How to generate public files for use in production?

[sheeshmohsin]

I am not able to generate dante.css, dante.js, dante-vendors.js for use in a separate app, however I am able to use it with the demo cloned in local.

Also there are not guidelines on how to generate those?

Is there any docs regarding that?

P.S: I am not a node developer, and want to use it in my python project, just as css, and js urls, is that possible?

sure, just use the files from dist folder clone repo and run yarn install && yarn build if you want to use the scss source check the this wiki https://github.com/michelson/dante2/wiki/Rails-styles-integration

Hi,

Just one another query, I ran yarn install && yarn build , but not able to find any dist folder after running the command. where can I find it?

[sheeshmohsin]

Any updates on this issue?

[michelson]

Hi @sheeshmohsin , I've prepared a PR for builds but it's not ready . In the meantime the yarn build on master branch will create files on /docs , you can use them as are for production use.

[sheeshmohsin]

Hi @michelson I tried the copying the files generated in /docs in my python app, but in frontened its throwing this error.

[michelson]

ouch! no idea

maybe you could test it running yarn run and see if it's working on development server?

[sheeshmohsin]

Yeah, Its running fine on development server after running yarn run or npm start, but not after picking up the file for use in another app.

[sheeshmohsin]

So, what I got for now, If I want to use in separate app, I need to run a separate server of dante2, and use the urls of dante server for fetching css and js, is it?

[michelson]

check the latest version ( 0.3.1 ) it comes with a better distribution module support. Also check the example on how to use es6 modules at https://github.com/michelson/dante2-tests let me know if you got more issues with this.

cheers

I finally able to use the js and css file built in amd directory. Below are the steps which I did and it starts working, may be someone can use this :-

1. Comment out the externals part in webpack/webpack.config.js in export default as shown below :-

   // externals: [ // { // react: { // root: 'React', // commonjs2: 'react', // commonjs: 'react', // amd: 'react', // }, // }, // { // 'react-dom': { // root: 'ReactDOM', // commonjs2: 'react-dom', // commonjs: 'react-dom', // amd: 'react-dom', // }, // }, // ],

2. Then Run npm run build and collect these files from amd directory DanteStyles.css , Dante2.js, dante-vendors.js , and you are ready to go.
