JavaScript Style Guide

OperaSampo

The Sampo-UI framework is being developed by the Semantic Computing Research Group (SeCo) at the Aalto University, Finland. See the research page for more information plus instructions and tutorials.

Design philosophy

Sampo-UI offers a comprehensive "starting base" of a full stack JavaScript web application. Therefore it is not possible to include Sampo-UI as separate component into an existing application. The most convenient way to build a new user interface using Sampo-UI is to read the documentation provided below, fork this repository, and start developing from there.

Requirements

Note for Linux users: if your home directory is mounted from a network drive, using the Node Version Manager for installing Node.js highly recommended.

Installation

Local development

Install the dependencies specified in package.json (this command needs to be run only once, as long as you don't modify the dependencies):

npm install

Run client and server concurrently:

npm run dev

Deploy with Docker

These example commands can be used to deploy the server at http://localhost:3006/ in production mode. Production mode means in this case that the server listens for API requests at URLs beginning with http://localhost:3006/api/v1/... and additionally serves the client (React app) at http://localhost:3006/. The API docs can be found at http://localhost:3006/api-docs/.

Note that in development mode Webpack is used for serving the client, and the server is used only for handling API requests.

The build argument API_URL must be provided.

Build

docker build --build-arg API_URL=http://localhost:3006/api/v1 -t sampo-web-app-image .

Run

docker run -d -p 3006:3001 --name sampo-web-app sampo-web-app-image

Run with password protected endpoint

docker run -d -p 3006:3001 -e SPARQL_ENDPOINT_BASIC_AUTH=your_password --name sampo-web-app sampo-web-app-image

Upgrade

docker build --build-arg API_URL=http://localhost:3006/api/v1 -t sampo-web-app-image .
docker stop sampo-web-app
docker rm sampo-web-app
docker run -d -p 3006:3001 --name sampo-web-app sampo-web-app-image

Developer guide

Coding style

The JavaScript style guide, linter, and formatter module (named "standard" in package.json) is installed by default as development dependency. Do not install or create any additional style definitions or configurations. Instead, install an appropriate plugin for your text editor. If there are no plugins available for your favorite editor, it is highly recommended to switch into a supported editor.

Documentation

Client

Sampo-UI's React components are documented here using Storybook.

Here is a list of the main JavaScript libraries on which the Sampo-UI client is built on:

Backend

The API provided by Sampo-UI's backend includes routes for the following search paradigms: faceted search, full text search, and federated full text or spatial search. The API is described using the OpenAPI Specification. The same specification is used for both documenting the API, and validating the API requests and responses.

An API documentation with example configuration can been seen here.

Sampo-UI's backend is based on the following JavaScript libraries:
