Protocol-common NPM

Using protocol-common

Protocol-common is a shared library of commonly used functions in protocol web services such as Aries-Guardianship-Agency.

Protocol-common is distributed through npm packages. Please use this npm package for your work.

Using protocol-common locally

If you'd like to use a local version of protocol-common instead of the version available through npm packages, we've added some handy scripts to help you do so. 1. In protocol-common, run the command npm run build:pack - This will compile your code into a dist/ directory and create a .tgz installable binary of protocol-common. - Note the path to the .tgz, this will be important for the next step! 2. In the project that will use protocol-common, run the command npm install <path to .tgz>. 3. Try it out!

Getting Started

Typically, you'll need to update this repo when you want to change code that's shared among multiple services. 1. Create a branch. 2. Make your code changes. 3. (optional) Test your changes by using protocol-common locally with some other project that depends on it. 4. Update the "version" in package.json using Major.Minor.Patch semantic versioning. 5. Commit your change to the branch and create a new PR in Github. 6. Once approved and merged, CircleCI will automatically push an npm package with the version number you specified. 7. (optional) Update repos that consume protocol-common.
