VCL Frontend

Frontend for Virtual Coding Lab (VCL).

Also includes codemirror for future updates.

Prerequisites

• Node.js
  • Recommended: Current LTS Version
  • See also: NVM
• NPM (comes with Node.js)
• Angular CLI
  • npm install -g @angular/cli to install Angular CLI globally
• Webbrowser with Devtools

At the current state, there is no communication with the backend.
Later you also will need a local (or remote) connection to it, docs will be updated then.

First steps

1. Clone the project
   git clone git@mode.fh-joanneum.at:cola/vcl/frontend.git
2. Switch into directory
   cd frontend
3. Install node dependencies
   npm ci
4. Run Development server and open Browser on http://localhost:4200/
   ng serve

Development server

Run ng serve for a dev server. Navigate to http://localhost:4200/. The app will automatically reload if you change any of the source files.

Code scaffolding

Run ng generate component component-name to generate a new component. You can also use ng generate directive|pipe|service|class|guard|interface|enum|module.

Build

Run ng build to build the project. The build artifacts will be stored in the dist/ directory.

Running unit tests

Run ng test to execute the unit tests via Karma.

Running end-to-end tests

Run ng e2e to execute the end-to-end tests via a platform of your choice. To use this command, you need to first add a package that implements end-to-end testing capabilities.

Further help

To get more help on the Angular CLI use ng help or go check out the Angular CLI Overview and Command Reference page.

Draft chooser...

1. HeaderComponent.html (extend HTML) -> Dropdown = "Draft 1", "Draft 2", "Draft 3", ...
2. HeaderComponent.ts -> function "changeDraft(draft: string | number)" -> this.draftService.setDraft(draft)
3. (new) DraftService.ts ->

{
  public draftObs: Observable...
  private currentDraft: string | number
  public getDraft(): Observable<string | number> {
    return draftObs
  }
  public setDraft(draft: string | number) {
    draftObs.next(draft);
  }
}

4. WelcomeComponent.ts + WorkshopsComponent.ts -> use DraftService via Constructor
   1. draftService.getDraft()
   2. instance variable (e.g. "draft")
5. WelcomeComponent.html + WorkshopsComponent.html -> only display chosen draft ... *ngIf
