About
This is a flow editing tool designed for use within the Flows Module suite of messaging tools but can be adopted for use outside of that ecosystem. The editor is a React component built with TypeScript and bundled with Webpack. It is open-sourced under the AGPL-3.0 license.
Technologies
Requirements
Before running the application, make sure you have installed the following tools on your machine:
Set up
- Open the terminal and clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/weni-ai/floweditor.git
- Enter the created directory
cd floweditor
- Install the dependencies:
yarn install
How to develop
To run the flow editor in development mode, it requires an asset server. This is what is responsible for serving up flow definitions, groups, contact fields, etc. This project includes an in memory asset server for testing purposes. These are the same lambda functions used by our Netlify preview site.
First, compile and run the local version for a faux asset server.
yarn lambda
Then you are ready to fire up the development server for the editor.
yarn start
Localization
The project is fully localized using i18next
and leans on react-i18next
to integrate it inside components. To generate new keys and defaults for localization, we use i18next-scanner
. Use the yarn command scan
to update localization keys.
yarn scan
Running Tests
This project uses Jest for unit/snapshot testing and react-testing-library where we can. The project has some older more complex tests that use Enzyme. Typescript and Jest are integrated via ts-jest.
yarn test
Note that running this locally will automatically multithread based on how many cores your box has. It will also run it in the interactive watch mode. This mode is what you can use to easily run only failed tests or update snapshots. When this same command is run on CI, the tests will be run without watch mode automatically. You can also run tests locally without watch mode
yarn test --watchAll=false
Formatting
Prettier is used to keep formatting consistent. We use huskey pre-commit hooks to run prettier on every commit. It is possible to run prettify against the entire project without commits. This is only necessary if the project conventions change.
yarn run prettify
Publishing
To publish, simply invoke the desired semver -- patch, minor or major. This will version the package and travis will publish it to the npm repository automatically.
yarn version --patch
git push --tags
Development Workflow
| Command | Description | |--|--| | yarn install | Install dependencies | yarn lambda | Compile and run the local version for a faux asset server at localhost:6000 | yarn start | Serve with hot reload at localhost:3000 | yarn build | Build for production with minification | yarn build --report | Build for production and view the bundle analyzer report | yarn test | Run all tests
Open-Source Governance
The Weni Platform open source projects are governed by @weni-ai. Weni opens all its software parts under terms of an open-source license to reach potential users and partners mainly. Secondly, Weni wants to reach developers by building a community for some pieces that are more reusable in other businesses or software projects, such as NLP models or tools. Besides that, the openness of our software is also related to building trust by enabling our external stakeholders to audit the security of our software.

- Join #dev for help from the community to development issues
Contributing
We are looking for collaboration from the Open Source community! There's so much we want to do, including but not limited to: enhancing existing applications with new features, optimizing the NLP tasks and algorithms involved that boost accuracy, new communication channels and integrations.
