lerna run start --scope=[module-name]

Use Module in Host Application

  • Add remote module url to remotes in packages/[host-app]/moduleFederation.config.js 

# e.g. core module is runninig on localhost:3001 then

  remotes: {
    core: 'core@[window.appModules.core.url]/remoteEntry.js',
  },
  • Add entry to modules.json
# e.g. core module is runninig on localhost:3001 then

{
    "core":{
        "url": "http://localhost:3001"
    },
    ...
}
  • To use exposed component from remote module in react. The lazy load componennt must be enclosed within <React.Suspense>
# e.g. usiing AppShell component from core module

const AppShell = React.lazy(() => import("core/AppShell"));
...
<React.Suspense fallback="Loading ">
 <AppShell/>
</React.Suspense>
