This is a repo that demonstrates an example of BYOC components using best practices.

Getting Started

  1. To run the NextJS server just execute the following command:

    npm run dev

  2. Then visit demo page in the browser:

    http://localhost:3000

Enabling BYOC in your existing app

XMC JSS app:

If your app uses JSS (for xmc next.js), BYOC will be already pre-configured upon the app generation. Simply add the components you want in byoc/index.client.tsx and index.server.tsx. Be mindful that at the time being, jss does not support async components

Regular Next.js app

  1. Copy byoc folder from this repo to your app directory

  2. In layout.tsx add to the top of the file:

            import * as FEAAS from "@sitecore-feaas/clientside/react";
        import "./byoc";

    And inside the layout tree itself:

    <FEAAS.ExternalComponentBundle />

  3. Render the component directly or as a part of FEAAS component as in demo/page.tsx

Integrating Rendering Host for Sitecore Components

  1. Copy preview-component folder into your app
  2. In Sitecore Components app, go to Settings/Rendering Host and put in the url to that page, e.g. https://my-website.com/preview-component
  3. Now in the component Builder you will be able to use BYOC components and use Preview feature to see what they look like inside Sitecore components.
