HTML Development samples

Hi,

The OOB HTML applications are written in Angular, and will support a modular architecture that you can extend using plugins. This feature is under development for version 8.2 so we don't have the exact details ready to be published at this time. What I can say though is that this plugin architecture is based on Angular, and will not work with other frameworks.

However, you can write your own HTML app with the framework of your choice. What is important is that you have a JavaScript package  (which can come from Angular, React, or other frameworks). You can then load that package into the system, and the API server serves the files to the client.

As for samples in HTML programming in 8.1, you can take a look at the source code for the Operations Support Portal which is included with the OneIM setup.

Thanks
Hanno

Where in the OneIM setup would one find this?

Hi,

It is part of the HTML5 workspace. The HTML5 development guide describes how to set up a workspace on a development machine, specifically this section:

support.oneidentity.com/.../2

So I've now installed VS Code, opened the installation folder, connected the database..

The documentation states:

Creating a development folder

[57327003]
Could not find 'imx-api.tgz' within 'ApiResources_fjlkdsf93jlfsf041l2kfa'

Any help would be greatly appreciated..

Hello Henrik,

I advice you to make sure that the connection to the database is established first (Go to One Identity Manager: connect to database).

If this step is successful you can define a development folder of your choice. Click on setup development folder and specify it´s location.

Do you see the folder imx-modules under the development folder in Visual Studio Code?

The error you get "Could not find 'imx-api.tgz' states that libraries are missing.

May you run the command "Npm install" in the Terminal area of Visual Studio Code? Make sure you are in the directory of the development folder and run the command. It should download the libraries. Otherwise let us know what happens.

Make also sure your network is not blocking the download.

Hope it helps!

The term 'npm' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program.

The development folder is currently empty.

Alright, so I've now copied nodejs.zip to the root of my drive and unzipped it. From the terminal in VS Code I am now running npm install but not much is happening. Still says that imx-api.tgz is unavailable..

What sould the npm install do?

Powershell doesn´t recognize the cmdlet. Please open Powershell and check the execution policy: Get-ExecutionPolicy. 

Then run:

set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted

And try again.

Also,

Do you have imxclient.exe setup under Configuration in Visual Studio Code?

Changed execution policy and I have configured the imx-client.

Ran npm install, and I now have two folders, QER and QBM..

That's it?

It still can't find the imx-api..

When do you get the error? When you try to compile the Apps?

I have not even tried to develop anything yet..the error pops up in 10 seconds interval, I guess..

I guess API client is not compiled. Follow this steps:

Open Powershell. Go to the directory where One Identity Manager is installed. Run the cmdlets:

.\imxclient.exe

.\imxclient.exe repl

connect

compile-api

Now you can compile the database using DBCompiler. Do you still see the error in Visual Studio Code?

Powershell didn't work, weren't even able to write any specific imx-commands. But command prompt did the trick.

Sadly my development system is not connected to the internet, so I guess it won't work then since I can't be connected to both internet and my development env..
