The `uiDirs` option allows users to provide their own set of directories
with UI files, e.g. to provide a custom swagger-ui fork and a custom
set of style/font overrides:
explorer(app, {
uiDirs: [
path.resolve(__dirname, 'public'),
path.resolve(__dirname, 'node_modules', 'swagger-ui')
]
});
The existing option `swaggerDistRoot` is deprecated now.
This removes the hardcoded local `node_modules` lookup for swagger-ui,
which will break if the parent installs swagger-ui itself.
This is useful if, for example, the latest swagger-ui breaks
loopback-explorer, and the parent project wants to install a fixed
version in its root.
This completes the migration of swagger processing from strong-remoting
into loopback-explorer.
Added additional usage instructions to README and additional testing.
This commit introduces a change into where resource descriptors
are hosted. They are no longer hosted under /swagger, but instead
under the same path as the Explorer, wherever that may be.
Generally, the resource listing will be available at
/explorer/resources, and api listings under
/explorer/resources/{modelName}.
Loopback-explorer loads express and strong-remoting from loopback's
`node_modules` folder. This fails when one of those dependencies
was installed to the parent project, e.g. as a peer dependency.
app/node_modules
+- express # <- express installed as peer to loopback
+- loopback
+- node_modules # <- express is not there
As of this commit, loopback-explorer will retry the `require()` call
without `loopback/node_modules` prefix if the first require fails.
1. `require('loopback/node_modules/express')`
2. `require('express')`
The change should fix (some of) unit-tests failures in
