We maintain a set of HTML templates (written in Nunjucks) for our pattern library. Those same templates could be useful for downstream consumers such as the Buildit website, so we should publish them as an @buildit/gravity-ui-nunjucks
NPM package.
A while ago we decided to work towards that by:
Converting to a Lerna monorepo, so that we could have code for multiple NPM packages in one repoSplit out the templates + pattern library code into its own package- Setup the necessary conversions and builds to publish the templates to the NPM package repo
This issue is to cover the last and final step.
Describe the solution you'd like
First off, it's best to wait for the migration to Fractal (#264) to complete, since that affects the structure of the templates.
Once that's in place, we'll need to figure out how to make the templates usable without Fractal (which has it's own @..
shorthand naming scheme for importing/including other templates). Possible options are:
- Export copies of the templates and find'n'replace the shorthand names with relative file paths. (Fractal's own docs have an example of something like this)
- Or, write a custom Nunjucks loader, which can "understand" the same
@...
shorthand. - There may be other options, or the above could be combined somehow. In any case, this needs some more research
With a solution to the above in place, we should then get semantic-release
enabled and configured properly for the @buildit/gravity-ui-nunjucks
package and get it published.
