Using Pattern Lab
Refer to the core usage guidelines
Installation
As of Pattern Lab Node 3.0.0, installation of Editions is accomplished via the command line interface.
The below assumes a new directory and project is required. This is likely what you want to do if starting from scratch. You could also run this within an existing project. The CLI will ask you for the installation location.
- Open a terminal window and following along below:
mkdir new-project cd new-project npm create pattern-lab
If you get an error stating that
npx
is not installed, ensure you are onnpm 5.2.0
or later by runningnpm -v
or install it globally withnpm install -g npx
. Learn more about npx. - Follow the on-screen prompts to choose your Edition and a Starterkit should you want one.
- If you chose
edition-node
, new commands in the "scripts" will be added in yourpackage.json
. - If you chose
edition-node-gulp
, agulpfile.js
will be added to your project.
Notice that
@pattern-lab/cli
was installed as a depdendency. Learn how to further use the cli in your own project.
Ecosystem
