# Web Template Studio
|
||||
|
||||
Web Template Studio (WebTS) is a Visual Studio Code Extension that accelerates the creation of new Web apps using a wizard-based experience. The resulting Web application is well-formed, readable code that

- Front-end: React.js
|
||||
- Back-end: Node.js
|

|
||||
|
||||
## Features
|
||||
|
||||
Web Template Studio approaches web app creation using the following four attribute sets:
|
||||
|
||||
* **Project type**: First, what type of application are you building? We currently support one type: *Fullstack Application*.
|
||||
* **Frameworks**: Next, which frameworks do you want to use for your frontend and backend? We currently support one framework for frontend: *[React.js](https://reactjs.org/)* and one framework for backend: *[Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/)*.
|
||||
* **App pages**: To accelerate app creation, we provide a number of app page templates that you can use to add common UI pages into your new app. The current page templates include: *blank page*, common layouts (*e.g., master/detail) and pages that implement common patterns (*e.g., grid, list). Using the wizard, add as many of the pages as you need, providing a name for each one, and we'll generate them for you.
|
||||
* **Cloud Services**: Lastly, you specify which Azure cloud services you want to use, and we'll build out the framework for the services into your app including tagging 'TODO' items. Currently supported services cover storage (*Azure Cosmos DB*), and compute (*Azure Functions*).

Once you make the selections you want and click generate, you can quickly extend the generated code.
|
||||
|
||||
Note: Use VSCode light mode to view the extension. Running the extension in VSCode v1.31 ~~and above will currently result in non-rendering SVGs~~. This issue was [fixed on Feb.12, 2019](https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/68033).
|
||||
|
||||
# Prerequisites
|
||||
|
||||
[Git](https://git-scm.com/downloads), [Yarn](https://yarnpkg.com/en/docs/install#mac-stable), [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/download/) and [VSCode](https://code.visualstudio.com/updates/v1_31) must be installed prior to running the installation or build scripts.
|
||||
|
||||
In VSCode, install the [Azure Cosmos DB VSCode extension](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-azuretools.vscode-cosmosdb) because it is an extension dependency.
|
||||
|
||||
Install [Visual Studio Code Extensions CLI](https://code.visualstudio.com/api/working-with-extensions/publishing-extension#vsce) using the command `yarn add global vsce`.
|
||||
|
||||
Run the command
|
||||
Run the command
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
npm config set scripts-prepend-node-path true
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
to tell VSCode which Node version to run during the extension compilation (otherwise you'll get an error during the build process).

*If using Windows, use Git Bash*.

|

# Development Quick Start
|
||||
|
||||
Clone the repository and use (for Windows)
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
./build
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
to install dependencies, compile the client and the extension. Open `src/extension` using `VSCode` and press `F5` to run the extension. Use `Ctrl+Shift+P` to open VSCode's extension CLI and open the extension named `Web Template Studio`.
|
||||
|
||||
if compiling on Mac, try:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
bash build
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Developing for the Client
|
||||
|
||||
The client lives in the `src/client` directory. To run the client for development, navigate to `src/client` and use the command
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
yarn start
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
to begin development. The client was bootstrapped using [Create-React-App with TypeScript](https://facebook.github.io/create-react-app/docs/adding-typescript).

**EXCLAIMER: You cannot sideload the VSIX and build/run the extension through Extension Development Host (using `F5` on VSCode) at the same time or there will be naming conflicts. The VSIX should be uninstalled first.**
|
||||
|
||||
The installation script "createVsix" will build and install the extension for you. Use the command on Windows:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
./createVsix
|
||||
```
|

|

For Mac, use:

```
|
||||
bash createVsix
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
to avoid setting permissions for the script.
|
||||
|
||||
The script will package the extension into the root directory `/dist` folder. The vsix package can be distributed and installed by anyone who has VSCode using the command in the extension directory:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
code --install-extension [extensionName].vsix
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
`wts.vsix` is the default extensionName.
|
||||

||||
Alternatively, copy the extension into your extensions directory. For Windows, it is `%USERPROFILE%\.vscode\extensions`. For Mac/Linux, it is `~/.vscode/extensions` (By Default).

## Running the client in the VSCode Extension
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
To see any changes made on the client within VSCode, run the instructions shown in the `Quick Start` section to rebuild the client and the extension. The resulting changes should appear in VSCode when the extension runs.
|
||||
|
||||
Rebuilding the client is required because the client is injected into a [VSCode Webview](https://code.visualstudio.com/api/extension-guides/webview) using the production build of the client.
