Usage

Plugin

Add the plugin in the webpack configuration passing the Nova entry endpoints.

module.exports = {
  ...
  plugins: [
    new NovaConsumerPlugin({
      novas: [
        {
          entry: 'http://localhost:8080/client.js',
          views: [
            'ExampleView'
          ]
        }
      ]
    })
  ]
}

Live Reload

The plugin creates a socket connection for each Nova that is running with webpack-dev-server in development mode. Then the page is reload everytime that the Nova code is compiled with webpack.

Lazy Load

Lazy load is enabled by default when webpack runs in production mode. It generates a script file that loads the Nova entry when a view listed in the views field is placed in the page using the Nova Bridge

Example using nova-vue-bridge:

<template>
  <div class="container">
    <nova name="ExampleView" :data="{ title: 'Ara Framework' }" />
  </div>
</template>

The entry point http://localhost:8080/client.js is loaded when Vue.js mounts the example component above.
