Project layout

• src/
  • MyWidget.xml - widget definition
  • MyWidget.[tj]sx - widget client component
  • MyWidget.editorPreview.[tj]sx - (optional) widget preview
  • MyWidget.editorConfig.[tj]s - (optional) widget editor configuration
  • components/
    • MyComponent.[tj]s - code of widget's components
    • __tests__/
      • MyComponent.spec.[tj]s - tests for widget's components
  • .eslint.js - configuration for ESLint. We recommend to just re-export @mendix/pluggable-widgets-tools/configs/eslint.ts.base.json
  • prettier.config.js - configuration for Prettier. We recommend to just re-export @mendix/pluggable-widgets-tools/configs/prettier.base.json
  • tsconfig.json - configuration for TypeScript. We recommend to just extend @mendix/pluggable-widgets-tools/configs/tsconfig.base.json
  • rollup.config.js - (optional) custom configurations for rollup bundler. The standard configuration is passed as an argument named configDefaultConfig.
  • package.json - widget package definitions, including its dependencies, scripts, and basic configuration (widgetName and config.projectPath in particular)

Migrating from previous versions

• Webpack bundler is changed to a Rollup. You must migrate your custom configuration.
• Update pluggable-widgets-tools commands used in your package.json file to one of the described in this readme. In particular start:js, start:ts, and start:server commands should be changed to start:web.
• You now can use named exports in your widget. That is, you can write export MyWidget; instead of export default MyWidget;.
• You should not use react-hot-loader anymore. You can remove the call it, which is anyway replaced with a noop function.
