Yii2 assets clear cache

Question

Everytime I update my css or js files in infoweb\menu\module\assets, I have to empty the backend\web\assets folder
is there a way to automatically clear the assets cache?

Answer 1

Add this in your view:

use vendor\myVendorName\myPackageName\assets\AppAsset;
AppAsset::register($this);

Add this in your config:

'components' => [
    'assetManager' => [
        'linkAssets' => true,
    ], 
]  

Empty assets folder, and refresh, done
