@swim/site

@swim/site provides minimalist components that implement common dynamic website behaviors. @swim/site is part of the @swim/web framework.

Installation

npm

For an npm-managed project, npm install @swim/site to make it a dependency. TypeScript sources will be installed into node_modules/@swim/site/main. Transpiled JavaScript and TypeScript definition files install into node_modules/@swim/site/lib/main. And a pre-built UMD script can be found in node_modules/@swim/site/dist/main/swim-site.js.

Browser

Browser applications can load swim-web.js—which bundles the @swim/site library—along with its swim-core.js and swim-ui.js dependencies, directly from the swimOS CDN.

<script src="https://cdn.swimos.org/js/latest/swim-ui.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.swimos.org/js/latest/swim-web.min.js"></script>

Alternatively, the standalone swim-system.js script may be loaded from the swimOS CDN, which bundles @swim/site together with all other @swim/system libraries.

Usage

ES6/TypeScript

@swim/site can be imported as an ES6 module from TypeScript and other ES6-compatible environments.

import * as site from "@swim/site";

CommonJS/Node.js

@swim/site can also be used as a CommonJS module in Node.js applications.

var site = require("@swim/site");

Browser

When loaded by a web browser, the swim-web.js script adds all @swim/site library exports to the global swim namespace. The swim-web.js script requires that swim-core.js and swim-ui.js have already been loaded.

The swim-system.js script also adds all @swim/site library exports to the global swim namespace, making it a drop-in replacement for 'swim-core.js', swim-ui.js, and swim-web.js when additional @swim/system libraries are needed.
