Using this app as pre-built package
Install app
If you want to install the dbp formalize app in a new folder formalize-app
you can call:
npx @digital-blueprint/cli install-app formalize formalize-app /
Warning: There may be issues when you run these commands as root user, best use a non-root user, like www-data
.
To do this you can for example open a shell with runuser -u www-data -- bash
.
Afterwards you can point your Apache web-server to formalize-app/public
.
Make sure you are allowing .htaccess
files in your Apache configuration.
Also make sure to add all of your resources you are using (like your API and Keycloak servers) to the
Content-Security-Policy
in your formalize-app/public/.htaccess
, so the browser allows access to those sites.
You can also use this app directly from the Unpkg CDN for example like this: dbp-formalize/index.html
Note that you will need a Keycloak server along with a client id for the domain you are running this html on.
Update app
If you want to update the dbp formalize app in the current folder you can call:
npx @digital-blueprint/cli update-app formalize
Warning: There may be issues when you run these commands as root user, best use a non-root user, like www-data
.
To do this you can for example open a shell with runuser -u www-data -- bash
.
Activities

dbp-show-registrations

Mandatory attributes

<dbp-formalize
auth
requested-login-status
analytics-event
>
</dbp-formalize>
Design
For frontend design customizations, such as logo, colors, font, favicon, and more, take a look at the theming documentation.
"dbp-formalize" slots
These are common slots for the app-shell. You can find the documentation of these slots in the app-shell documentation. For the app specific slots take a look at the formalize activities.
Notice
We are using autogenerated table header for creating the submission tables.
A get query is made to dbp-relay. This returns a json. This json contains various data of the previous posted submission.
To post a form to the api, take a look at: operations-Formalize-postFormalizeSubmissionCollection. This post contains the name of the form "form" and the data of the form "dataFeedElement". the data must be a valid json as a string, i.e. quotation marks must be escaped with a "". The data keys of forms with the same "form" name must be consistent, otherwise the new keys are not displayed and no data would be displayed in the old key table header.
