1.1 Software requirements for custom styling
To change the theme colors (i.e. the styling) of your Digizuite™ Media Manager (MM), some requirements need to be met.
The requirements are as follows:
- NodeJS LTS v6.9 or higher (https://nodejs.org/en/download/)
- Yarn v0.19 or higher (https://yarnpkg.com/en/docs/install)
Once these have been installed, you should be able to start building your new custom CSS files.
1.2 Enabling live editing
...
To enable editing for your MM, you have to live up to the following requirements
- The software requirements above must be in place
- The source files must have the postfix "include source" and be a running web site
When these things are in place, access your MM's site files and locate web.config.
...
(i.e. live reload) (optional)
Some prefer to see their changes to the color variables appear in an MM when editing the colors.
Please be advised. that this is not strictly necessary, and that you can entirely skip this step, if you want to do it manually instead. Doing ti manually, will take 1 minute longer every time you have to build → Find the CSS → Upload the MM.
By following the following steps, you enable a local MM on your computer, to automatically receive the colors you choose for your MM.
- First off, you need to have a MM with the "include source" postfix in an unzipped state.
- Have a DC installed and running on your local computer
- Host the "include source" from your computer, and hook it up to your DC.
- Edit the MM's web.config
