Introduction

Development

You can develop an add-on in isolation using the boilerplate already provided by the add-on generator. The project is configured to have the current add-on installed and ready to work with. This is useful to bootstrap an isolated environment that can be used to quickly develop the add-on or for demo purposes. It's also useful when testing an add-on in a CI environment.

It's quite similar when you develop a Plone backend add-on in the Python side, and embed a ready to use Plone build (using buildout or pip) in order to develop and test the package.

The dockerized approach performs all these actions in a custom built docker environment:

1. Generates a vanilla project using the official Volto Yo Generator (@plone/generator-volto)
2. Configures it to use the add-on with the name stated in the package.json
3. Links the root of the add-on inside the created project

After that you can use the inner dockerized project, and run any standard Volto command for linting, acceptance test or unit tests using Makefile commands provided for your convenience.

Setup the environment

Run once

make dev

which will build and launch the backend and frontend containers. There's no need to build them again after doing it the first time unless something has changed from the container setup.

In order to make the local IDE play well with this setup, is it required to run once yarn to install locally the required packages (ESlint, Prettier, Stylelint).

Run

yarn

Build the containers manually

Run

make build-backend
make build-addon

Run the containers

Run

make start-dev

This will start both the frontend and backend containers.

Stop Backend (Docker)

After developing, in order to stop the running backend, don't forget to run:

Run

make stop-backend

Linting

Run

make lint

Formatting

Run

make format

i18n

Run

make i18n

Unit tests

Run

make test

Acceptance tests

Run once

make install-acceptance

For starting the servers

Run

make start-test-acceptance-server

The frontend is run in dev mode, so development while writing tests is possible.

Run

make test-acceptance

To run Cypress tests afterwards.

When finished, don't forget to shutdown the backend server.

make stop-test-acceptance-server

Release

Run

make release

For releasing a RC version

Run

make release-rc
