1 year ago Has this Repo been abandoned? Awful experience, after much hacking moving files around, and messing with symlinks we managed to get this API to mostly work. But wow, days of messing around on Windows machines. It seems if you install the repo directly into your global node packages folder under @adobe. Yarn install --force (cause there are issues with jest versions, we can safetly ignore), then move the contents of the packages folder one level higher under the @adobe folder (We did this using npm v8.19.3 & Yarn 1.22.19). We also found that NVM screws up the installation and requires a symlink created under the nvm folder to point to the global npm packages folder.... Like I said painful experience.
We are currently attempting to build a container to attempt to use the UXP build and test processes from a Pipeline. A lot of energy has gone into that, it would be nice if Adobe could provide a working one.
I've got to say that if you are planning on going down the path of UXP development, So far we have found UXP underwhelming as a whole. There is only support for Photoshop and Indesign, with no indication of when and if other products in the suite will be supported (This makes it impossible to provide serious commercial offerings). The sandbox that UXP operates in is a highly hobbled browser DOM, simple things like the DOM history object are not available, making most page routing libraries useless. We developed using svelte, and eventually got it to work, but retrospectively think that react would have been easier, the Adobe crowd seem strangely, highly oppinionated about your tech stack. Oh and if you get confused about why your controls aren't working, there are a very limited set of the Spectrum controls that are supported, and there documentation as to the supported ones are not up to date. There appears to be no developer licensing option. The examples are pretty light on but you can grok a bit of knowledge out of there.
