesheet" href="{{ elixir("css/all.css") }}">
What is this 'asset manifest' and how to fix this error?`
The question is of course what you want to achieve.
If you simply put all.css
file into the public/css
directory and you want to display this file, you can use:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="{{ asset('css/all.css') }}" />
However if you plan to modify this file and you don't want to have caching issues, you can put this all.css
file again into public/css
then put into gulpfile.js
:
var elixir = require('laravel-elixir');
elixir(function(mix) {
mix.version('public/css/all.css');
});
Now you'll need to run:
gulp
in your terminal, and now you can use
<link rel="stylesheet" href="{{ elixir('css/all.css') }}" />
as you previously did in your HTML.
It will create public/build/
folder with rev-manifest.json
(this file is missing in your case).
I would recommend you to watch Managing assets Laracasts episode to understand it a bit better.
Same issue here!! I solve it by creating production version of css. I update gulefile.js as bellow,
elixir(function(mix) {
mix.sass('app.scss').version('css/app.css').browserify('app.js');
});
Then run following command which will create rev-manifest.json file in public/build directory.
gulp --production
Good luck!!
