WooCommerce Packages

Currently we have a set of public-facing packages that can be dowloaded from npm and used in external applications. Here is a non-exhaustive list.

  • @woocommerce/components: A library of components that can be used to create pages in the WooCommerce dashboard and reports pages.
  • @woocommerce/csv-export: A set of functions to convert data into CSV values, and enable a browser download of the CSV data.
  • @woocommerce/currency: A class to display and work with currency values.
  • @woocommerce/date: A collection of utilities to display and work with date values.
  • @woocommerce/navigation: A collection of navigation-related functions for handling query parameter objects, serializing query parameters, updating query parameters, and triggering path changes.
  • @woocommerce/tracks: User event tracking utility functions for Automattic based projects.

Working with existing packages

  • You can make changes to packages files as normal, and running pnpm start will compile and watch both app files and packages.
  • ⚠️ Add any dependencies to a package using pnpm add from the package root.
  • ⚠️ Make sure you're not importing from any other files outside of the package (you can import from other packages, just use the import from @woocommerce/package syntax).
  • Don't change the version in package.json.
  • Label your PR with the Packages label.
  • See the Package Release Tool for instructions on how to release packages.

Creating a new package

Most of this is pulled from the Gutenberg workflow.

To create a new package, add a new folder to /packages, containing…

  1. package.json based on the template:

    {
    	"name": "@woocommerce/package-name",
    	"version": "1.0.0-beta.0",
    	"description": "Package description.",
    	"author": "Automattic",
    	"license": "GPL-2.0-or-later",
    	"keywords": [ "wordpress", "woocommerce" ],
    	"homepage": "https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce/tree/trunk/packages/js/[_YOUR_PACKAGE_]/README.md",
    	"repository": {
    		"type": "git",
    		"url": "https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce.git"
    	},
    	"bugs": {
    		"url": "https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce/issues"
    	},
    	"main": "build/index.js",
    	"module": "build-module/index.js",
    	"react-native": "src/index",
    	"publishConfig": {
    		"access": "public"
    	}
    }
  2. .npmrc file which disables creating package-lock.json file for the package:

    package-lock=false
    
  3. README.md file containing at least:

    • Package name
    • Package description
    • Installation details
    • Usage example
  4. A src directory for the source of your module, which will be built by default using the pnpm run turbo:build command. Note that you'll want an index.js file that exports the package contents, see other packages for examples.

  5. Add the new package name to packages/js/dependency-extraction-webpack-plugin/assets/packages.js so that users of that plugin will also be able to use the new package without enqueuing it.
