openui5-dist

The NPM package contains the OpenUI5 framework and the script for building the NPM package. This package does not modify openui5 content, it just packages it for distribution via NPM.

OpenUI5 is the open-source part of the SAPUI5 framework which is used to build SAP Fiory applications. You can freely use OpenUI5 in your projects.

Use openui5-dist NPM packageit to build OpenUI5 application

Install openui5-dist package in your project

npm install openui5-dist

And then serve the OpenUI5 file from NPM package.

Example for express

const app = express();

//Path to example application
app.use(express.static("./public/"));

//Path to openui5
app.use(express.static("./node_modules/openui5-dist/dist/"));

//Start web server
app.listen("3000", function() {
	    console.log("Listening on port %d", "3000");
});

Example application

I have created the example application which uses OpenUI5 framework packaged by the openui5-dist package.

To use the application clone repository

git clone https://github.com/norbertvolf/openui5-dist-example.git

Install dependencies

cd openui5-dist-example
npm install

Run web server

npm start

And open the http://localhost:3000/index.js in your browser;

Use it to build your own OpenUI5 distribution

You can use index.js to prepare OpenUI5 distribution and then use it. The script clone openui5 repository to the working directory and then build the OpenUI5. When OpenUI5 is ready It copies the OpenUI5 files to the dist directory of the project and You can use npm publish to upload the openui5 files to the npm registry.

I have tested the script only on my linux machine.

Create your own openui5 distribution

git clone [email protected]:norbertvolf/openui5-dist.git
cd openui5-dist
npm install

Update version in the package.json by corresponding version of OpenUI5 framework and run the script for building the OpenUI5 distribution.

node ./bin/publish.js
