This is the monorepo for the blocks that make up Outbound Feeds (OBF).
This repo contains the OBF Blocks, utilities and dependencies. It is used by the Arc I/O team to develop OBF. Clients do not need this repo to use OBF or run OBF locally. We have made this repo available so you can see the code and to copy blocks if you would like to create custom feeds.
The steps to download and build your local OBF repo are here
You can find more information about custom development in ALC
All of the published blocks are located in the blocks directory. Each block mirrors the structure of the component in the fusion repo. For example, a feature block will have a features directory and a source block will have a sources directory. More details can be found here
All content source blocks start with feeds-source. If the block has the word output in the name it is an output type. All other blocks are feature blocks. The xml output type can be found in the utils directory. It is not included in the blocks.json, instead it's loaded via the repos package.json. More details can be found here
There are a set of common utilities used in the blocks. These are located in the utils directory. Each is it's own NPM package that the blocks add as dependencies. If you copy a block to your repo, be sure to add any dependencies required by the block to your OBF repo's package.json. More details can be found here
If you would like to create a custom block, you can start with one of the existing OBF blocks or create something new. More details can be found here
preconstruct is used to handle the dependency of packages depending on one another. It's set as postinstall and will likely run. If not follow the below:
After npm i
Run npm run postinstall
> postinstall
> preconstruct dev
🎁 info project is valid!
🎁 success created links!
That should resolve any missing module/import errors from dependencies in the utils called in blocks.
