Had at work the same « wtf » moment with coworker when i introduced this package /file

boot_ux.js / init_ux.js / boot_app.js ?

naming can be « improved » to dissociate with bootstrap framework indeed :)

This is still confusing to me too.

If others face the same issue, we could revisit this and consider a name change.

This is very "webpack-like"..

If we can find a way to do this with no BC / generating frustration, i'm all in to rename.... but i'd even think we could entirely remove it (and merge within app.js)

WDYT ?

I quite like the idea of moving it into app.js. If we were to do that, what about also renaming the app var to application, so it'd be more consistent with stimulus-components and the hotwired documentation

• https://www.stimulus-components.com/docs/stimulus-timeago
• https://stimulus.hotwired.dev/reference/controllers#registering-controllers-manually

that is

import { Application } from '@hotwired/stimulus'

const application = Application.start()

I think the recipe should include

application.debug=true;

or false, but either way, make it explicit.

One potential downside to embedding the code in app.js is that if someone were to create a command that installs stimulus components, it'd be easier to automate initializing it. That is

bin/console importmap:require-stimulus timeago
# same as 
bin/console importmap:require stimulus-timeago
cat assets/stimulus-bootstrap.js

would install it as well.

import { startStimulusApp } from '@symfony/stimulus-bundle';
import Timeago from 'stimulus-timeago'

const application = startStimulusApp();
application.debug=true;
application.register('timeago', Timeago);

Thank you for this issue.

Not something we can do for now, let's reopen the debate in 3.0
