Hi @jonathanchristison, the pfCanvasEditor uses jquiery-ui:
Click on the [Add Item] button to open up the Canvas Toolbox. jqyoui-draggable & jqyoui-droppable are used when one drags an Item from the toolbox and drops it onto the Canavs. Please test this component. -thanks!
@dtaylor113 Thanks for that, turns out it totally didn't work 😛 or rather was producing a load of errors in the console, the drag and drop functionality still seemed to work but I'm not sure how.
I discovered the jquery-ui package itself doesn't have any "prebuilt" elements and if your not using their AMD approach its pretty difficult to import the relevant .js files in the ngdocs task. I started to look into either calling the grunt build task in the jquery-ui package or crowbarring requirejs into the toplevel grunt file but both of those approaches seemed really hacky.
The jquery-ui-dist package is the drop-in replacement i had originally presumed jquery-ui to be and does avoid the original external git request the shim repository was introducing.
As i mentioned i was able to eliminate any errors in the firefox console, however i was also unable to break the drag & drop functionality with my original changes so i'm not sure how to best test this, visually its identical.
I just downloaded and ran your branch, the pfCanvasEditor seems to be working fine with the new jquery lib. No errors shown in my console (Chrome).
So are you saying it works in your app which consumes angular-patternfly but doesn't work in the ngDocs example?
It was working in ngDocs but i'm guessing could of been a browser cache issue, it didn't seem to break the functionality but the console was full of errors, I fixed that with my last commit which uses jquery-ui-dist
opposed to jquery-ui
.
To give a bit more of a background this is to fix build issues internally with hawtio @akieling will probably be able to tell you more about how angular-patternfly is used in hawtio upstream and its fuse fork but the point is to reduce external fetches which are almost impossible to override within npm/yarn -
npm sill tryHTTPS attempting to clone git+https://github.com/components/jquery-ui.git
The aim of this PR is to remove this external fetch with minimal impact on users, you're obviously in a better position to judge if this change is too disruptive
Cloned this PR branch, running locally with jquery-ui-dist
, pfCanvasEditor's drag-n-drop seems to working as expected, no errors, so I'd be inclined to accept this PR if he helps resolve your npm/yarn issues.
Ran the branch locally and works fine for me as well.
Description
This PR replaces the components/jqueryui shim repository with jquery official npm package, this fixes issues where airgap build infrastructure might be used as the inclusion of
components/jqueryui
will make an external request to be made to github -components-jqueryui@1.12.1 (git://github.com/components/jqueryui.git#44ecf3794cc56b65954cc19737234a3119d036cc)
Briefly looking at the code jquery-ui should be a drop in replacement but I'm lacking any examples to test this, if there are any test projects where i might be able to identify any visual or breaking changes please let me know and I'll try and verify the changes
