1. Tools

Make sure you have installed the following software/tools. Look versions requirements in package.json section engines

1. node - Node.js.
2. yarn - Dependency manager
3. vue-cli 3 - Install globally
4. Quasar CLI - Install globally
5. cordova - Install globally
6. google chrome - web browser

2. Setup

IMPORTANT: Set up backend before you set up the app.

Install project dependencies by running the following command in <PROJECT_ROOT_DIRECTORY>

yarn

Create environment variables files.

Copy environments/example.json and rename it to dev.json to same directory

  "API_URL": "http://coplays-content.on.local/api",
  "APPLICATION_ID": "1",
  "CLIENT_ID": "2",
  "CLIENT_SECRET": "",
  "BUGSNAG_API_KEY": "",
  "VUE_ROUTER_MODE": "history",
  "BUILD_ENV": "dev"

1. dev.json for local development
2. staging.json for staging
3. prod.json for production

This boilerplate supports several package versions. Configuration of each package should be specified in according file in 'package/<package_name>.js' You can look examples of available configurations in 'package/example.js' Every provided in config section will be proxied to process.env.<key>

All app configs are declared in src/config.js Do not use process.env.<*> in code, use src/config.js instead.

Run app in the browser

yarn serve

By default yarn serve will serve the app in material theme.

To serve app in ios theme

yarn server -t ios

To serve app in material theme

yarn server -t mat

3. Mobile App Preparation

Visit https://quasar-framework.org/guide/cordova-preparation.html and setup android develop environment

Run app in android mobile

# run app in development mode
yarn android:dev

# run app in staging mode, Make sure you have properly configured /environments/staging.js
yarn android:staging

# run app in staging mode, Make sure you have properly configured /environments/prod.js
yarn android:prod

4. Theming

Visit Quasar theming and make yourself familiar with it.

Structure

src
└── css
    └── themes
        ├── common.variables.styl # Theme Shared Quasar Variables
        ├── variables.mat.styl    # Quasar Variables that apply to Material only
        └── variables.ios.styl    # Quasar Variables that apply to iOS only

Overriding default stylus vairables

Read a complete list of all Stylus variables that you can override. Most of the time overides should be done in /src/css/themes/common.variables.styl file unless we need platform specific overrides

5. Linting

We are using ESLint with plugin:vue/essential and @vue/standard presets. @vue/standard - is the wrapper over standardjs preset.

Usage

• Linter will be run automatically on commit.
• If you want to run lint fix manually just run lint npm script (yarn lint or npm run lint).

IDE support

To have IDE Support of standard code style you may want to install standard plugin for your IDE.

Webstorm or other Jetbrains IDE

1. Open settings (ctrl + alt + s), go to Editor > Code Style > Javascript push set from... and switch predefined style to Javascript Standard Style. Example: https://i.imgur.com/GJCGifs.png
2. Open settings (ctrl + alt + s), go to Languages and framewors > JavaScript > Code Quality Tools > ESLint and specify ESLint package to: coplays-content-app\node_modules\eslint. Example: https://i.imgur.com/QkpZeYW.png

Under the hood

To run lint on pre-commit we are using yorkie in devDependencies

6. Testing

For testing we are using Jest framework (https://jestjs.io/)

All tests are located in /src folder. Each test should be placed in the model it is used for. All tests should have .spec.js extension. For example:

UserLoginForm.vue
UserLoginForm.spec.js

To run tests yarn test

10 Building components

Do not use stateful singletons in app. Read quasar docs for more info. Use Vue plugins to provide instances.

All components should be wrapped in EpicmaxGate component. EpicmaxGate component provides dependencies like SDK and so on. Don not use Vue plugins (this.$axios or other) inside your custom components, do not import SDK or complicated dependencies in components directly. Use Inject/Provide instead. We are using vue-property-decorator code style

Provides in EpicmaxGate component

import { Component, Provide, Vue } from 'vue-property-decorator'
import {
  OrganizationRepoKey,
  NotifyErrorKey,
} from './src/AppKeys'

import { OrganizationRepository } from './src/sdk/Organization/OrganizationRepository'
import ApiProxy from './src/utilities/Api/ApiProxy'
@Component
export default class EpicmaxGate extends Vue {
  
  @Provide(NotifyErrorKey) notifyError = this.$epicmax.notifyError
  // REPOSITORIES
  @Provide(OrganizationRepoKey) organizationRepo = new OrganizationRepository(
    new ApiProxy(this.$axios)
  )
}

for more examples look 'EpicmaxGate' component

Injections in EpicmaxOrganisationSaveForm component

import { Component , Inject, Prop, Vue, Watch} from 'vue-property-decorator'
import { OrganizationRepository } from './src/sdk/Organization/OrganizationRepository'
import { OrganizationRepoKey } from './src/AppKeys'

@Component
export default class EpicmaxOrganisationSaveForm extends Vue {
  @Inject(OrganizationRepoKey) organizationRepo!: OrganizationRepository

  async save () {
    await this.organizationRepo.save(this.organization)
  }
}

For Every hard-logic component write .demo.vue. New created demo can be found in /demo route. For more info read docs
