Getting started

Install the package:

yarn add @centro/admin

Add the plugin to your medusa-config.js:

module.exports = {
  // ...
  plugins: [
    {
      resolve: "@centro/admin",
      options: {
        // ...
      },
    },
  ],
  // ...
}

Configuration

The plugin can be configured with the following options:

OptionTypeDescriptionDefault
serveboolean?Whether to serve the admin dashboard or not.true
pathstring?The path the admin server should run on. Should not be prefixed or suffixed with a slash. Cannot be one of the reserved paths: "admin" and "store"."app"
outDirstring?Optional path for where to output the admin build filesundefined
autoRebuildboolean?Decides whether the admin UI should be rebuild if any changes or a missing build is detected during server startupfalse

Hint: You can import the PluginOptions type for inline documentation for the different options:

module.exports = {
  // ...
  plugins: [
    {
      resolve: "@centro/admin",
      /** @type {import('@centro/admin').PluginOptions} */
      options: {
        path: "app",
      },
    },
  ],
  // ...
}

Building the admin dashboard

The admin will be built automatically the first time you start your server if you have enabled autoRebuild. Any subsequent changes to the plugin options will result in a rebuild of the admin dashboard.

You may need to manually trigger a rebuild sometimes, for example after you have upgraded to a newer version of @centro/admin, or if you have disabled autoRebuild. You can do so by adding the following script to your package.json:

{
  "scripts": {
    "build:admin": "medusa-admin build"
  }
}

Accessing the admin dashboard

The admin dashboard will be available at your-server-url/app, unless you have specified a custom path in the plugin options. If you are running your server locally on port 9000 with the default path "app", you will be able access the admin dashboard at http://localhost:9000/app.

Local development

e2e Test

To test the local UI changes and work with Admin from the main backend project, follow these steps:

  • From the root of this project (if this is the first time), run npm link
  • If this is the first time, link to you local @centro/admin-ui, by running npm link @centro/admin-ui. This assumes you already run npm link from the root of the @centro/admin-ui project
  • Run npm run build
  • Go to the backend project:
    • Run npm link @centro/admin if this is the first setup
    • Run npm run dev to start the backend, pointing to this symlink
