#Meteor Compatibility nemo64:bootstrap does not work with Meteor 1.2+. huttonr/bootstrap3 is a another similar package that works also with 1.2.

Bootstrap for Meteor

This package integrates bootstrap into meteor and lets you configure what parts you need.

How to install

  1. execute meteor add nemo64:bootstrap less
  2. create an empty custom.bootstrap.json file somewhere in your project. (/client/lib/custom.bootstrap.json for example)
  3. start meteor and then edit the file you just created (see custom.bootstrap.json).
  4. (optional) edit custom.bootstrap.import.less which now appeared next to the json file

custom.bootstrap.json

This file is to configure which bootstrap parts you need in your project. Set those you like to true! If the file is empty, it will be filled for with the following content:

Upgrading

After upgrading using meteor update, you may get an error stating:

While building the application:
   client/lib/custom.bootstrap.less:1629:18: Less compiler error: ...

This is due to the upstream Bootstrap library introducing LESS variables that your project is not aware of. The quickest fix is to execute the following script from within your project:

curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Nemo64/meteor-bootstrap/master/upgrade/upgrade-3.3.4-3.3.5.sh | /bin/bash

Alternately, you can manually apply this patch to custom.bootstrap.less:

Contribution

Origin

This package is based on and inspired by the bootstrap3-less package. I created a new repository because it takes a completely different approach now which is also incompatible.
