v0.1.7 - pattern lab - node
PL-node-v0.1.7
- ADD: pattern export
- CHG: updated devDependencies
- FIX: fixed a type in the README and config
- THX: thanks @seanhussey for the pull request!
The most exciting thing added here is pattern export. Here's the excerpt from the README
:
Pattern Export
config.json
also has two properties that work together to export completed patterns for use in a production environment. Provide an array of keys and an output directory. Pattern Lab doesn't ship with any pattern export keys, but the default directory is "./pattern_exports/"
created inside the install directory.
"patternExportKeys": ["molecules-primary-nav", "organisms-header", "organisms-header"],
"patternExportDirectory": "./pattern_exports/"
Coupled with exported css (much easier to extract with existing tools like grunt-contrib-copy), pattern export can help to maintain the relevancy of the design system by directly placing partials in a directory of your choosing.
