concord-react-components v0.1.9

Concord React Components

Intended to be used as a common repository for reusable UI widgets.

This project was set up in the Fall of 2019. It followed this Design Systems for Developers tutorial.

Typescipt was used intstead of plain JS. It was bootstrapped with Create React App:

npx create-react-app concord-react-components --typescript

Preview the components on the storybook server:

This project is audomatically deployed to https://storybook.concord.org/ via github Netlify integration

Getting Started

• First install dependencies yarn install from the project root.
• Run a local storybook server by typing yarn run storybook from the project root.
• Add components to src/components/
• Add stories for those components in stories/
• Add your components to the exports index.ts
• Use your new components in other projects by adding dependencies to concord-react-components in your project's package.json file, and import-ing them.
• You can link concord-react-components to your working checkout by using npm link from the projects top directory.
• Link the components into your target app by running npm link concord-react-components from the target apps top directory. Remember to remove the link, and link to actual NPM package later. The best practice when doing this sort of work is probably to remove node_modules and do a clean install of concord-react-components from npm.

Publishing changes

• 'yarn build' to build ./dist
• Adjust the version number in package.json adhering to semver. If the release number is less than 1.0 then no promises are made. Otherwise if a components property changes in an incompatible way, bump the major version number. New components can simply bump the minor version number.
• yarn publish to push changes up to npm

Converting SVGs to svgr-icons using svgr

You can convert SVG files into react functional components by using the svgr command line tool. eg: cd source-icons npx @svgr/cli --icon --out-dir ../src/components/svgr-icons --template ../svgr.config.js --ext tsx *.svg

Other yarn Scripts:

In the project directory, you can run:

yarn run storybook

Runs the storybook component browswer on a local port.

yarn run build

Builds the dist folder for publishing to NPM

yarn publish

Will publish the dist folder to NPM.

yarn run eject

Note: this is a one-way operation. Once you eject, you can’t go back!

2019-11-07 NP: It seems like we have no need for this linkage. We should consider ejecting.

This project was originally setup using: npx create-react-app concord-react-components --typescript

If you aren’t satisfied with the build tool and configuration choices, you can eject at any time. This command will remove the single build dependency from your project.

Instead, it will copy all the configuration files and the transitive dependencies (Webpack, Babel, ESLint, etc) right into your project so you have full control over them. All of the commands except eject will still work, but they will point to the copied scripts so you can tweak them. At this point you’re on your own.
