Creating a new App

Install Frappe.js

yarn add frappejs

FrappeJS comes with built in rollup config for your files

Build

There are 2 files that get built for the Desk single page application

/dist/js/bundle.js
/dist/css/style.css

Your rollup.config.js should look like:

module.exports = [
	require('frappejs/config/rollup.config.style.js'),
	require('frappejs/config/rollup.config.app.js')
]

Create a basic app

index.html

The UI for the single page app (desk) will be built inside the body element, so you just need to have an empty body element, and link your JS bundle in index.html

Sample index.html

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
	<meta charset="UTF-8">
	<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
	<title>Document</title>
	<link href="/dist/css/style.css" rel="stylesheet">
</head>
<body>
	<script src="/dist/js/socket.io.js"></script>
	<script src="js/bundle.js"></script>
</body>
</html>

For development setup

Clone frappejs in the same folder as your app, since you will be developing frappejs on the side.

Link frappejs

# make frappejs linkable
cd frappejs

yarn link
yarn link frappejs

# link frappejs in all
cd ../myapp
yarn link frappejs

# install libs
yarn

server.js

Create your server file server.js

const server = require('frappejs/server');

server.start({
    backend: 'sqlite',
    connection_params: {db_path: 'test.db'},
    static: './'
});

index.js

In your client file you will have to import all your controllers and init them.

frappejs/client lib will initialize your server and user interface with the Desk.

Example starting point for a to-do app:

const client = require('frappejs/client');
const todo = require('frappejs/models/doctype/todo/todo.js');

// start server
client.start({
    server: 'localhost:8000',
}).then(() => {
    frappe.init_controller('todo', todo);

    frappe.desk.add_sidebar_item('Home', '#');
    frappe.desk.add_sidebar_item('New ToDo', '#new/todo');

    frappe.router.default = '/list/todo';
    frappe.router.show(window.location.hash);
});

Start

To start the app and build webpack simultaneously you can use a Procfile

server: nodemon server.js
watch: node_modules/.bin/rollup -c --watch

You can use any procfile handler like node-foreman to start the processes.

yarn global add node-foreman

Then

nf start
