Extension Bundles ​

Extension bundles can be used when an extension consists of a combination of several related sub-extensions which are supposed to be installed together. They allow you to combine and share dependencies between one or more extensions and are developed using JavaScript / Node.js.

Create a Bundle ​

When scaffolding your CaseFusion extension, select the bundle type. This will create a new empty bundle.

Entries ​

In your bundle's package.json file, the directus:extension object has an entries array that describes all of the items contained within the bundle.

Example of an entry:

{
	"type": "interface",
	"name": "my-interface",
	"source": "src/my-interface/index.ts"
}

{
	"type": "interface",
	"name": "my-interface",
	"source": "src/my-interface/index.ts"
}

Entries in a bundle are located within a src directory in the bundle.

Add New Extensions To a Bundle ​

Create New ​

1. Navigate to your bundle extension directory in your terminal.
2. Use the npm run add command and select an extension type.

This will scaffold a new blank extension for you to work on.

Add Existing ​

1. Move your extension directory within your bundle's src directory.
2. Add an entry to the bundle's package.json.

Remove an Extension From a Bundle ​

1. Delete the extension directory from your src directory.
2. Remove the entry from your package.json.
