Titan - APM's React Base Component Library
This is a collection of React components that are frequently needed in American Public Media's website. It will work with any website set up with Next.js.
How to use
Simply download from npm with npm i apm-titan
or yarn add apm-titan
, if you're using yarn. Import the components with ES6 import statements in the usual way. For example, if a page you are working on needs Content, Event, and Button components, you'd put the line import { Content, Event, Button } from 'apm-titan'
at the top of your file.
How to edit
If you need to make a change to a component, you may do so in the usual way. You can test your components with Jest by running npm run test
, you can see each of the components in action in npm run storybook
. If you want to ensure that the components are working in another application, run npm link
here and npm link apm-titan
in the directory of your choice. Uninstall the original apm-titan
first if the application you're testing was already relying on it.
Available components
We have split up our components into "atoms" which are very tiny components used everywhere, and "molecules" which are larger, more specific components that will likely only be useful for templating out APM sites. Our image component, Mimas, is a separate library that can be found here.
Publishing
To publish this component with the proper name, you'll need to run the usuall command with the --access public
command:
npm publish --access public
FAQ
What's with the name?
Our internal website generator will be called "Saturn". Therefore, each of the component libraries that it will be able to use will be named after Saturn's moons. This is the largest library we think we're going to have, so it got its name from Saturn's largest moon.
