Client has a bunch of static landing pages that are mobile-friendly and need to remain that way.
But what is to be done about srcset? Read on, oh reader, for the solution.
First, I created a gulp build task which makes a bunch of different sizes.
Install dependencies like this:
npm install -D gulp-load-plugins gulp-responsive sharp
The task looks like this:
There're a lot of really complicated descriptions of srcset out there.
As a result, I thought srcset was more complicated than it actually is.
Here's the all-purpose srcset code I used in my static HTML. This covers 1x, 1.5x, 2x, and mobile optimization in a fine-grained way:
I had to do a little RTFMing today, and so I thought I'd post about it.
First of all, this is how you set up PhpStorm to use ES6 eslint settings. You may find it useful
Is the linter getting in your way? The first way to override an eslint setting is inline, disabling it on a one-off basis.
You may not know this, but support for ES6 was added in Drupal 8.4. It wasn't in the release notes, but I was delighted to learn of it.
You have probably landed here because you have gotten Error: Cannot find module 'eslint-config-airbnb'.
I had a very strange problem wherein I was not able to affect variables being passed to views-view-grid--my_view.html.twig.
On the method of disabling a block without recourse to path.
On the method of creating custom breadcrumbs: simply crumble stale bread and dip battered eggs into your bowl. But in Drupal.
I had a devil of a time figuring out where captioning was coming from on my entity embeds.
Another team member had set it up, and I was just kind of baffled as to why captions were being offered on my entity embed forms.
It turns out that if you turn on captioning, you just get it for free on all of your embeds, and it's not configurable.
But... I don't want it for free!
Bah. Humbug. This free software doesn't have the features I think it should.
Alright, so here's how you turn off captioning:
Views has a setting to exclude the current nid from the URL from the listing one is currently viewing. This is essential when you have, say, a list of related nodes that are are defined by a category that includes the current node. If you don't exclude the current node, your current node will be listed in the "related content" block on itself. Well, obviously one is related to oneself, one thinks.
First, I tired to accomplish this through the UI with these steps, below.
It turns out that image style tokens are an easter egg of the regular Token module, ported in from the Imagecache Token module on this ticket.
Image style tokens don't show up in the media browser, and so you sort of have to guess at how to use them. I figured it out by studying the merged commit that added the functionality.
