PREreview Components

Developing your own components

Conventions

Client components

Package layout

• src/ contains ES6/JSX/SASS sources (pointed to by main)

All modules forming part of the public API of the component should be exported from the index.js. Deep imports are discouraged (e.g. package-name/some/file).

The component's index.js should export e.g.:

module.exports = {
  client: {
    components: [() => require('./LoginContainer')],
  },
}

Server components

Should specify a minimum required version of Node and have no transpiling.

The component's index.js should export e.g.:

module.exports = {
  server: () => app => require('./InkBackend')(app),
}

An instace of the Express.js server gets passed to the component as app.

Model components

A model component's index.js should export e.g.:

module.exports = {
  typeDefs: require('./typeDefs'),
  resolvers: require('./resolvers'),
  modelName: 'Manuscript',
  model: require('./manuscript'),
}

Publishing

Be sure to switch to a separate branch for Lerna releases (e.g. release), as the master branch is protected from push, so your releases will fail.
