fabric8-ui
Before you start
Backend API
Make sure you set the URL to the services. For UI development, we recommend connecting to the dev environment API server.
To connect to the dev enviornment instances:
export FABRIC8_WIT_API_URL="http://api.prod-preview.openshift.io/api/"
export FABRIC8_RECOMMENDER_API_URL="http://api-bayesian.dev.rdu2c.fabric8.io/api/v1/"
to your .bash_profile
and reload the shell.
VS Code
- Run
ext install EditorConfig
to read the .editorconfig file
To start
Run npm start
. This will start the UI with livereload enabled. Then navigate to http://localhost:3000.
CSS and SASS
fabric8-planner uses SASS for it's stylesheets. It also uses the Angular emulation
of the shadow dom, so you will normally want to place your styles in the
.component.scss
file next to the html and the typescript.
If you find yourself wanting to create a shared style that multiple components will
use, then we recommend adding it as a mixin to
src/assets/stylesheets/_planner-mixins.scss
. The mixins are imported in to every
.component.scss
file. You can then create a real class by doing something like
.my-class {
@include my-class;
}
We use mixins to avoid polluting components with uncessary style classes, and to avoid
an explosion of shared files.
The src/assets/stylesheets/
directory includes a shared
directory. These are
shared global styles that we will refactor out in to a shared library at some point.
Only update these styles if you are making a truly global style, and are going to
synchronise your changes across all the various UI projects.
Integrations
fabric8-ui uses rxjs to provide loose coupling between modules (both those in the code base and those integrated via NPM).
To do this, fabric8-ui makes extensive use of the Broadcaster.
Context
Space changed
When the current space the user is viewing changes, fabric8-ui broadcasts with the key spaceChanged
and the
new Space as the payload.
UI integrations
Notifications
To send a notification to the user, the module should import ngx-fabric8-wit
and inject the [Notifications](https://github.com/fabric8-ui/ngx-fabric8-wit/blob/master/src/app/notifications/notifications.ts)
service, and call the message()
method, passing in a Notification. You can subscribe to
the result of message()
to observe any NotificationActions that result
from the notification.
[[continuous-delivery-semantic-relases]]
Continuous Delivery & Semantic Relases
In ngx-fabric8-wit we use the
https://github.com/semantic-release/semantic-release[semantic-release
plugin]. That means that all you have to do is use the AngularJS Commit
Message Conventions (documented below). Once the PR is merged, a new
release will be automatically published to npmjs.com and a release tag
created on github. The version will be updated following semantic
versionning rules.
[[commit-message-format]]
Commit Message Format
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
A commit message consists of a *header*, *body* and *footer*. The header
has a *type*, *scope* and *subject*:
....
<type>(<scope>): <subject>
<BLANK LINE>
<body>
<BLANK LINE>
<footer>
....
The *header* is mandatory and the *scope* of the header is optional.
Any line of the commit message cannot be longer 100 characters! This
allows the message to be easier to read on GitHub as well as in various
git tools.
[[revert]]
Revert
^^^^^^
If the commit reverts a previous commit, it should begin with `revert:`,
followed by the header of the reverted commit. In the body it should
say: `This reverts commit <hash>.`, where the hash is the SHA of the
commit being reverted.
[[type]]
Type
^^^^
If the prefix is `feat`, `fix` or `perf`, it will always appear in the
changelog.
Other prefixes are up to your discretion. Suggested prefixes are `docs`,
`chore`, `style`, `refactor`, and `test` for non-changelog related
tasks.
[[scope]]
Scope
^^^^^
The scope could be anything specifying place of the commit change. For
example `$location`, `$browser`, `$compile`, `$rootScope`, `ngHref`,
`ngClick`, `ngView`, etc…
[[subject]]
Subject
^^^^^^^
The subject contains succinct description of the change:
* use the imperative, present tense: ``change'' not ``changed'' nor
``changes''
* don’t capitalize first letter
* no dot (.) at the end
[[body]]
Body
^^^^
Just as in the *subject*, use the imperative, present tense: ``change''
not ``changed'' nor ``changes''. The body should include the motivation
for the change and contrast this with previous behavior.
[[footer]]
Footer
^^^^^^
The footer should contain any information about *Breaking Changes* and
is also the place to reference GitHub issues that this commit *Closes*.
*Breaking Changes* should start with the word `BREAKING CHANGE:` with a
space or two newlines. The rest of the commit message is then used for
this.

[[examples]]
Examples
^^^^^^^^
Appears under ``Features'' header, pencil subheader:
....
feat(pencil): add 'graphiteWidth' option
....
Appears under ``Bug Fixes'' header, graphite subheader, with a link to
issue #28:
....
fix(graphite): stop graphite breaking when width < 0.1
Closes #28
....
Appears under ``Performance Improvements'' header, and under ``Breaking
Changes'' with the breaking change explanation:
....
perf(pencil): remove graphiteWidth option
BREAKING CHANGE: The graphiteWidth option has been removed. The default graphite width of 10mm is always used for performance reason.
....
The following commit and commit `667ecc1` do not appear in the changelog
if they are under the same release. If not, the revert commit appears
under the ``Reverts'' header.
....
revert: feat(pencil): add 'graphiteWidth' option
This reverts commit 667ecc1654a317a13331b17617d973392f415f02.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Commitizen helps you craft correct commit messages. Install it using
`npm install commitizen -g`. Then run `git cz` rather than `git commit`.
