Development

Upstream Converter

Keeping bootstrap-sass in sync with upstream changes from Bootstrap used to be an error prone and time consuming manual process. With Bootstrap 3 we have introduced a converter that automates this.

Upstream changes to the Bootstrap project can now be pulled in using the convert rake task.

Here's an example run that would pull down the 3.0.0-wip branch from the main twbs/bootstrap repo:

% bundle exec rake 'convert[3.0.0-wip]'

The latest converter script is located here and does the following:

  • Converts upstream bootstrap LESS files to its matching SCSS file.
  • Copies all upstream JavaScript into vendor/assets/javascripts/bootstrap
  • Generates a javascript manifest at vendor/assets/javascripts/bootstrap.js
  • Copies all upstream font files into vendor/assets/fonts

This LESS to SCSS conversion is pretty good, but not perfect. So manual fixes to the resulting SCSS will be necessary for now. Please submit GitHub issues tagged with conversion to help track current shortcomings of the conversion process.
