Hi team,
Last year Twitter
announced the new version of Bootstrap. Wok currently
uses a customized version of Bootstrap 3 Sass / SCSS
files and looking at the Alpha code it seems that
porting Wok to the new version won’t be difficult:
http://v4-alpha.getbootstrap.com/migration/
Samuel,
Thanks for the RFC !!!
For my education, is this official final bootstrap 4
version or is it still kind of non stable version (alpha
sounds like that to me) ? If so when will be the
official bootstrap 4 ?
Yes, it is an Alpha version and they are
still working and providing support for Bootstrap 3.
They don’t post a roadmap but judging by Bootstrap 3
release log, they took almost a year to move from RC2 to
the first stable release, however, their community is
bigger now and I don’t think they discarded everything
from the old code in this new version so it may take
less time until we have a public stable release. This is
just a study for future Wok releases.
-Browser Support:
Ok!
-SCSS environment:
Ok!
-Dropped
glyphicons: Ok! We already use Font-Awesome
- Non-responsive
usage of Bootstrap is no longer supported: Ok!
I recognize some
classes from this document and I think that a minor
drawback would be with the Media Queries that were
already implemented throughout the application and
some changes with the classes names. Ginger uses a lot
of “panel-“ classes that were replaced by “cards”, the
“btn-default” button was renamed to “btn-secondary”
and etc.
The major issue is
with jQuery Bootgrid plugin. It seems that they’re not
planning to port to Bootstrap 4 until it gets stable.
I think we should port our jQuery Bootgrid code to
Datatables.net, since it has a vast documentation and
it already supports Bootstrap 4:
https://datatables.net/examples/styling/bootstrap4.html
Any comments?
This will
be major concerns as I feel lot of work if we have to do
this.
When you say "It seems that they’re not planning to port
to Bootstrap 4 until it gets stable"? Do you mean until
bootstrap 4 not stabilized bootgrid team will not port
or bootgrid itself have stabilization issues and they
would not port until they stabilize bootgrid ?
I’ve meant until Bootgrid is more stable
and Bootstrap 4 final is released. They (Bootgrid team)
don’t have any roadmap on their project, I’ve searched
the Github page and found nothing. I’ll try to reach the
author to get a confirmation but the main reason why I
suggested Datatables.net is due documentation and
support. Datatables code is under MIT and they have a
paid and free support forums.
I may have to install Bootstrap 4 alpha and
jQuery Bootgrid current version to test compatibility
but we already applied our styles over Bootgrid /
Bootstrap tables and they work fine so we don’t have to
discard them if Bootstrap 4 final is released and
Bootgrid isn’t updated, as long as the JS keeps working
without any error. With Sass it is really easy to
“namespace” some classes and keep the old Bootstrap
table classes with the new ones if necessary.
I did some digging and so far the only
incompatible items I’ve seen are the Sort / Unsort icons
and the pagination links (prev, next, first, last and
the numbers). Within our Wok customization we already
replaced the sort icons with FontAwesome and I’m sure it
is not difficult to replace the pagination links if we
have to.
If we have an answer that bootgrid team will wait till
bootstrap 4 get stabilized then I would not hurry in
porting our jQuery Bootgrid code to Datatables.net,
since it will involve huge effort in porting and at the
same time in testing.
So in my opinion, readiness is good idea but at the
same time we have to make sure we are not spending
efforts in porting any of the existing code unless we
know that there will be no support at all !!!
We have to take conscious decision !!!
Samuel
