org.civicrm.shoreditch (developmental)

The "Shoreditch" extension is a theme for CiviCRM based on a contemporary flat design and Bootstrap(S)CSS. It includes two major components:

  • "bootstrap.css" is a build of Bootstrap based on the standard Bootstrap style-guide. It can be used with other CiviCRM extensions which satisfy the Bootstrap style-guide.
  • "custom-civicrm.css" is an optional replacement for "civicrm.css". It uses the same visual conventions and SCSS metadata, but it applies to existing core screens.

This extension is under active development. Significant elements may change.

Using bootstrap.css

This extension provides the CSS for Bootstrap. Other extensions should output compliant HTML, e.g.

<div id="bootstrap-theme">
  ...
  <div class="panel panel-default">
    <div class="panel-heading">
      <h3 class="panel-title">Hello World</h3>
    </div>
    <div class="panel-body">
      This is the Hello World example.
    </div>
  </div>
  ...
</div>

Note the use of id="bootstrap-theme". To avoid conflicts with CMS UIs, the CSS rules are restricted to #bootstrap-theme.

Using custom-civicrm.css

This extension includes an optional file custom-civicrm.css which can replace the default civicrm.css. This uses the same CSS classes as traditional CiviCRM screens, but the look-and-feel matches the Bootstrap look-and-feel. It is implemented with the same SCSS variables and mixins. To use it, figure out the URL for the CSS file:

cv url -x shoreditch/css/custom-civicrm.css

And then put this URL in the setting customCSSURL, e.g.

cv api setting.create customCSSURL=$(cv url -x shoreditch/css/custom-civicrm.css --out=list)

Build

If you are doing development on this extension, then you may need to build new CSS files. This requires the toolchain for SCSS=>CSS compilation. Install NodeJS and then run:

npm install -g gulp
npm install

Once you have the tools, you can run gulp. This will monitor the SCSS files and automatically recompile whenever they change.

gulp
