Disco UI
Install
npm install --save disco-ui styled-components react
yarn add disco-ui styled-components react
Development
Local development alongside your app
If you wish to work on the Disco UI library while importing it into your own app, you can do so for instance using npm link
or yarn link
.
Set up the Disco UI repo:
git clone https://github.com/Probably-Nothing-Inc/disco-ui.git
yarn install
yarn link
yarn run watch
In your app you can then run:
yarn link disco-ui
Your app will now use your local copy of Disco UI and should receive any changes as you make them.
Standalone Disco UI development
If you wish to work on the Disco UI library directly, you can do so without another app:
git clone https://github.com/Probably-Nothing-Inc/disco-ui.git
cd disco-ui
yarn install
yarn run install-peer-deps
You can now run yarn run storybook
to work on individual components, or yarn run server:start
to run the example create-react-app app.
Note that once you have run install-peer-deps
in your local Disco UI library, if you are linking it to your app then your app will end up with duplicate copies of Disco UI's package.json
's peerDependencies
, and so React (and styled-components if you are using that) will probably break. To resolve this, you will have to link these dependencies: navigate to <your-app>/node_modules/react
and run yarn link
, and then return to the disco-ui
directory and run yarn link react
(and repeat for any other peer dependencies that are causing issues, like react-dom
and react-router-dom
). See this article for more context. Alternately, you can delete disco-ui/node_modules
, re-run yarn install
, and do not install peer dependencies.
