BCMS - Plugin Starter

This project will help you to develop a BCMS plugin. Plugin, in context of the BCMS, is a software which is packed in a specific way and has direct access to internal API of the BCMS backend and the UI.

Getting started

• You will need to have Node, NPM, Docker and Docker Compose installed on your system,
• Create empty directories db and uploads in the root of the project (this directories will be used by the backend),
• To start a development server run: docker-compose up
• IMPORTANT: application will be available on port 8080, ports which are printed in the console are for internal us. We are working on making this more clear and abstracting internal ports.
• Have in mind that if you change anything outside of the src directory, you will need to run docker-compose build

Bundling plugin

When you are done with development and you are ready to use the plugin in the production, run npm run bundle. This will create package of your plugin which you can copy to the BCMS project or upload it to the instance using BCMS Cloud Dashboard.
