Yarn is prefered as package manager. But any will do.

All static non view specific html, img and js files
CSS files are not stored here since SASS is used to generate them.
If you need to reference an html file from another html file the base path = '/discovery'.
for example: ./custom/11INST-VIEW/hello.html or /discovery/custom/11INST-VIEW /world.html

All static view specific css, html, img and js files

Start a preview in the browser

yarn start

Build a custom.js file. Will be written to ./dist/[INSTITUTION:VID] folder

yarn build

Watch for changes in the ./src folder and rebuild the custom.js file that will trigger a browser reload.

yarn watch

Package the ./dist folder into something that can be uploaded to Alma

yarn package

Run yarn inside the project directory to install all dependencies and possible updates

When using Visual Studio Code open a terminal and run

yarn watch

Open another terminal and run

yarn start

Everytime you update a component it will trigger a rebuild every rebuild will trigger a reload in the browser.

Creates a green dot on screen

class DotTestController {
    constructor() {
        console.log('test component');
    }
}

export let dotTestComponent = {
    name: 'dot-test',
    config: {
        bindings: {parentCtrl: '<'},
        controller: DotTestController,
        template: "<div style='position:fixed;right: 0;top: 0;color:#009991;opacity:0.5;z-index: 100000;font-size: 10em;'>.</div>"
    },
    enabled: true,
    appendTo: 'prm-top-bar-before',
    enableInView: '.*'
}

• name: name of the component.
• config: see AngularJS
• enabled: if component enabled in configuration
• appendTo: a before or after hook to attach your component. If value is NULL then the component can be used anywhere like for example the home page. Get a list of hooks. This varies depending on context.

Array.from(document.getElementsByTagName('*')).filter(f => /before|after/.test(f.localName))

• enabledInView: a RegEx to restrict a component to a view

An interceptor can modify the request and response of an API call.
Interceptors use a publish/subscribe mechanism. It is possible to intercept a request 'before' it is executed or 'after' is was executed and before the UI receives it.

Interceptors are stored in the src/modules/pubSubInterceptor/interceptors directory. It is possible to group interceptors in a sub directory. Every "before" interceptor calls the subscribed callback function with a request parameter. Every "after" interceptor calls the subscribed callback method with a response parameter.

For example:

document.addEventListener('pubSubInterceptorsReady', (e) => {    
    pubSub.subscribe('before-pnxBaseURL', (reqRes) => {
        //modify request here
        return reqRes;
    });

    pubSub.subscribe('after-pnxBaseURL', (reqRes) => {
        //modify response here
        return reqRes;
    });    
});

A topic name is constructed by a prefix(after-, before-) and a rest base url as defined by PrimoVE. All restBaseURLs can be queries for using the pubSub object.
