This is the "complete" Stripes "platform". It consists simply of an
NPM package.json that
specifies the version of @folio/stripes-core and of any Stripes
modules you wish to make available as part of this platform
to generate client bundles along with a utility for generating
module descriptors for each Stripes module.
Please see the quick start guide for more information.
The stripes.config.js is a configuration for a specific tenant. In
general, a platform supports multiple tenants, each of which may
include a different set of the available modules. You can copy the
stripes.config.js file to be your stripes.config.js.local
configuration file.
The yarn.lock and *-install.json files in this repository can be
used to build a FOLIO system with the components that represent the
latest, compatible set of FOLIO releases. For an example of how to deploy such a
system, see the
Single Server Deployment Guide.
Descriptions of key files and key branches of this repository and how to change them are in the Release Procedures and in DevOps - Install Backend Module.
The snapshot branch is for the next flower release, Trillium (R1-2026), it is a work in progress.
Only the two latest releases are supported with critical bug and security fixes:
- Branch R1-2025-okapi and the R1-2025-okapi… tags of the Sunflower release
- Branch R2-2024 and the R2-2024-… tags of the Ramsons release
Older releases have reached end-of-life and are out of support.
Install platform dependencies
$ yarn config set @folio:registry https://repository.folio.org/repository/npm-folio/
$ yarn install
Note: A sharp-libvips NPM dependency is not fully compatible with Nodejs v16 and will fail 'yarn install'. To resolve this, set the following environment variable prior to running 'yarn install' when Nodejs version is v16+:
CXXFLAGS="-std=c++17"
To build and serve platform-complete in isolation for development purposes, run the "start" package script.
$ yarn start
The default configuration assumes an Okapi instance is running on http://localhost:9130 with tenant "diku". The options --okapi and --tenant can be provided to match your environment.
$ yarn start --okapi http://localhost:9130 --tenant diku
To build a platform-complete bundle for production, modify stripes.config.js with your Okapi and tenant, then run the "build" script, passing it the name of the desired directory to place build artifacts.
$ yarn build ./output
See the build and serve command reference in stripes-cli for a list of available options.
Integration tests require a running Okapi. The default configuration expects Okapi running on http://localhost:9130 with tenant "diku". To build and run integration tests for platform-complete with these defaults, run the test-int script.
$ yarn test-int
To view tests while they are run, provide the --show option.
$ yarn test-int --show
To skip the build step and run integration tests against a build that is already running, provide the URL.
$ yarn test-int --url https://folio-testing.dev.folio.org/
As a convenience, --local can be used in place of --url http://localhost:3000 for running tests against a development server that has already been started.
$ yarn test-int --local
Regression tests for the entire platform and its apps can be run with the "test-regression" script. This will invoke both cross-module tests defined in this platform's repository as well as all tests defined for the individual apps.
$ yarn test-regression --url https://folio-testing.dev.folio.org/
The test-int package script, when combined with the --run option, can be used for running specific tests for the platform and/or apps. Use WD (working directory) when referencing platform tests, otherwise use the module app module name.
Example running "loan_renewal" test in platform-complete:
$ yarn test-int --run WD:loan_renewal
Example running "new_user" test in ui-users:
$ yarn test-regression --run users:new_user
The included Dockerfile allows for building a container that serves the stripes platform using Nginx. Pass in the Okapi URL and tenant ID as build arguments. The defaults are shown below:
docker build -f docker/Dockerfile --no-cache=true \
--build-arg OKAPI_URL=http://localhost:9130 \
--build-arg TENANT_ID=diku -t stripes .
The nginx server name can be passed to the container at runtime. The default value is localhost if no argument is passed. For example, to have nginx use 127.0.0.1 as the server name:
docker run stripes 127.0.0.1
