ember-alexandria

Test Dependabot Code Style: Prettier License: LGPL-3.0

The frontend for the alexandria document management service

Compatibility

  • Ember.js v3.20 or above
  • Ember CLI v3.20 or above
  • Node.js v12 or above

Installation

ember install ember-alexandria

Then add the following lines to your app/styles/app.scss:

@import "ember-uikit";
@import "ember-alexandria";

Usage

Mount the engine with the following command in your app/router.js:

this.mount("ember-alexandria", { path: "/" });

To pass the required services update your app.js:

constructor(...args) {
  super(...args);

  this.engines = {
    emberAlexandria: {
      dependencies: {
        services: ["store", "intl", "notification"],
      },
    },
  };
}

Configuration

You can configure if the models should be filtered by meta and what the default meta value for a model should be. Each configuration field is scoped by model name (check out the example to understand what is meant by this).

For this you need to create a service extending from ember-alexandria/services/config which you then have to pass as config to alexandria.

This is needed since an engine does not merge its env into the host apps. See ember-engines/ember-engines#176 for more info.

If you mounted alexandria with query params this.mount("ember-alexandria", {path: "/:your_query_param/documents/"}); you can access the query params in you config service (as shown in the example above) with this.alexandriaQueryParams.your_query_param.

If you need to access the alexandriaQueryParams inside your config check that you define modelMetaFilters and/or defaultModelMeta as getters. If you don't need alexandriaQueryParams you can ignore the getters and just define the field as usual.

Example:

import ConfigService from "ember-alexandria/services/config";

export default class AlexandriaConfigService extends ConfigService {
  get modelMetaFilters() {
    return {
      document: [
        { key: "your_meta_field", value: this.alexandriaQueryParams.your_query_param
},
      ],
    };
  }

  get defaultModelMeta() {
    return {
      document: {
        your_meta_field: this.alexandriaQueryParams.your_query_param,
      },
      file: {
        is_alexandria_file: true
      }
    };
  }
}

As the Alexandria backend returns IDs for the user and groups you can add a resolver from your project to turn the IDs to something the user can relate to.

Just replace the identity functions on the config service.

Example:

import ConfigService from "ember-alexandria/services/config";
import { inject as service } from "@ember/service";

export default class AlexandriaConfigService extends ConfigService {
  @service store;
  
  resolveUser(id) { return this.store.peekRecord("user", id); }
  resolveGroup(id) { return this.store.peekRecord("group", id); }
}
