Create a brand-assets folder at the root of your repository Move your public assets into this new folder. You should have something that looks like :

    │       └── assets/
    │           └── images/
    │               └──logo.png
    └── brand2/
        └── color-scheme.json
        └── public/
            ├── favicon.png
            └── assets/
                └── images/
                    └──logo.png

Usage

General info

The default folder will always be added when serving or building to the dist folder. the brand2 should be the name of another brand that uses differents assets to the ones from the default version. Assets for brand2 should have the same name as the ones for the default brand ; this way they will overwrite the ones from the default folder.

Building or serving for another brand

Your project will only serve or build the default brand on ember build or ember start. To specify another brand, either define a BRAND environment value in your environment or prepend your launch commands with the brand name.

BRAND=brand2 ember build or BRAND=brand2 ember s

Addons

This addon will also work with ember-addons. The destination folder in the dist will have the pakage name in order to keep the original asset serving of the addon functional. Engines being Ember Addons, they will also be supported natively.

Color Schemes

The brand-assets/[brand]/color-scheme.json is a key-value formatted file that maps CSS Variables to their values. Eg.:

{
  "--color-primary-50": "#faf5ff",
  "--color-primary-100": "#f3e8ff",
  "--color-primary-400": "#C58CFE",
  "--color-primary-500": "#A241FF",
  "--color-primary-600": "#8521E0",
  "--color-primary-900": "#440973"
}

Helpers

The required-brand helper gives an easy way of checking if the target-brand matches the one set during buildtime. required-brand takes a brand name (string) as parameter, will compare it to the one configured at buildtime and return true/false if it matches.

A common usage would be to display data for two different brands (default & brand2) in a template.

  {{#if (required-brand "brand2")}}
    If brand2 is set at buildtime, brand2 content will be shown here
  {{else}}
    Default content will be displayed if brand2 is not set at buildtime
  {{/if}}

Decorators

The @requiredBrand decorator allows restricting navigation to a specific route if the target brand is not the one defined at buildtime. Its parameters are:

  • brand - In our examples either "default" or "brand2"
  • fallbackRoute - the route as string that will be called by the Ember router's transitionTo method

Example:

  import { requiredBrand } from '@upfluence/ember-brand-manager/decorators/required-brand';

  @requiredBrand('brand2', 'dashboardForBrand2')
  export default class Dashboard extends Route {}

Debugging

Some debugging is available by setting the EBM_DEBUG env variable to true.

EBM_DEBUG=true BRAND=brand2 ember build
