Basset Collections in a Provider for Laravel 4.1

<?php
/**

namespace Mysite\Providers;

use Illuminate\Support\ServiceProvider;

/**
 * Asset Collection Builder
 *
 * The purpose of this is to build collections of assets (CSS, JS, maybe even images)
 * that we will build, minify, and whatever else we need for use on the front-end.

class AssetCollectionProvider extends ServiceProvider
{
    public function register() { } //Gotta declare this function or it cries a lot.

    public function boot()
    {
        /**
         * Basset setup for the various sites.
         *
         * @Note: The problem we have here is how to work a different set for each site.
         *      Reference: http://raffworks.com/laravel-4-assets-basset-less-part-1/
         *
         *      Solution: Using Basset we create a private directory to store all our
         *          customizations for Bootstrap in.
         *
         *      We will do a collection for each company website.
         *
         *      Run the following in your builds:
         *          php artisan basset:build bootstrap_siteA
         *          php artisan basset:build bootstrap_siteB
         *          php artisan basset:build bootstrap_siteC
         *          php artisan basset:build bootstrap_siteD
         *
         * @Note2: We have to use \Basset instead of just Basset so that we can use the facades
         *       and be able to statically call the functions like this.
         */
        // Define the Basset collection
        \Basset::collection('bootstrap_siteA', function($collection)
        {
            // Collection definition.
            $collection->add('../private/assets/siteA/less/bootstrap-custom.less');
        })->apply('Less')->andApply('CssMin');

        \Basset::collection('bootstrap_siteB', function($collection)
        {
            // Collection definition.
            $collection->add('../private/assets/siteB/less/bootstrap-custom.less');
        })->apply('Less')->andApply('CssMin');

        \Basset::collection('bootstrap_siteC', function($collection)
        {
            // Collection definition.
            $collection->add('../private/assets/siteC/less/bootstrap-custom.less');
        })->apply('Less')->andApply('CssMin');

        \Basset::collection('bootstrap_siteD', function($collection)
        {
            // Collection definition.

        })->apply('Less')->andApply('CssMin');

Then in app/config/app.php we need to add the provider to the providers array...
