Installation

Prerequisites

The design system components are distributed through the npm ecosystem and can only be installed through the npm command. Npm requires node.js and the components needs node.js 8 or higher.

Installing modules

To install a module make sure you have a package.json file in the root of your project folders. (You can generate one by running npm init.) Inside your working folder install any module and pancake will make sure you have all assets ready to use.

Run npm install @gov.au/body to install the body module. To install several modules, chain them like:

npm install @gov.au/body @gov.au/header @gov.au/footer @gov.au/buttons

An even better experience is using Syrup. Install it globally via npm install -g @gov.au/syrup. More info coming soon.

Checklist and browser support

We use the below checklist to ensure new modules or updates to existing modules have a certain level of quality:

Checklist

General checks

Semantic HTML and non semantic test?
No JavaScript fallback?
SVG fallback, functional without SVG?
IE9, IE10, IE11 legacy test
IE8 functional test

Accessibility checks

Accessibility colour contrast
Keyboard accessible
Tested with screen reader
Accessibility expert review

CSS / Sass

Never nest anything that is not either an overwrite or a child element.
font-family and text color on elements that don’t require body
Using AU-space() with unit for spacing everywhere but in font-sizes; no magic numbers
No hardcoded colors, use $AU-color- or $AU-colordark- vars.
Sass focus mixin AU-focus() or AU-focus( 'dark' )
Using AU-fontgrid() for font-size and line-height to snap typography to the grid.
Print style sheets

JavaScript

var AU = AU || {}; in top?
Each module has it’s own name-space prefixed with AU e.g.: AU.modulename.function1, AU.modulename.function2
Keep public API small, use private functions where you can
Export out private function for tests only if( typeof module !== 'undefined' )
Export entire module in the end: if( typeof module !== 'undefined' ) { module.exports = AU; } so react can use it.
Provide sane defaults for parameters where you can
Add jest unit tests where you can
Document public API in the readme.

package.json

dependencies - peerDependencies check
Delete/enable js object and settings for pancake plugins

Tests

Visual tests have been built into each module and can be seen in either of the README.md files of each module or in the listing above. We have also integrated pa11y for accessibility testing and are using jest for javascript tests.

Run all tests with the npm test script:

npm run test
