Introduction

Scripts for creating a Aurelia-DevExtreme plugin. The scripts are using the metadata.json from DevExpress, they are using for their Angular implementation. The plugin is published to npmjs.

Btw it's not important whether you're using 19.2.10 of the DevExtreme and 19.2.6 of this package, as the signature properties/event usually don't change in minor versions. The bridge only makes use of these names for binding/events.

Using

Create an Aurelia-App using the aurelia-cli.

au new

Install aurelia-devextreme-bridge

npm i aurelia-devextreme-bridge devextreme -S

When using Aurelia's built in bundler you have to modify aurelia.json (at least I don't know how to get work without it). When using Webpack it just works. You don't have to do nothing ;-)

{
  "build": {
    "bundles": [
      {
        "name": "vendor-bundle.js",
        "prepend": [
          "node_modules/jszip/dist/jszip.js",
          "node_modules/devextreme/dist/js/dx.all.js"
          "require ..."
        ]
      }
    ],
    "copyFiles": {
      "node_modules/devextreme/dist/css/icons/*": "icons"
    }
  }
}

In your main.ts add the desired theme and register the plugin within Aurelia. As configuration you have to pass the specific widget-loader.

• global-loader: when using the built-in loader "aurelia-devextreme-bridge/dist/commonjs/global-loader"
• require-loader: when module loader is webpack "aurelia-devextreme-bridge/dist/commonjs/require-loader"

import "devextreme/dist/css/dx.common.css";
import "devextreme/dist/css/dx.light.compact.css";

//import loader from "aurelia-devextreme-bridge/dist/commonjs/global-loader";
//import loader from "aurelia-devextreme-bridge/dist/commonjs/require-loader";

aurelia.use
    .standardConfiguration()
    .plugin(PLATFORM.moduleName("aurelia-devextreme-bridge"), {
      loader: loader
    });

Now you can make use of the dx-widgets.

<dx-text-box value.two-way="myTextProperty"></dx-text-box>

or in a general way

<dx widget-name="dxTextBox" widget-options.bind="textBoxOptions"></dx>

currentValue = "test";
textBoxOptions: DevExpress.ui.dxTextBoxOptions = {
  bindingOptions: {
    value: "currentValue"
  }
};
