Where can I add assets in symfony 5?

I'm using symfony 5 and I have no idea where can I pu my css, js, images files.

I read many posts about it but none helped me...

I tried:

  • composer require symfony/asset
  • symfony console assets:install

Here is the way i am using asset function in my twig files:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="{{ asset('css/base.css') }}">

And yes I have a file at public/css/base.css... But when I inspect the result page, my line is replaced by:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/css/base.css">

Did someone have any idea ?

Best regards,

symfony assets

If you're NOT using webpack (or webpack encore), your assets should be in your public folder which is the root of your public project. For example, if you have a file called style.css in public/css/style.css, you can access it in your browser with the url (assuming you use a local server started in the public dir) http://localhost:8000/css/style.css.

The Symfony asset component goal is to guess if your project is in a subdirectory and therefore to resolve the correct path. In order to use it in a Twig template with the previous imaginary file :

<link rel="stylesheet" href="{{ asset('css/style.css') }}">

The asset function will be able to produce the right path for your file.

If you're using webpack, the setup is a bit harder so if you don't I won't explain it here.
