Vatom™ Studio CLI

Start with authenticating

varius auth

To create a new view:

varius view new Follow the steps:

1. view name
2. view description
3. businessId

Currently there isn’t a smooth way to mock vAtoms locally. The below manual changes need to be made:

1. Open App.json
2. Replace export default withObject(App) with export default App
3. You will also need to mock an object with whatever its configurable viewArgs will be

Replace

  get viewArgs() {
    const stateKey = "insert_view_uri"; /* example - card::varius.view:varius.io:pxbPne2LjfMvz9X1qb4X3 */
    return (this.props.object.state || {})[stateKey];
  }

With

  get viewArgs() {
    return {
      backgroundImage: "some-url",
      titleSequence: "",
      buttonColor: {
        r: 255,
        g: 255,
        b: 255,
        a: 0
      }
    };
  }

And reference them like below:

  <img src={this.viewArgs.backgroundImage} alt="bg" />

Publishing a view

When you’re ready to publish, make sure to revert the above changes you made and run a build. yarn build || npm build varius view publish There will be a view.json file that generates in the source code with an entrypoint reference (This is the view url).

  "name": "my-varius-app",
  "description": "my varius app description",
  "entrypoint": "https://views.varius.io/8479681b-4987-4c13-b99f-75828df8c277/index.html",
