container-views

@fluid-example/app-integration-container-views

Dice Roller is a basic example that has a die and a button. Clicking the button re-rolls the die and persists the value in the root SharedDirectory.

This implementation demonstrates plugging the container into a standalone application, rather than using the webpack-fluid-loader environment that most of our packages use. This implementation relies on Tinylicious, so there are a few extra steps to get started. We expect the container to respond with a mountable view that we can use for rendering.

Getting Started

You can run this example using the following steps:

1. Run npm install and npm run build:fast -- --nolint from the FluidFramework root directory.
   • For an even faster build, you can add the package name to the build command, like this: npm run build:fast -- --nolint @fluid-example/app-integration-container-views
2. In a separate terminal, start a Tinylicious server by following the instructions in Tinylicious.
3. Run npm run start from this directory (examples/hosts/app-integration/container-views) and open http://localhost:8080 in a web browser to see the app running.

Testing

    npm run test:jest

For in browser testing update ./jest-puppeteer.config.js to:

  launch: {
    dumpio: true, // output browser console to cmd line
    slowMo: 500,
    headless: false,
  },

Data model

Dice Roller uses the following distributed data structures:

• SharedDirectory - root
