npm version npm downloads Travis Issues TypeScript MIT license Chat

Getting Started


  • Clone the repo and install the necessary node modules:
# Install Yarn and Lex globally
$ npm install -g yarn @nlabs/lex

# Download example app package and install dependencies (may take awhile the first time)
$ lex init exampleApp @nlabs/arkhamjs-example-ts-react -i

Usage


yarn start also yarn development

Runs the webpack build system to compile scripts on the fly. Also runs a local development web server which can be found at localhost:9000. The port can be changed in the config.

yarn build

Compile your application and copy static files for a production environment.

yarn clean

Clean your app directory. Removes coverage, node_modules, npm-debug.log, package-lock.log, yarn.lock, and yarn-error.log.

yarn lint

Lint your app with tslint.

yarn test

Runs all unit tests within the app with Jest.

yarn production

Run tests and then, on success, compile your application for a production environment.

Configuration


See @nlabs/lex for documentation on custom configuration.

The folder structure provided is only meant to serve as a guide, it is by no means prescriptive. It is something that has worked very well for me and my team, but use only what makes sense to you.

Components vs. Views vs. Layouts

TL;DR: They're all components.

This distinction may not be important for you, but as an explanation: A Layout is something that describes an entire page structure, such as a fixed navigation, viewport, sidebar, and footer. Most applications will probably only have one layout, but keeping these components separate makes their intent clear. Views are components that live at routes, and are generally rendered within a Layout. What this ends up meaning is that, with this structure, nearly everything inside of Components ends up being a dumb component.

Styles


All .css imports will be run through postcss and cssnext, extracted and compiled during builds. CSS features included are nested classes and SASS-like variables. Styles must be imported either directly within the js file or via another stylesheet which has already been imported.

// JS
import `./component.css`;

Testing


To add a unit test, simply create a *.test.ts or *.test.tsx file within the /src directory. Jest will look for these for and test these files.

Troubleshooting


Nothing yet. Having an issue? Report it and We'll get to it as soon as possible!
