Welcome to Jenkins.io Web Components
This is an attempt to build web components that can be used across various jenkins.io based projects
Setup
Install dependencies:
npm i
Build
This sample uses the TypeScript compiler to produce JavaScript that runs in modern browsers.
To build the JavaScript version of your component:
npm run build
To watch files and rebuild when the files are modified, run the following command in a separate shell:
npm run build:watch
Both the TypeScript compiler and lit-analyzer are configured to be very strict. You may want to change tsconfig.json
to make them less strict.
Testing
This sample uses modern-web.dev's @web/test-runner for testing. See the modern-web.dev testing documentation for more information.
Tests can be run with the test
script, which will run your tests against Lit's development mode (with more verbose errors) as well as against Lit's production mode:
npm test
For local testing during development, the test:dev:watch
command will run your tests in Lit's development mode (with verbose errors) on every change to your source files:
npm test:watch
Alternatively the test:prod
and test:prod:watch
commands will run your tests in Lit's production mode.
Dev Server
To run the dev server and open the project in a new browser tab:
npm run storybook
Editing
If you use VS Code, we highly recommend the lit-plugin extension, which enables some extremely useful features for lit-html templates:
- Syntax highlighting
- Type-checking
- Code completion
- Hover-over docs
- Jump to definition
- Linting
- Quick Fixes
The project is setup to recommend lit-plugin to VS Code users if they don't already have it installed.
Linting
Linting of TypeScript files is provided by ESLint and TypeScript ESLint. In addition, lit-analyzer is used to type-check and lint lit-html templates with the same engine and rules as lit-plugin.
The rules are mostly the recommended rules from each project, but some have been turned off to make LitElement usage easier. The recommended rules are pretty strict, so you may want to relax them by editing .eslintrc.json
and tsconfig.json
.
To lint the project run:
npm run lint
Formatting
Prettier is used for code formatting. It has been pre-configured according to the Lit's style. You can change this in .prettierrc.json
.
Prettier has not been configured to run when committing files, but this can be added with Husky and and pretty-quick
. See the prettier.io site for instructions.
