This clarifies that jobs.autoRun only *runs* already-queued jobs. It does not queue the jobs for you.
Also adds an e2e test as this functionality had no e2e coverage
### What?
1. Adds logic to automatically update the `importMap.js` file with the
project name provided by the user.
2. Adds an updated version of the `README.md` file that we had when this
template existed outside of the monorepo
([here](https://github.com/payloadcms/plugin-template/blob/main/README.md))
to provide clear instructions of required steps.
### Why?
1. The plugin template when installed via `npx create-payload-app` asks
the user for a project name, however the exports from `importMap.js` do
not get updated to the provided name. This throws errors when running
the project and prevents it from building.
2. The `/dev` folder requires the `.env.example` to be copied and
renamed to `.env` - the project will not run until this is done. The
template lacks instructions that this is a required step.
### How?
1. Updates
`packages/create-payload-app/src/lib/configure-plugin-project.ts` to
read the `importMap.js` file and replace the placeholder plugin name
with the name provided by the users. Adds a test to
`packages/create-payload-app/src/lib/create-project.spec.ts` to verify
that this file gets updated correctly.
2. Adds instructions on using this template to the `README.md` file,
ensuring key steps (like adding the `.env` file) are clearly stated.
Additional housekeeping updates:
- Removed Jest and replaced it with Vitest for testing
- Updated the base test approach to use Vitest instead of Jest
- Removed `NextRESTClient` in favor of directly creating Request objects
- Abstracted `getCustomEndpointHandler` function
- Added ensureIndexes: true to the mongooseAdapter configuration
- Removed the custom server from the dev folder
- Updated the pnpm dev script to "dev": "next dev dev --turbo"
- Removed `admin.autoLogin`
Fixes#12198
Updates the plugin template and adds it to the monorepo
Includes:
* Integration testing setup
* Adding custom client / server components via a plugin
* The same building setup that we use for our plugins in the monorepo
* `create-payload-app` dynamically configures the project based on the
name:`dev/tsconfig.json`, `src/index.ts`, `dev/payload.config.ts`
For example, from project name: `payload-plugin-cool`
`src/index.ts`:
```ts
export type PayloadPluginCoolConfig = {
/**
* List of collections to add a custom field
*/
collections?: Partial<Record<CollectionSlug, true>>
disabled?: boolean
}
export const payloadPluginCool =
(pluginOptions: PayloadPluginCoolConfig) =>
/// ...
```
`dev/tsconfig.json`:
```json
{
"extends": "../tsconfig.json",
"exclude": [],
"include": [
"**/*.ts",
"**/*.tsx",
"../src/**/*.ts",
"../src/**/*.tsx",
"next.config.mjs",
".next/types/**/*.ts"
],
"compilerOptions": {
"baseUrl": "./",
"paths": {
"@payload-config": [
"./payload.config.ts"
],
"payload-plugin-cool": [
"../src/index.ts"
],
"payload-plugin-cool/client": [
"../src/exports/client.ts"
],
"payload-plugin-cool/rsc": [
"../src/exports/rsc.ts"
]
},
"noEmit": true
}
}
```
`./dev/payload.config.ts`
```
import { payloadPluginCool } from 'payload-plugin-cool'
///
plugins: [
payloadPluginCool({
collections: {
posts: true,
},
}),
],
```
