What's Mes papiers?

...

Hack

📌 Note: we recommend to use Yarn instead of NPM for package management. Don't hesitate to install and use it for your Cozy projects, it's now our main node packages tool for Cozy official apps.

Install

Hacking the Cozy Mes papiers app requires you to setup a dev environment.

You can then clone the app repository and install dependencies:

$ git clone https://github.com/cozy/mespapiers.git
$ cd mespapiers
$ yarn install

📌 If you use a node environment wrapper like nvm or ndenv, don't forget to set your local node version before doing a yarn install.

Cozy's apps use a standard set of npm scripts to run common tasks, like watch, lint, test, build…

Run it inside a Cozy using Docker

You can run your application inside a Cozy thanks to the cozy-stack docker image:

# in a terminal, run your app in watch mode with a docker running Cozy
$ cd mespapiers
$ yarn start
# in an other terminal, run the docker image
$ cd mespapiers
$ yarn stack:docker:dev

After the build and the docker image launched, your app is now available at http://mespapiers.cozy.tools:8080.

Note: By default, HMR (Hot Module Replacement) is enabled on your front application. To have it working, we have disabled our CSP (Content Security Policy) when running yarn stack:docker:dev. This is not the configuration we'll have in a production environnement. To test our app in real conditions, build your application by running yarn build and launch the docker image with the yarn stack:docker:prod command.

Living on the edge

Cozy-ui is our frontend stack library that provides common styles and components accross the whole Cozy's apps. You can use it for you own application to follow the official Cozy's guidelines and styles. If you need to develop / hack cozy-ui, it's sometimes more useful to develop on it through another app. You can do it by cloning cozy-ui locally and link it to yarn local index:

git clone https://github.com/cozy/cozy-ui.git
cd cozy-ui
yarn install
yarn link

then go back to your app project and replace the distributed cozy-ui module with the linked one:

cd cozy-drive
yarn link cozy-ui

Cozy-client-js is our API library that provides an unified API on top of the cozy-stack. If you need to develop / hack cozy-client-js in parallel of your application, you can use the same trick that we used with cozy-ui: yarn linking.

Tests

Tests are run by jest under the hood. You can easily run the tests suite with:

$ cd mespapiers
$ yarn test

📌 Don't forget to update / create new tests when you contribute to code to keep the app the consistent.


Services

expiration:

This service consists in checking every day between 1pm & 3pm if qualified documents are about to expire
(expiry date - offset of document type)

Developing

In prod env, triggers are created during the installation of the app. In local env, triggers must be created & launched manually:

To execute the trigger in local development, follow this steps:

  • You will need to define 2 environment variables:

    $ export COZY_URL='http://cozy.localhost:8080'
    $ export COZY_CREDENTIALS=$(cozy-stack instances token-app cozy.localhost:8080 mespapiers)
    
  • Launch once the trigger manually (create upstream if needed)

    yarn triggers:launch
    
  • Launch the service manually as much as necessary

    yarn service
    

Models

The Cozy datastore stores documents, which can be seen as JSON objects. A doctype is simply a declaration of the fields in a given JSON object, to store similar objects in an homogeneous fashion.

Cozy ships a built-in list of doctypes for representation of most of the common documents (Bills, Contacts, Files, ...).

Whenever your app needs to use a given doctype, you should:

  • Check if this is a standard doctype defined in Cozy itself. If this is the case, you should add a model declaration in your app containing at least the fields listed in the main fields list for this doctype. Note that you can extend the Cozy-provided doctype with your own customs fields. This is typically what is done in Konnectors for the Bill doctype.
  • If no standards doctypes fit your needs, you should define your own doctype in your app. In this case, you do not have to put any field you want in your model, but you should crosscheck other cozy apps to try to homogeneize the names of your fields, so that your doctype data could be reused by other apps. This is typically the case for the Konnector doctype in Konnectors.

What's Cozy?


Cozy is a platform that brings all your web services in the same private space. With it, your webapps and your devices can share data easily, providing you with a new experience. You can install Cozy on your own hardware where no one's tracking you.

Localization

Localization and translations are handled by Transifex, which is used by all Cozy's apps.

As a translator, you can login to Transifex (using your Github account) and claim an access to the app repository. Locales are pulled when app is build before publishing.

As a developer, you must configure the transifex client, and claim an access as maintainer to the app repository. Then please only update the source locale file (usually en.json in client and/or server parts), and push it to Transifex repository using the tx push -s command.
