This project includes different scenarios to connect to twilio client
Current Situation:
- We are tweaking the CDN bundles by exporting a variable named 'conversations' to make it more used as a ESM, this way the issue is addressed But this is not recommended approach as we shouldn't tweak the core and sometimes we get random issues with chat
Failure Scenarios:
-
We have tried the original CDN bundle comes in CommonJS format and can't be used directly as specified in the documentation below, https://www.npmjs.com/package/@twilio/conversations/v/2.1.0
Added these scenairos in the code, so that when you run the application you could see the errors listed
-
We also tried using the @twilio/conversations 2.1.0 using the NPM package as is specified in the ESM format as per the documentation below, https://www.npmjs.com/package/@twilio/conversations/v/2.1.0
This way the code can't recognise the Client library being imported within the code
Expectation:
- Ideal expectation is we need to get rid of the CDN bundles of the usage of @twilio/conversations
**PS: we also tried the same steps with the latest library versions of @twilio/conversations, still we receive the same error. **
Install dependencies:
npm i
This sample uses the TypeScript compiler to produce JavaScript that runs in modern browsers.
To build the JavaScript version of your component:
npm run build
To watch files and rebuild when the files are modified, run the following command in a separate shell:
npm run build:watch
Both the TypeScript compiler and lit-analyzer are configured to be very strict. You may want to change tsconfig.json
to make them less strict.
This sample uses modern-web.dev's @web/test-runner for testing. See the modern-web.dev testing documentation for more information.
Tests can be run with the test
script, which will run your tests against Lit's development mode (with more verbose errors) as well as against Lit's production mode:
npm test
For local testing during development, the test:dev:watch
command will run your tests in Lit's development mode (with verbose errors) on every change to your source files:
npm test:watch
Alternatively the test:prod
and test:prod:watch
commands will run your tests in Lit's production mode.
This sample uses modern-web.dev's @web/dev-server for previewing the project without additional build steps. Web Dev Server handles resolving Node-style "bare" import specifiers, which aren't supported in browsers. It also automatically transpiles JavaScript and adds polyfills to support older browsers. See modern-web.dev's Web Dev Server documentation for more information.
To run the dev server and open the project in a new browser tab:
npm run serve
There is a development HTML file located at /dev/index.html
that you can view at https://localhost:8000/dev/index.html. Note that this command will serve your code using Lit's development mode (with more verbose errors). To serve your code against Lit's production mode, use npm run serve:prod
.
If you use VS Code, we highly recommend the lit-plugin extension, which enables some extremely useful features for lit-html templates:
- Syntax highlighting
- Type-checking
- Code completion
- Hover-over docs
- Jump to definition
- Linting
- Quick Fixes
The project is setup to recommend lit-plugin to VS Code users if they don't already have it installed.
Linting of TypeScript files is provided by ESLint and TypeScript ESLint. In addition, lit-analyzer is used to type-check and lint lit-html templates with the same engine and rules as lit-plugin.
The rules are mostly the recommended rules from each project, but some have been turned off to make LitElement usage easier. The recommended rules are pretty strict, so you may want to relax them by editing .eslintrc.json
and tsconfig.json
.
To lint the project run:
npm run lint
Prettier is used for code formatting. It has been pre-configured according to the Lit's style. You can change this in .prettierrc.json
.
Prettier has not been configured to run when committing files, but this can be added with Husky and pretty-quick
. See the prettier.io site for instructions.
This project includes a simple website generated with the eleventy static site generator and the templates and pages in /docs-src
. The site is generated to /docs
and intended to be checked in so that GitHub pages can serve the site from /docs
on the master branch.
To enable the site go to the GitHub settings and change the GitHub Pages "Source" setting to "master branch /docs folder".
To build the site, run:
npm run docs
To serve the site locally, run:
npm run docs:serve
To watch the site files, and re-build automatically, run:
npm run docs:watch
The site will usually be served at https://localhost:8000.
Note: The project uses Rollup to bundle and minify the source code for the docs site and not to publish to NPM. For bundling and minification, check the Bundling and minification section.
As stated in the static site generation section, the bundling and minification setup in the Rollup configuration in this project is there specifically for the docs generation.
We recommend publishing components as unoptimized JavaScript modules and performing build-time optimizations at the application level. This gives build tools the best chance to deduplicate code, remove dead code, and so on.
Please check the Publishing best practices for information on publishing reusable Web Components, and Build for production for building application projects that include LitElement components, on the Lit site.
