Front-end Use Cases

This section gives use cases examples on front-end plugin development.

Plugin advanced usage

This section contains advanced resources to develop plugins.

Inject design

The ExtendComponent allows you to inject design from one plugin into another.

Example

Let's say that you want to enable another plugin to inject a component into the top area of your plugin's container called FooPage;

Path — ./plugins/my-plugin/admin/src/containers/FooPage/actions.js.

import {
  ON_TOGGLE_SHOW_LOREM,
} from './constants';

export function onToggleShowLorem() {
  return {
    type: ON_TOGGLE_SHOW_LOREM,
  };
}

Path — ./plugins/my-plugin/admin/src/containers/FooPage/index.js.

import React from 'react';
import { connect } from 'react-redux';
import { bindActionCreators, compose } from 'redux';
import { createStructuredSelector } from 'reselect';
import PropTypes from 'prop-types';

// Import the ExtendComponent
import ExtendComponent from 'components/ExtendComponent';

// Utils
import injectReducer from 'utils/injectReducer';

// Actions
import { onToggleShowLorem } from './action'

import reducer from './reducer';

// Selectors
import { makeSelectShowLorem } from './selectors';

class FooPage extends React.Component {
  render() {
    const lorem = this.props.showLorem ? <p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing</p> : '';
    return (
      <div>
        <h1>This is FooPage container</h1>
        <ExtendComponent
          area="top"
          container="FooPage"
          plugin="my-plugin"
          {...props}
        />
        {lorem}
      </div>
    );
  }
}

FooPage.propTypes = {
  onToggleShowLorem: PropTypes.func.isRequired,
  showLorem: PropTypes.bool.isRequired,
};

function mapDispatchToProps(dispatch) {
  return bindActionCreators(
    {
      onToggleShowLorem,
    },
    dispatch,
  );
}

const mapStateToProps = createStructuredSelector({
  showLorem: makeSelectShowLorem(),
});

const withConnect = connect(mapDispatchToProps, mapDispatchToProps);
const withReducer = injectReducer({ key: 'fooPage', reducer });

export default compose(
  withReducer,
  withConnect,
)(FooPage);

Path — ./plugins/my-plugin/admin/src/containers/FooPage/reducer.js.

import { fromJS } from 'immutable';
import { ON_TOGGLE_SHOW_LOREM } from './constants';

const initialState = fromJS({
  showLorem: false,
});

function fooPageReducer(state= initialState, action) {
  switch (action.type) {
    case ON_TOGGLE_SHOW_LOREM:
      return state.set('showLorem', !state.get('showLorem'));
    default:
      return state;
  }
}

export default fooPageReducer;

Path — ./plugins/my-plugin/admin/src/containers/FooPage/selectors.js.

import  { createSelector } from 'reselect';

/**
* Direct selector to the fooPage state domain
*/

const selectFooPageDomain = () => state => state.get('fooPage');

/**
* Other specific selectors
*/

const makeSelectShowLorem = () => createSelector(
  selectFooPageDomain(),
  (substate) => substate.get('showLorem'),
);

export { makeSelectShowLorem };

That's all now your plugin's container is injectable!

Let's see how to inject a React Component from a plugin into another.

Create your injectedComponent

Path - ./plugins/another-plugin/admin/src/extendables/BarContainer/index.js;

import React from 'react';
import PropTypes from 'prop-types';

// Import our Button component
import Button from 'components/Button';

// Other imports such as actions, selectors, sagas, reducer...

class BarContainer extends React.Component {
  render() {
    return (
      <div>
        <Button primary onClick={this.props.onToggleShowLorem}>
          Click me to show lorem paragraph
        </Button>
      </div>
    );
  }
}

BarContainer.propTypes = {
  onToggleShowLorem: PropTypes.func,
};

BarContainer.defaultProps = {
  onToggleShowLorem: () => {},
};

export default BarContainer;

Tell the admin that you want to inject a React Component from a plugin into another

You have to create a file called injectedComponents.js at the root of your another-plugin src folder.

Path — ./plugins/another-plugin/admin/src/injectedComponents.js.

import BarContainer from 'extendables/BarContainer';

// export an array containing all the injected components
export default [
  {
    area: 'top',
    container: 'FooPage',
    injectedComponent: BarContainer,
    plugin: 'my-plugin',
  },
];

Just by doing so, the another-plugin will add a Button which toggles the lorem paragraph in the FooPage view.

Routeless container store injection

If you have a container which can be a child of several other containers (i.e. it doesn't have a route); you'll have to inject it directly in the ./plugins/my-plugin/admin/src/containers/App/index.js file as follows :

Path — ./plugins/my-plugin/admin/src/containers/App/index.js.

// ...
import fooReducer from 'containers/Foo/reducer';
import fooSaga from 'container/Foo/sagas';

import saga from './sagas';
import { makeSelectFoo } from './selectors';

// ...

export class App extends React.Component {
  render() {
    return (
      <div className={styles.app}>
        <Switch>
          {*/ List of all your routes here */}
        </Switch>
      </div>
    );
  }
}

// ...

function mapDispatchToProps(dispatch) {
  return bindActionCreators(
    {
    },
    dispatch
  );
}

const mapStateToProps = createStructuredSelector({
  // ...
});

const withConnect = connect(mapStateToProps, mapDispatchToProps);
// Foo reducer
const withFooReducer = injectReducer({ key: 'foo', reducer: fooReducer });
// Global reducer
const withReducer = injectReducer({ key: 'global', reducer });
// Foo saga
const withFooSaga = injectSaga({ key: 'foo', saga: fooSaga });
// Global saga
const withSaga = injectSaga({ key: 'global', saga });

export default compose(
  withFooReducer,
  withReducer,
  withFooSaga,
  withSaga,
  withConnect,
)(App);

Execute logic before mounting the plugin

You can execute a business logic before your plugin is being mounted.

Usage

To do this, you need to create bootstrap.js file at the root of your src plugin's folder. This file must contains a default functions that returns a Promise.

Example

In this example, we want to populate the left menu with links that will refer to our Content Types.

Path — ./app/plugins/content-manager/admin/src/bootstrap.js.

import { generateMenu } from 'containers/App/sagas';

// This method is executed before the load of the plugin
const bootstrap = (plugin) => new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
  generateMenu()
    .then(menu => {
      plugin.leftMenuSections = menu;

      resolve(plugin);
    })
    .catch(e => reject(e));
});

export default bootstrap;

Prevent plugin rendering

You can prevent your plugin from being rendered if some conditions aren't met.

Usage

To disable your plugin's rendering, you can simply create requirements.js file at the root of your src plugin's folder. This file must contain a default function that returns a Promise.

Example

Let's say that you want to disable your plugin if the server autoReload config is disabled in development mode.

Path — ./app/config/environments/development/server.json.

{
  "host": "localhost",
  "port": 1337,
  "autoReload": {
    "enabled": true
  },
  "cron": {
    "enabled": false
  }
}

You'll first create a request to check if the autoReload config is enabled.

Path — ./app/plugins/my-plugin/config/routes.json.

{
  "routes": [
    {
      "method": "GET",
      "path": "/autoReload",
      "handler": "MyPlugin.autoReload",
      "config": {
        "policies": []
      }
    }
  ]
}

Then the associated handler:

Path — ./app/plugins/my-plugin/controllers/MyPlugin.js.

const _ = require('lodash');
const send = require('koa-send');

module.exports = {
  autoReload: async ctx => {
    ctx.send({ autoReload: _.get(strapi.config.environments, 'development.server.autoReload', false) });
  }
}

Finally, you'll create a file called requirements.jsat the root of your plugin's src folder.

The default function exported must return a Promise. If you wan't to prevent the plugin from being rendered you'll have to set plugin.preventComponentRendering = true;. In this case, you'll have to set:

plugin.blockerComponentProps = {
  blockerComponentTitle: 'my-plugin.blocker.title',
  blockerComponentDescription: 'my-plugin.blocker.description',
  blockerComponentIcon: 'fa-refresh',
};

To follow the example above:

Path — ./app/plugins/my-plugin/admin/src/requirements.js.

// Use our request helper
import request from 'utils/request';

const shouldRenderCompo = (plugin) => new Promise((resolve, request) => {
  request('/my-plugin/autoReload')
    .then(response => {
      // If autoReload is enabled the response is `{ autoReload: true }`
      plugin.preventComponentRendering = !response.autoReload;
      // Set the BlockerComponent props
      plugin.blockerComponentProps = {
        blockerComponentTitle: 'my-plugin.blocker.title',
        blockerComponentDescription: 'my-plugin.blocker.description',
        blockerComponentIcon: 'fa-refresh',
        blockerComponentContent: 'renderIde', // renderIde will add an ide section that shows the development environment server.json config
      };

      return resolve(plugin);
    })
    .catch(err => reject(err));
});

export default shouldRenderCompo;

Customization

You can render your own custom blocker by doing as follows:

Path — ./app/plugins/my-plugin/admin/src/requirements.js.

// Use our request helper
import request from 'utils/request';

// Your custom blockerComponentProps
import MyCustomBlockerComponent from 'components/MyCustomBlockerComponent';

const shouldRenderCompo = (plugin) => new Promise((resolve, request) => {
  request('/my-plugin/autoReload')
    .then(response => {
      // If autoReload is enabled the response is `{ autoReload: true }`
      plugin.preventComponentRendering = !response.autoReload;

      // Tell which component to be rendered instead
      plugin.blockerComponent = MyCustomBlockerComponent;

      return resolve(plugin);
    })
    .catch(err => reject(err));
});

export default shouldRenderCompo;

Using React/Redux and sagas

If your application is going to interact with some back-end application for data, we recommend using redux saga for side effect management. This short tutorial will show how to fetch data using actions/reducer/sagas.

Constants declaration

Path — ./plugins/my-plugin/admin/src/containers/FooPage/constants.js

export const DATA_FETCH = 'MyPlugin/FooPage/DATA_FETCH';
export const DATA_FETCH_ERROR = 'MyPlugin/FooPage/DATA_FETCH_ERROR';
export const DATA_FETCH_SUCCEEDED = 'MyPlugin/FooPage/DATA_FETCH_SUCCEEDED';

Actions declaration

Path — ./plugins/my-plugin/admin/src/containers/FooPage/actions.js

import {
  DATA_FETCH,
  DATA_FETCH_ERROR,
  DATA_FETCH_SUCCEEDED,
} from './constants';

export function dataFetch(params) {
  return {
    type: DATA_FETCH,
    params,
  };
}

export function dataFetchError(errorMessage) {
  return {
    type: DATA_FETCH_ERROR,
    errorMessage,
  };
}

export function dataFetchSucceeded(data) {
  return {
    type: DATA_FETCH_SUCCEEDED,
    data,
  };
}

Reducer

We strongly recommend to use Immutable.js to structure your data.

Path — ./plugins/my-plugin/admin/src/containers/FooPage/reducer.js

import { fromJS, Map } from 'immutable';
import {
  DATA_FETCH_ERROR,
  DATA_FETCH_SUCCEEDED,
} from './constants';

const initialState = fromJS({
  data: Map({}),
  error: false,
  errorMessage: '',
  loading: true,
});

function fooPageReducer(state = initialState, action) {
  switch (action.type) {
    case DATA_FETCH_ERROR:
      return state
        .set('error', true)
        .set('errorMessage', action.errorMessage)
        .set('loading', false);
    case DATA_FETCH_SUCCEEDED:
      return state
        .set('data', Map(action.data))
        .set('error', false)
        .set('errorMessage', '')
        .set('loading', false);
    default:
      return state;
  }
}

export default fooPageReducer;

Sagas

Path — ./plugins/my-plugin/admin/src/containers/FooPage/sagas.js

import { LOCATION_CHANGE } from 'react-router-redux';
import { takeLatest, put, fork, call, take, cancel } from 'redux-saga/effects';

// Use our request helper
import request from 'utils/request';

// Actions
import { dataFetchError, dataFetchSucceeded } from './actions';
import { DATA_FETCH } from './constants';

export function* fetchData(action) {
  try {
    const requestUrl = `/baseUrl/${action.params}`;
    const opts = {
      method: 'GET',
    };

    // Fetch data
    const response = yield call(request, requestUrl, opts);

    // Pass the response to the reducer
    yield put(dataFetchSucceeded(response));

  } catch(error) {
    yield put(dataFetchError(error));
  }
}

// Individual export for testing
function* defaultSaga() {
  // Listen to DATA_FETCH event
  const fetchDataWatcher = yield fork(takeLatest, DATA_FETCH, fetchData);

  // Cancel watcher
  yield take(LOCATION_CHANGE);

  yield cancel(fetchDataWatcher);
}

export default defaultSaga;

N.B. You can use a selector in your sagas :

import { put, select, fork, call, take, cancel } from 'redux-saga/effects';
import { makeSelectUserName } from './selectors';

export function* foo() {
  try {
    const userName = yield select(makeSelectUserName());

    // ...
  } catch(error) {
    // ...
  }
}

function defaultSaga() {
  // ...
}

export default defaultSaga;

Selectors

Reselect is a library used for slicing your redux state and providing only the relevant sub-tree to a react component. It has three key features:

Computational power
Memoization
Composability

Creating a selector:

Path — ./plugins/my-plugin/admin/src/containers/FooPage/selectors.js

import { createSelector } from 'reselect';

/**
* Direct selector to the fooPage state domain
*/
const selectFooPageDomain = () => state => state.get('fooPage');

/**
 * Other specific selectors
 */

 const makeSelectLoading = () => createSelector(
   selectFooPageDomain(),
   (substate) => substate.get('loading'),
 );

/**
 * Default selector used by FooPage
 */

const selectFooPage = () => createSelector(
  selectFooDomain(),
  (substate) => substate.toJS()
);

export default selectFooPage;
export { makeSelectLoading };

Example

Path — ./plugins/my-plugin/admin/src/containers/FooPage/index.js

import React from 'react';
import { bindActionCreators } from 'redux';
import { connect, compose } from 'react-redux';
import PropTypes from 'prop-types';

// Main router
import { router } from 'app';

// Utils
import injectSaga from 'utils/injectSaga';
import injectReducer from 'utils/injectReducer';

// Actions
import { dataFetch } from './actions';
// sagas
import saga from './sagas';
// Selectors
import selectFooPage from './selectors';
// Reducer
import reducer from './reducer';

export class FooPage extends React.Component {
  componentWillReceiveProps(nextProps) {
    if (this.props.error !== nextProps.error && nextProps.error) {
      strapi.notification.error(nextProps.errorMessage);
    }
  }

  componentDidUpdate(prevProps) {
    if (prevProps.match.pathname !== this.props.pathname) {
      this.props.dataFetch(this.props.match.params.bar);
    }
  }

  render() {
    if (this.props.error) return <div>An error occurred</div>;

    return (
      <div>
        <h4>Data display</h4>
        <span>{this.props.data.foo}</span>
        <span>{this.props.data.bar}</span>
      </div>
    );
  }

  FooPage.propTypes = {
    data: PropTypes.object.isRequired,
    dataFetch: PropTypes.func.isRequired,
    error: PropTypes.bool.isRequired,
    errorMessage: PropTypes.string.isRequired,
    match: PropTypes.object.isRequired,
  };

  const mapStateToProps = selectFoo();

  function mapDispatchToProps(dispatch) {
    return bindActionCreators(
      {
        dataFetch,
      },
      dispatch
    );
  }

  const withConnect = connect(mapStateToProps, mapDispatchToProps);
  const withReducer = injectReducer({ key: 'fooPage', reducer });
  const withSagas = injectSaga({ key: 'fooPage', saga });

  export default compose(
    withReducer,
    withSagas,
    withConnect,
  )(FooPage);
}
