Installation

Important

ASU specific CSS styling is provided by the theme. ASU-KE/UDS-WordPress-Theme >= v1.0 contains the required styling.

• Upload the plugin files to the /wp-content/plugins/unity-carousels directory, or install the compressed plugin flies through the WordPress plugins screen directly.
• Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' screen in WordPress

Development

• .npmrc: Add your authToken from Github to access the @asu package registry. Do not commit token.

Install resources

• npm i: installs wp-scripts, the build tools to scaffold the block, and glidejs default resources available to copy into /resources.

Clone submodule resources

There is a command in Git to clone both the top level project and all submodules. If a developer cloned directly from Github, submodule files will not have been pulled. To get the rest of the files:

• git pull --recurse-submodules pulls latest submodule files
• git submodule update --init set submodule files to the main repo commit. Developers must track submodule commits in the main project, to keep compiling builds across team members in sync.

Install submodule package resources

After cloning, the unity package being used needs dependencies installed.

• cd packages/component-carousel
• npm i --legacy-peer-deps

glide.js ASU UDS styles

The ASU specific CSS styling is contained in glide.theme.scss in @asu/asu-unity-stack/packages/component-carousel. Currently that SCSS file needs to be compiled in the theme for the complete experience. The carousel is functional without this SCSS file.

Update default glide.js assets

• npm i
• copy glide.min.js and glide.core.min.css to resources/glidejs

Update resources folder: ASU Unity Stack carousel packages

When an update for component-carousel from UDS is released, a developer can update the resources folder and build the new carousel.

• the ke-dev branch is intended to mirror latest updates from @asu/asu-unity-stack. If needed, clone the ke-dev fork from Github to a directory outside of this project, and merge upstream changes to Github.
• cd resources/asu-unity-stack/
• double check git branch has switched from unity-carousels project branch to git branch ke-dev: git status
• git pull get latest updates
• Change directory back to the top level unity-carousels project branch, commit the submodule directory update modified: resources/asu-unity-stack (modified content).
• build latest
