# Install all dependencies
yarn install

# Create symbolic link
yarn link

# Build library in watch mode
yarn build:watch

In your project folder that should consume the library:

# Go to consumer repository folder
cd case-management-web

# Link you library to the project
yarn link "@hmcts/ccd-case-ui-toolkit"

yarn start

Note: The linking might be broken so if your encounter problems please follow this process:

# Install all dependencies
yarn install

# Build library in watch mode
yarn build:watch

In you project folder that should consume the library:

# Go to consumer repository folder
cd case-management-web

# Remove existing toolkit dist
rm -rf node_modules/\@hmcts/ccd-case-ui-toolkit/dist

# Link you library to the project
cp <location of ccd-case-ui-toolkit>/dist node_modules/\@hmcts/ccd-case-ui-toolkit

yarn start

You can also have a quick look at an example usage of the UI Toolkit demo project (after both folders had yarn install ran on them) by:

# Build the toolkit and fire up the demo application to view it
yarn demo

Broken down into individual steps, this does the following:

# build UI Toolkit
yarn build:esm

# copy UI Toolkit dist folder to demo/node_modules/@hmcts/ccd-case-ui-toolkit/dist
yarn build:demo

# start demo app and stub server in same process
yarn start
# Go to http://localhost:8080

• yarn build for building the library once (both ESM and AOT versions).
• yarn build:watch for building the library (both ESM and AOT versions) and watch for file changes.

You may also build UMD bundle and ESM files separately:

• yarn build:esm - for building AOT/JIT compatible versions of files.
• yarn build:esm:watch - the same as previous command but in watch-mode.
• yarn build:umd - for building UMD bundle only.
• yarn build:umd:watch - the same as previous command but in watch-mode.

For CCD developers it should be noted the library should be built with just the yarn build:esm which is much faster. That will build the JIT version that is currently used by case management web.

• yarn test for running all your *.spec.ts tests once. Generated code coverage report may be found in coverage folder.
• yarn test:watch for running all you *.spec.ts and watch for file changes.

In order to debug your library in browser you need to have Angular project that will consume your library, build the application and display it. For your convenience all of that should happen automatically in background so once you change library source code you should instantly see the changes in browser.

There are several ways to go here:

• Use your real library-consumer project and link your library to it via yarn link command (see below).
• Use Angular-CLI to generate library-consumer project for you and then use yarn link to link your library to it.

You may take advantage of watch-modes for library build in order to see changes to your library's source code immediately in your browser.

To do so you need to:

1. Open two console instances.
2. Launch library build in watch mode in first console instance by running yarn build:watch (assuming that you're in case-ui-toolkit root folder).
3. Launch your consumer project build (JIT version) in watch-mode by running yarn start in second console instance (for instance assuming that you're in case-management-web folder).

As a result once you change library source code it will be automatically re-compiled and in turn your JIT consuming project (e.g. case-management-web) will be automatically re-built and you will be able to see that changes in your browser instantly.

Travis build system automatically publish NPM packages including GitHub releases whenever there is a version change in package.json
