E-Bikes Lightning Web Components Sample Application

E-Bikes is a sample application that demonstrates how to build applications with Lightning Web Components and integrate with Salesforce Experiences. E-Bikes is a fictitious electric bicycle manufacturer. The application helps E-Bikes manage their products and reseller orders using a rich user experience.

Learn more about this app by completing the Quick Start: Explore the E-Bikes Sample App Trailhead project.

This sample application is designed to run on Salesforce Platform. If you want to experience Lightning Web Components on any platform, please visit https://lwc.dev, and try out our Lightning Web Components sample application LWC Recipes OSS.

Installing E-Bikes using a Scratch Org

1. Set up your environment. Follow the steps in the Quick Start: Lightning Web Components Trailhead project. The steps include:

   • Enable Dev Hub in your Trailhead Playground
   • Install Salesforce CLI
   • Install Visual Studio Code
   • Install the Visual Studio Code Salesforce extensions, including the Lightning Web Components extension

2. If you haven't already done so, authorize your hub org and provide it with an alias (myhuborg in the command below):

   sfdx auth:web:login -d -a myhuborg
   

3. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/trailheadapps/ebikes-lwc
   cd ebikes-lwc
   

4. Create a scratch org and provide it with an alias (ebikes in the command below):

   sfdx force:org:create -s -f config/project-scratch-def.json -a ebikes
   

5. Push the app to your scratch org:

   sfdx force:source:push
   

6. Assign the ebikes permission set to the default user:

   sfdx force:user:permset:assign -n ebikes
   

7. Assign the Walkthroughs permission set to the default user:

   sfdx force:user:permset:assign -n Walkthroughs
   

8. Import sample data:

   sfdx force:data:tree:import -p ./data/sample-data-plan.json
   

9. Publish the Experience Cloud site:

   sfdx force:community:publish -n E-Bikes
   

10. Deploy metadata for the Experience Cloud guest user profile:

    sfdx force:mdapi:deploy -d guest-profile-metadata -w 10
    

11. Open the scratch org:

    sfdx force:org:open
    

12. In Setup, under Themes and Branding, activate the Lightning Lite theme.

13. In App Launcher, select the E-Bikes app.

Installing E-Bikes using a Developer Edition Org or a Trailhead Playground

Follow this set of instructions if you want to deploy the app to a more permanent environment than a Scratch org. This includes non source-tracked orgs such as a free Developer Edition Org or a Trailhead Playground.

Make sure to start from a brand-new environment to avoid conflicts with previous work you may have done.

1. Clone this repository:

   git clone https://github.com/trailheadapps/ebikes-lwc
   cd ebikes-lwc
   

2. Authorize your Trailhead Playground or Developer org and provide it with an alias (mydevorg in the command below):

   sfdx auth:web:login -s -a mydevorg
   

3. Enable Experiences with the following steps:

   1. In your org, in Setup, select Settings, under Digital Experiences.
   2. Click the Enable Digital Experiences checkbox
   3. Enter a domain name for your experience site. Remember this value as you’ll use it later in this step.
   4. Make sure that your domain name is available by clicking Check Availability.
   5. Click Save then Ok.
   6. Navigate back to Settings in Setup.
   7. Under Experience Management Settings, enable Enable ExperienceBundle Metadata API.

4. Configure the Experience Cloud site metadata file with the following steps:

   1. Edit the force-app/main/default/sites/E_Bikes.site-meta.xml file.
   2. Replace the value between the <siteAdmin> tags with your Playground username.
   3. Replace the value between the <siteGuestRecordDefaultOwner> tags with your Playground username.
   4. Replace the value between the <subdomain> tags with your domain.
   5. Save the file.

5. Remove the Product custom field from the Case object with the following steps:

   1. In Setup, click the Object Manager tab.
   2. Click on the Case object.
   3. Click Fields & Relationships.
   4. Locate the Product picklist field and click Delete from the row menu.
   5. Confirm deletion by clicking Delete.

6. Deploy the App with these steps:

   1. Run this command in a terminal to deploy the app.

      sfdx force:source:deploy -p force-app
      

   2. Assign the ebikes permission set to the default user.

      sfdx force:user:permset:assign -n ebikes
      

   3. Import some sample data.

      sfdx force:data:tree:import -p ./data/sample-data-plan.json
      

   4. Publish the Experience Cloud site.

      sfdx force:community:publish -n E-Bikes
      

   5. Deploy metadata for the Experience Cloud guest user profile:

      sfdx force:mdapi:deploy -d guest-profile-metadata -w 10
      

   6. If your org isn't already open, open it now:

      sfdx force:org:open
      

   7. In Setup, under Themes and Branding, activate the Lightning Lite theme.

   8. In App Launcher, select the E-Bikes app.

Optional Installation Instructions

This repository contains several tools and scripts that are relevant if you want to integrate modern web development tooling to your Salesforce development processes, or to your continuous integration/continuous deployment processes.

To benefit from these developer tools, you must:

1. install a Node.js LTS version
2. install the Node project dependencies with by running npm install in a terminal.

For reference, the full list scripts and dependencies and can be found in package.json.

Code Formatting

Prettier is a code formatter used to ensure consistent formatting across your code base. The .prettierignore and .prettierrc files provided as part of this repository control the behavior of the Prettier formatter.

To run Prettier from the command line, run npm run prettier.

To use Prettier with Visual Studio Code, install this extension from the Visual Studio Code Marketplace.

Code Linting

ESLint is a popular JavaScript linting tool used to identify stylistic errors and erroneous constructs. The .eslintignore file is provided as part of this repository to exclude specific files from the linting process in the context of Lightning Web Components development.

To run ESLint from the command line, run npm run lint.

To use ESLint with Visual Studio Code, install this extension from the Visual Studio Code Marketplace. The extension provides a code overlay that help you identify linting issues quickly.

Pre-commit Hook

We use Husky and lint-staged to set up a pre-commit hook that enforces code formatting and linting by running Prettier and ESLint every time you git commit changes.

Prettier and ESLint will automatically run every time you commit changes. The commit will fail if linting errors are detected in your changes.

Lightning Web Component Tests

Jest is the testing library that we use to test our Lightning web components. More precisely, we use a Jest wrapper library to run LWC tests. These tests are run on your local machine or in CI, not in Salesforce.

To run LWC tests from the command line, run npm test.

UI Tests

We use UTAM with WebdriverIO to run UI tests on our app. We run end-to-end tests on the Product Explorer page with force-app/test/utam/page-explorer.spec.js.

Follow these steps to run UI tests:

1. Make sure that the Salesforce CLI is connected to an active org by running:

   sfdx force:org:open

2. Compile the UTAM page objects with this command:

   npm run test:ui:compile

3. Prepare login information for your UI tests with this command:

   npm run test:ui:generate:login

4. Run UI tests with this command:

   npm run test:ui

Note: if the test runner fails to open Chrome programmatically, update the chromedriver dependency to the latest version in package.json then, run npm install and npm run test:ui again.

Code Tours

Code Tours are guided walkthroughs that will help you understand the app code better. To be able to run them, install the CodeTour VSCode extension.
