This is a LYRASIS-maintained fork of the NYPL Library Simplified Library Registry administrative interface.
To see screenshots, read in-depth documentation, and find out more about the project, check out the Confluence site hosted by The New York Public Library.
This package is meant to be used with The Palace Project Library Registry.
Node.js version 18 is required to build and run the administrative interface.
Suggested local folder setup:
/[path to project folder]/library-registry/[path to project folder]/library-registry-admin
If you're working on the administrative interface and want to test local changes against a remote library registry, you can run the administrative interface using the command:
npm run dev-server -- --env=backend=[url]
For example, npm run dev-server -- --env=backend=https://registry-tpp-qa.palaceproject.io. The admin UI can then be accessed at http://localhost:8080/admin/.
This works by running a local proxy server. HTML pages received from the Library Registry that load assets from the library-registry-admin package on jsdelivr are rewritten to load them from the local webpack build instead.
Webpack will take care of compiling and updating any new changes made locally for development. Hot module replacement and live reloading are enabled, so the browser will automatically update as changes are made.
If you're working on the administrative interface and want to test local changes against a local library registry, you can link your local clone of this repository to your local library registry. These steps will allow you to work on the front-end administrative interface and see updates while developing.
- Run
npm linkin thislibrary-registry-adminrepository, - run
npm link library-registry-adminfrom thelibrary-registryrepository, - run the library registry using
python app.pyat the root in thelibrary-registryrepository, - run the web interface using
npm run devat the root of thislibrary-registry-adminrepository, - visit
localhost:7000/admin/
Webpack will take care of compiling and updating any new changes made locally for development. Just refresh the page to see updates without having to restart either the library-registry or library-registry-admin servers.
We use GitHub Actions for publishing. This package is published automatically when a new release is created.
In order to develop user interfaces that are accessible to everyone, there are tools added to the workflow. Besides the Typescript tslint-react-a11y plugin, react-axe is also installed for local development. Using that module while running the app uses a lot of resources so it should be only when specifically testing for accessibility and not while actively developing new features or fixing bugs.
In order to run the app with react-axe, run npm run dev-test-axe. This will add a local global variable process.env.TEST_AXE (through webpack) that will trigger react-axe in /src/index.tsx. The output will be seen in the browser's console terminal.
Like the codebase, all the unit tests are written in Typescript. Tests are written for all React components as well as redux and utility functions, and all can be found in their respective __tests__ folders.
To run the tests, perform npm test.
We use GitHub Actions for continuous integration. Any pull requests submitted must have tests and those tests must pass during the CI checks.
