Seam Components

npm GitHub Actions

Seam Components may be used in any web application as native ⚡Web Components ⚡

Description

See our official announcement! 🎉

Seam Components are a set of white-labeled UI elements that can be added to your application in seconds. With these components, you can offer advanced device management features to your users without needing to develop complex logic for managing device state, refreshing data, and performing actions.

Resources to Get Started

Live Examples

Installation

Add this as a dependency to your project using npm with

$ npm install @seamapi/react

Usage

With React

Check out the basic example app!

  1. Obtain a publishable key from the Seam Console.
  2. Wrap your React app with the SeamProvider.
  3. Drop in Seam Components.
import { ConnectAccountButton, DeviceTable, SeamProvider } from '@seamapi/react'

export function App() {
  return (
    <SeamProvider publishableKey='your_publishable_key'>
      <main>
        <h1>My App</h1>
        <ConnectAccountButton />
        <DeviceTable />
      </main>
    </SeamProvider>
  )
}

With Native Web Components

Check out the web component example app!

  1. Obtain a publishable key from the Seam Console.
  2. Add the <script> tag to your page and drop in Seam Components.
<body>
  <seam-connect-account-button
    publishable-key="your_publishable_key"
  ></seam-connect-account-button>
  <seam-device-table publishable-key="your_publishable_key"></seam-device-table>
  <script
    type="module"
    src="https://react.seam.co/v/4.0.0/dist/elements.js"
  ></script>
</body>

Update the version in the script tag above with the exact version of this package you would like to use.

Web component attributes and properties

Each React component is defined as a custom element:

  • The element name is in in kebab-case, e.g., <DeviceTable> becomes <seam-device-table>.
  • Each element is wrapped in a <SeamProvider />.
  • An attribute and custom property is defined for each <SeamProvider /> prop and component prop.
  • Attributes are in kebab-case and properties are in snakeCase.

Attributes map directly to component props. All attributes are passed as strings, thus non-string props have some limitations:

  • Number props will be parsed using parseFloat.
  • Boolean props should be passed as true or false, e.g., disable-css-injection="true" or disable-css-injection="false".
  • Array props may be passed as JSON, e.g., device-ids="["foo", "bar"]", or CSV, e.g., device-ids="foo,bar".
  • Function and object props should not be passed as attributes. Set them as properties instead.

Use custom properties to work directly with JavaScript objects and primitives.

  • This will avoid any issues with string parsing and serialization.
  • Use the onSessionUpdate prop to maintain a reference to the internal Seam client.

For example,

globalThis.customElements.whenDefined('seam-device-table').then(() => {
  const elements = globalThis.document.getElementsByTagName('seam-device-table')
  const element = elements[0]
  if (element == null) {
    throw new Error('Cannot find seam-device-table in document')
  }
  let seam
  element.onSessionUpdate = (client) => {
    seam = client
  }
  element.onDeviceClick = (deviceId) => {
    if (seam == null) return
    seam.devices.get({ device_id: deviceId }).then(console.log)
  }
})

React Hooks

All components interact with the Seam API via a set of React Hooks. You can use these hooks directly in your application to build your own components.

Import hooks directly from @seamapi/react or @seamapi/react/hooks. For most applications, these imports are equivalent, however if you are only using the hooks, we recommend importing from @seamapi/react/hooks as it may enable performance or bundling improvements depending on your build system.

Hooks must be used inside the SeamProvider. They are well-typed and follow a uniform API.

import { SeamProvider, useDevices } from '@seamapi/react/hooks'

export function App() {
  return (
    <SeamProvider publishableKey='your_publishable_key'>
      <main>
        <h1>My App</h1>
        <Devices />
      </main>
    </SeamProvider>
  )
}

function Devices() {
  const { devices, isPending, isError, error } = useDevices()

  if (isPending) {
    return <p>Loading</p>
  }

  if (isError) {
    return <p>{error?.message}</p>
  }

  return (
    <>
      <h2>Devices</h2>
      <div>
        {devices?.map((device) => (
          <p key={device.device_id}>{device.properties.name}</p>
        ))}
      </div>
    </>
  )
}

Styles

CSS is automatically included unless using <SeamProvider disableCssInjection />.

Components are styled with plain Cascading Style Sheets (CSS). All styles are prefixed with seam- to avoid name collisions.

By default, the SeamProvider will inject a link tag into the document head to load the CSS. If you prefer to manually load the CSS, this behavior may be disabled with the disableCssInjection prop. Then, either import the CSS using a supported bundler with

import '@seamapi/react/index.css'

or place the following in the <head> tag:

You must match the version string below with the exact version of this package used by your application.

<link
  rel="stylesheet"
  href="https://react.seam.co/v/4.0.0/dist/index.min.css"
/>

Customizing Styles

The seam- prefixed CSS class names are not part of the stable API and may change unexpectedly.

Each component accepts a className prop. The class name will be set on the top level container, or if a sub-component is rendered, passed though. This makes them compatible with native CSS and most CSS-in-JS systems, e.g., Emotion and styled-components.

Using inside a modal dialog

A Seam Component must be a child of a DOM element with the seam-components class name for the CSS styles to work properly. Normally, all Seam Components are rendered as child of the <SeamProvider /> which ensures this condition.

React implementations of the modal dialog pattern often allow specifying the contents of the modal as a child element, yet render the contents of the modal in the DOM under a different parent element outside of the current branch of the DOM tree. Thus, even when a Seam Component is logically rendered as a child of the <SeamProvider /> in the React tree, it will be rendered outside of that branch of tree in the actual DOM.

This concern does not apply when using the Seam Components as web components. Each custom element already wraps the underlying component inside a container element with the correct class name. The lack of a default container element for each React component is an intentional decision to align with the standard React provider design pattern.

To handle this special case, use the seamComponentsClassName on the container that will wrap the dialog content, e.g.,

import { useState } from "react"
import { Button, Dialog } from "@mui/material"
import { seamComponentsClassName, DeviceTable } from "@seam/react"

function DeviceTableInsideModal() {
  const [open, setOpen] = useState(false)
  const handleOpen = () => {
    setOpen(true)
  }
  const handleClose = () => {
    setOpen(false)
  }
  return (
    <>
      <Button onClick={handleOpen}>Open</Button>
      <Dialog
        className={seamComponentsClassName}
        open={open}
        onClose={handleClose}
      >
        <DeviceTable />
      </Dialog>
    </>
  )
}

Fonts

Fonts are automatically included unless using <SeamProvider disableFontInjection />.

The components are optimized for use with Source Sans Pro, but will fallback to other system sans-serif fonts.

By default, the SeamProvider will inject a link tag into the document head to load the font. If you prefer to manually provide the font, this behavior may be disabled with the disableFontInjection prop. Then, load it from Google Fonts by placing the following in the <head> tag:

<link
  rel="stylesheet"
  href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Source+Sans+Pro:wght@400;600;700&display=swap"
/>

Content Security Policy (CSP)

Default CSP

When using the default provider settings, the components are compatible with this CSP:

default-src 'self'; connect-src 'self' https://connect.getseam.com; img-src 'self' https://connect.getseam.com; font-src 'self' https://fonts.gstatic.com; style-src 'self' https://fonts.googleapis.com

Granular CSP

Depending on which assets you choose to host yourself, the CSP may be made stricter.

By self hosting the styles and recommended fonts (or choosing not to use them), and proxying the Seam API endpoint, the components are compatible with this strict CSP:

default-src 'self'; img-src 'self' https://connect.getseam.com

The img-src is required as some components display device images from the Seam API.

When using the default endpoint, extend connect-src with

connect-src 'self' https://connect.getseam.com

When serving the fonts from Google Fonts, include font-src and style-src with

font-src 'self' https://fonts.gstatic.com; style-src 'self' https://fonts.googleapis.com

When serving the CSS styles from the default CDN, extend style-src with

style-src https://react.seam.co

Telemetry

By default, this library reports basic usage telemetry to the Seam API. This may be completely disabled with <SeamProvider disableTelemetry>.

Before disabling telemetry, please consider the following:

  • Telemetry is sent directly to the Seam API and is never sold to third parties.
  • Telemetry is used by Seam for the sole purpose of improving Seam Components and directly enhancing the experience for your end users.
  • No data is persisted on the client beyond the lifetime of the browser session: this library does not use cookies or local browser storage.
  • Telemetry may be selectively disabled for some users to align with any existing data collection compliance requirements of your application.
  • Telemetry does not negatively impact performance and adds minimal background network overhead.
  • The implementation is small, simple to audit, and completely transparent: src/lib/telemetry.

Development and Testing

Quickstart

$ git clone https://github.com/seamapi/react.git
$ cd react
$ nvm install
$ npm install
$ npm start

Primary development tasks are defined under scripts in package.json and available via npm run. View them with

$ npm run

Source code

The source code is hosted on GitHub. Clone the project with

$ git clone [email protected]:seamapi/react.git

Requirements

You will need Node.js with npm and a Node.js debugging client. Alternately, develop in the cloud with Codespaces.

Be sure that all commands run under the correct Node version, e.g., if using nvm, install the correct version with

$ nvm install

Set the active version for each shell session with

$ nvm use

Install the development dependencies with

$ npm install

Storybook

Develop components with Storybook.

Run the full storybook in development mode with

$ npm start

The deployed storybook runs in docs mode which does not contain the full storybook. Develop the storybook in docs mode with

$ npm run docs:start

Chromatic

Chromatic automates visual and interaction tests for Storybook.

The full storybook for the main branch is hosted at storybook.react.seam.co.

On each commit, the full storybook is published to Chromatic for review. On pull requests, Chromatic will run UI regressions tests on each commit. Chromatic reports results as status checks that link directly to the storybook.

If changes are detected, follow the link in the status checks to approve the changes. Contributors must be granted access to approve changes on Chromatic; request access from another maintainer of this project.

Note on PR from forks

Pull requests from a public fork do not have access to the Vercel secrets required to retrieve the preview deployment URL. For these PRs, the Chromatic Storybook and Chromatic UI tests will run against the fake version and fake seed from the main branch.

If your PR is from a public fork and requires updates to the fake version or seed, reach out to a project maintainer for assistance.

Previews

Every pull request deploys the storybook in docs mode with the examples in a Vercel Preview Deployment where you may comment directly on the preview. This is the same storybook published on react.seam.co.

Fake Seam Connect

This project uses a fake version of Seam Connect to have deterministic responses for rendering views and running tests.

The tests use the default seed.

Edit the Storybook seed data for the fake or find relevant ids for testing components here: Storybook fake seed.

Fake Devicedb

Fake Seam Connect optionally depends on a fake version of the Seam Devicedb. This is required by some components and hooks in this project.

The seed data for the fake is generated by pulling data from the real API. Update this seed data with

$ npm run storybook:update-devicedb-seed

Tests

Write tests with Vitest.

Examples

Find fully working examples apps under examples/. Each example app is built and deployed along with the Storybook documentation.

Run and develop the examples with,

$ npm run examples

SVG Icon Components

The React components under src/lib/icons are generated from assets/icons. To add a new icon:

  1. Place or update the SVG icon in assets/icons.
  2. Run npm run generate.
  3. Import with
import { SeamIcon } from 'lib/icons/SeamIcon.js'

Publishing
