@tailor-cms/tce-vue v0.2.0

tce-template-vue

Template project to quickly get started developing custom content elements.

:warning: DISCLAIMER The project is in early prototype phase. More info will be added later.

Description

This project is a starting point used for developing custom content elements for Tailor. It is intended to get you up and running quickly by bootstraping the application structure and setting base default properties.

Requirements

• Node & npm

Setup

The project is already preconfigured with certain defaults, however it is necessary to go through some properties and modify the values for the purposes of your specific custom content element.

Instructions

1. Run npx @tailor-cms/tce-vue and follow the instructions to setup the project

content-element folder

Folder structure

Add code for the edit component of your element to edit/index.vue file. If the element supports them, you can also add code for top toolbar and side toolbar in the designated files. In the same manner add code for the display component to display/index.vue file. You can choose any kind of component composition, however only root Edit and Display components can be exposed as a part of the element's interface. TypeScript types can be added to support better developer experience and serve as a documentation for the element. Use the ElementData interface in typings.ts file to specify and list the data that your element requires and manages. The initState function can optionally be specified to return the initial state of that data. Make sure to edit the relevant properties of the manifest in index.ts file.

preview folder

The intent of the previewer is to provide a development environment outside of Tailor CMS and other external systems. That way, you're able to get early feedback on the element you're building and test it in isolation. Previewer supports sharing common properties between edit and display states if those exist. Look for the comments and placeholders in the code to wire up the components.

Used technologies

The project currently uses Vue 3, Vite and Vuetify 3 beta. Note that some features from the older versions of Vue and Vuetify may not be supported or work as expected.
