HZ Core is HZ's library of components, hooks, and utilities for React!

What kinda stuff is in here, and how do i use it in my project?

Found a bug? Check through the current issues for any open related bugs. If none are found, open a new bug report.

Need a new component? Check through the docs for an existing component or the issues tracker for any current component requests. If none are found, create a new Github issue describing the new component before creating a new package.

Open a new feature request for any new features to add, whether it's new functionality for a component, or new deployment strategy for packages. Remember to first check through the docs or existing issues for any existing context on this feature.

You will need:

• Node 8
• Yarn

1. Pull down project from Github
2. Run yarn
3. Run lerna bootstrap

HZ Core is structured as a monorepo. We use a number of tools and conventions to keep things organized and interoperable. Much of this work is done for us through the magic of Lerna and Yarn workspaces.

Uses:

• Lerna
• Docz
• Typescript
• Yarn

We use Conventional Commits to help automate Semantic Versioning of our packages, and to help in generating a useful Changelog. We opt to use a GitHub-inspired Gitmoji-based commit type. This reduces the amount of character count required for specifying type, and also gives a (subjectively) easier visual guide to the types of changes commits are making.

NOTE: While it's possible to compose your commit messages any way you want, it is recommended that you run yarn commit, which will use a Commitizen CLI workflow to help you write your message, rather than git commit.

As such, a commit message should take the form:

<type> [(scope)] <subject>

[body]

Where <angle segments> are required, and [bracket segments] are optional.

Some examples:

🚨 squash linting errors

➕ (@hzdg/scroll-monitor) add react-dom@^16.3.1

🐛 (@hzdg/scroll-monitor) fix wheel delta and velocity

The quickest way to create a new package is to use our lil CLI wizard:

yarn create-package

This wizard will ask a few questions about the package, then generate the basic file structure for the package.

If creating or modifying a package manually, try to adhere to the following conventions:

• it should live under packages/<type>, where type is one of the existing package types. If your package doesn't seem to belong, see Creating a New Package Type.
• The package directory name should be dash-case.
• The package name (in package.json) should be dash-case.
• The package name should be namespaced @hzdg/<package-name>.
• if the package exports a React Component, its name should be the dash-case version of the ComponentName, i.e., component-name.
• if the package exports a React hook, its name should be the dash-case version of the useThisHook, i.e. use-this-hook
• The package should include a CHANGELOG.md
• The package registry should be defined in package.json as:

  "publishConfig": {
    "registry": "https://npm.pkg.github.com/",
    "@hzdg:registry": "https://npm.pkg.github.com/"
  },

• The package repository should be defined in package.json as:

  "repository": {
    "type": "git",
    "url": "ssh://[email protected]/hzdg/hz-core.git",
    "directory": "packages/<type>/<package-name>"
  },

If the existing package types (any of the directories under packages) do not seem to fit the package you would like to add a new type can be created by doing the following:

• make a new directory at packages/<new-type>, where new-type is the dash-case name for the type of packages it will contain.
• Create a yarn workspace in the root package.json:

  "workspaces": [
    "packages/<new-type>/*",
  ]

• Create a lerna package in the root lerna.json:

  "packages": [
    "packages/<new-type>/*",
  ]

We use Lerna and a GitHub Action that will automatically detect changes, version, and publish to GitHub Packages, so publishing is a simple as git push.

Still, it can be daunting to try to cut a release without knowing if it is going to work. To embolden us, hzcore has a smoke test to check if the new package versions are likely to publish successfully.

NOTE: This smoke test is also run as part of the GitHub Publish workflow, So if it fails there, new versions won't be published. For peace-of-mind, it is a good idea to run it locally before pushing to master.

To run the publish smoke tests:

yarn test-publish

It will take a few mins to run, but if it succeeds, you can feel pretty good that the next published versions will be ok.

If you want to poke around with the packages that have been installed in the test project, you can run:

yarn test-publish --open [code|atom|...etc]

This will do everything the normal test does, except it won't run the tests. Instead, it will open the test project using the specified command (code, by default).

You can then edit any of the test suites that were generated and try to test the packages with more rigor. This is an easy way to get a proper installed package playground to do some extra vetting of packages before a publish.

By default, Lerna handles versioning and publishing together as part of the lerna publish flow. Lerna knows about conventional commits, and it will use the change log since the last version of a package to decide what the next version should be.

If you want to set the version yourself, you can do so by running lerna version and lerna publish separately.

See lerna changed and lerna version for more.

As noted above, all you should really need to do to publish new package versions is git push to master. However, it is also possible to publish manually by running lerna publish.

If the versioning step succeeds (or if you ran lerna version separately), but lerna publish fails, you can try running npm publish in each package.

See lerna publish

• Render Props are a useful technique for components that are used mostly for state management where it does not care about the shape of the children. Read more about render props here.
  • Note: Remember that both this.props and this.state can share a common variable, so be conscious of which object you pass first into the render prop.

We use Jest to test things. To run tests, simply run yarn test. If you want to keep your tests running while you work, run yarn test --watch.

We use Docz to view all components. Check out their info on writing MDX for general information.

1. Run yarn develop
2. Navigate to http://localhost:3000

Docs are built and published to Netlify automatically via Netlify Build, so all you should need to do to publish is a simple git push.
