The Uniform Scaffold Package is a CLI tool designed to generate React components based on Canvas data. This package simplifies the process of creating and registering components in a Uniform project.

Features

• Component Generation: Generates Canvas React components based on Canvas data with all the necessary imports, types and properties.
• Component Registration: Automatically registers components in the Custom Canvas resolver.
• Custom Folder Support: Optionally specify a custom folder path for your components.

Installation

npm install @uniformdev/scaffold

Usage

To use the package, you can run the following command:

Command

Run the generate command to create a React component:

npx npx scaffold add

Add a Custom Script to package.json

You can add a custom script to your package.json for easier usage:

"scripts": {
  "scaffold:add": "scaffold add"
}

Run the command with:

npm run scaffold:add

Environment Variables

Before running the command, you can configure the following environment variables:

• UNIFORM_API_KEY: Your Uniform API key.
• UNIFORM_PROJECT_ID: The ID of your Uniform project.

These can be set in a .env file or provided directly during the CLI process.

Optional Configuration

If you want to use a custom folder for your components, set the CUSTOM_CANVAS_FOLDER_PATH environment variable:

CUSTOM_CANVAS_FOLDER_PATH=src/components/custom-canvas

Generated Code

The package generates a React component and integrates it into the Canvas resolver by updating the component mappings.

Workflow

1. Set Environment Variables: Ensure the required variables (UNIFORM_API_KEY and UNIFORM_PROJECT_ID) are set.
2. Run the Command: Use npx scaffold add or your custom npm script (npm run scaffold:add).
