Responsive and flexible LitElement based Application Layout. Built using @polymer/app-layout
Features
- Configurable Profile section in Drawer
- Configurable Title section in main header
- Components in toolbar
- Components in menu section in drawer
- Easy to setup, just a single element
Example
<fc-applayout title="Application Layout">
<div slot="title" main-title="">AppLayout Demo</div>
<paper-icon-button slot="toolbar" icon="settings" title="Settings" role="button"></paper-icon-button>
<div slot="menu">
<p onclick="this.dispatchEvent(new CustomEvent('item-clicked', {bubbles: true}))">This is menu</p>
</div>
<div>Content</div>
</fc-applayout>
Setup
Install dependencies:
npm i
Build
This project uses the TypeScript compiler to produce JavaScript that runs in modern browsers.
To build the JavaScript version of it:
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 project uses Karma, Chai, Mocha, and the open-wc test helpers for testing. See the open-wc testing documentation for more information.
Tests can be run with the test
script:
npm test
Dev Server
This sample uses open-wc's es-dev-server for previewing the project without additional build steps. ES dev server handles resolving Node-style "bare" import specifiers, which aren't supported in browsers. It also automatically transpiles JavaScript and adds polyfills to support older browsers.
To run the dev server and open the project in a new browser tab:
npm run serve
There is a development HTML file located at /dev/index.html
that you can view at http://localhost:8000/dev/index.html.
Editing
If you use VS Code, we highly reccomend 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 reccomend 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 Polymer Project's style. You can change this in .prettierrc.json
.
Prettier has not been configured to run when commiting files, but this can be added with Husky and and pretty-quick
. See the prettier.io site for instructions.
Static Site
This project includes a simple website generated with the eleventy static site generator and the templates and pages in /docs-src
. The site is generated to /docs
and intended to be checked in so that GitHub pages can serve the site from /docs
on the master branch.
To enable the site go to the GitHub settings and change the GitHub Pages "Source" setting to "master branch /docs folder".
To build the site, run:
npm run docs
To serve the site locally, run:
npm run docs:serve
To watch the site files, and re-build automatically, run:
npm run docs:watch
The site will usually be served at http://localhost:8000.
Alternate way of building static demo site
npx -p parcel npm run buildstatic
Bundling and minification
This starter project doesn't include any build-time optimizations like bundling or minification. We recommend publishing components as unoptimized JavaScript modules, and performing build-time optimizations at the application level. This gives build tools the best chance to deduplicate code, remove dead code, and so on.
For information on building application projects that include LitElement components, see Build for production on the LitElement site.
