SRF Feathers 🪶

License: MIT NPM

Shared Frontend Components for SRF applications

Usage

Run npm install srf-feathers --save in your project root.

Import and use components in your code:

import { Button } from "srf-feathers";

const MyComponent = () => (
  <div>
    <Button />
  </div>
);

Importing Sass Modules

Example using Webpack:

module.exports = {
  ...,
  resolve: {
    alias: {
      "@Feathers": path.resolve(__dirname, "node_modules/srf-feathers/build")
    },
    extensions: [".scss"],
    module: {
      rules: [
        {
          test: /\.(scss)$/i,
          use: ["style-loader", "css-loader", "resolve-url-loader", "sass-loader"],
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

Import Feathers Modules in your stylesheet:

@use "@Feathers/foundation/breakpoints";
@use "@Feathers/foundation/colors";
@use "@Feathers/foundation/fonts";
@use "@Feathers/foundation/globals";
@use "@Feathers/foundation/mixins";
@use "@Feathers/foundation/variables";

Fonts

Importing the font module requires to add the resolve-url-loader to your webpack config. It allows webpack to resolve the relative paths of fonts. Check the webpack documentation for more details on this issue.

In case this solution doesn't work for your usecase. It is possible to adjust the path of the fonts by overwriting the $font-path variable:

@use "@Feathers/fonts" with (
  $font-path: "/path/to/fonts/"
);

Development

Installation

  • check out srf-feathers git clone git@github.com:mmz-srf/feathers.git
  • enter directory where you installed it, e.g. cd feathers
  • install dependencies npm install

ℹ️ If you have to update the secrets (e.g. CHROMATIC_PROJECT_TOKEN for deployment to chromatic or NPM_TOKEN for deploying on NPM), you can change them on https://github.com/mmz-srf/feathers/settings/secrets/actions

Building

npm run build

Storybook

To run a live-reload Storybook server on your local machine:

npm run storybook

Publishing

srf-feathers is published on NPM. A github workflow is used to auto-publish on NPM when the version number in package.json is increased on the main branch.

In case this fails, publish via npm publish (you must be logged into npm in the CLI).

Generating New Components

There is a handy NodeJS util file under util called create-component.js. Instead of copy pasting components to create a new component, you can instead run this command to generate all the files you need to start building out a new component. To use it:

npm run generate YourComponentName

This will generate:

/src
  /YourComponentName
    YourComponentName.tsx
    YourComponentName.stories.tsx
    YourComponentName.types.ts
    YourComponentName.scss

The default templates for each file can be modified under util/templates.

⚠️ Don't forget to add the component to your index.ts exports if you want the library to export the component!

Additional Help

Install local version of feathers in your project

While developing, it is useful to not have to publish every little change to NPM before you can use it in your project. For this, it's possible to "install" a local version of srf-feathers in your project with

npm i --save relative/path/to/feathers/repo

If, for example, your project's repository is in the same folder you checked out srf-feather, you can run the following command in your project's root folder:

npm i --save ../feathers

⚠️ If you've previously installed srf-feathers via NPM, you might have to remove the folder in your node_modules.

Install feathers from GitHub branch

Alternatively to installing a local version of feathers you can also install it from a GitHub branch. This option is useful if you want to provide a deployable review application for testing:

npm i --save mmz-srf/feathers#my-branch

yarn add srf-feathers@https://github.com/mmz-srf/feathers.git#my-branch

dev-tools (feathers-dev)

For a smoother experience, a collection of the most used commands has been added to a dev-script in /bin/feathers-dev. List the available commands with

./bin/feathers-dev help 

ℹ️ Pro tip: add alias feathers-dev='path/to/feathers/bin/feathers-dev' to your ~/.zshrc or equivalent to be able to type feathers-dev!
