This repo has been merged to AmpersandTarski/prototype and should no longer be updated.
Frontend framework for prototyping Ampersand applications; implemented in Angular
Significant amount of code is generated using the Ampersand compiler based upon the ADL model files. The generated frontend module is contained in the /src/app/generated folder.
To update the generated application, when ADL model files have changed or when changes are made to template, you can run the following command:
./ampersand proto --no-backend --frontend-version Angular --proto-dir ./src/app/generated --crud-defaults cRud <path-to-application-entry-script>.adl
E.g. to generate an application for the ProjectAdministration project (which is available as test asset), run:
./ampersand proto --no-backend --frontend-version Angular <path-to-application-entry-script>.adl --proto-dir ./src/app/generated --crud-defaults cRud .\test\assets\project-administration\model\ProjectAdministration.adl
The required Ampersand compiler with support for generating new frontend module is still work in progress. You can download a compiler version from Github here. Use a version >= v4.7.6.
A step by step guide on how to install and run this project can be found in docs/README.md
Inside the dev container, use the dev-container configuration to serve the application: ng serve -c dev-container.
This is needed because the dev-container needs a different proxy configuration; forwarding /api to http://host.docker.internal:80 instead of http://localhost:80.
To have a backend running at port 80 for the frontend to connect to, deploy an Ampersand prototype application. E.g. the Project Administration application.
