This is a LYRASIS-maintained fork of the NYPL Library Simplified Circulation Manager 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 Library Simplified Circulation Manager.
Suggested local folder setup:
/[path to project folder]/circulation
To use the published version with your circulation manager, run npm install
from api/admin
in the circulation
local installed repository.
Suggested local folder setup:
/[path to project folder]/circulation
/[path to project folder]/circulation-web
If you're working on the administrative interface and want to test local changes, you can link your local clone of this repository to your local circulation manager. These steps will allow you to work on the front-end administrative interface and see updates while developing.
- Run
npm link
in thiscirculation-web
repository, - run
npm link simplified-circulation-web
fromapi/admin
in thecirculation
repository, - run the circulation manager using
python app.py
at the root in thecirculation
repository, - run the web interface using
npm run dev
at the root of thiscirculation-web
repository, - visit
localhost:6500/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 circulation
or circulation-web
servers.
The Circulation Manager administrative interface relies on the OPDS Web Catalog as its base React component and application. For more information, please check out the repository.
This package is published to npm.
To publish a new version, you need to create an npm account and be a collaborator on the package. Then you can run npm publish
from your local copy of the repository.
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 Travis CI for continuous integration. Any pull requests submitted must have tests and those tests must pass on Travis CI.
There are end-to-end tests that run on Nightwatch. This selenium-based test runner allows us to include integration tests for logging into the admin and clicking through different pages.
To set up credentials and run the tests, check out the README in `/tests/.
