wisemapping-frontend

This is a WIP migration from legacy wisemapping into a modern web development project with multiple improvements.

This monorepo uses lerna and contains all the packages that compose the wisemapping frontend.

Getting started

Make sure you have NodeJs installed (version compatible with package.json engine), and yarn installed (npm i -g yarn).

nvm use
yarn install
yarn bootstrap

Please refer to each package's Readme.md for anything specific to the package.

If you want to contribute, please check out CONTRIBUTING.md.

Scripts

Each package might provide the following scripts.
You can run these for all packages by running it from the root folder. Alternatively you can run it for a specific package by passing the --scope option.

build

Production build

yarn build

lint

run eslint

yarn lint

playground

start a devServer with some browsable examples

yarn playground --scope @wisemapping/web2d yarn playground --scope @wisemapping/mindplot

test

run all the tests

yarn test

run only integration tests

yarn test:integration

run only unit tests

yarn test:unit

Image Snapshot Testing

We use cypress-image-snapshot for snapshot testing. This is a relatively cheap way of identifying behavior changes based on page screenshots. See visual testing docs for more information.

When a test that contains a matchImageSnapshot call is run, it compares the snapshot to the corresponding one in the snapshots directory. If Any change is detected, the test will fail, and the diff can be found in the cypress/snapshots/*/__diff_output__ folder. If the change is intentional, we should "accept" those changes by updating the snapshot and include it in the commit.

There is a caveat where colors, fonts or ui may differ depending on the host machine running the tests.

A workaround for this is to run the tests using docker. Make sure you have docker and docker-compose installed.

Run snapshot tests: docker-compose -f docker-compose.snapshots.yml up
If anything changed, and the change was intentional, update the snapshots and then commit the new images to source control.
Update snapshots: docker-compose -f docker-compose.snapshots.update.yml up
