Loading Lite Client

Lite Client

Trail: PROIV Documentation > Developer > Lite Client > Lite Client and the Browser > Loading Lite Client

The Lite Client is a JavaScript library file that can be put on any web server to be loaded into the page. It does not need to be loaded from the PROIV web server but does connect to it using AJAX for accessing PROIV sessions. This may have security implications if the page is loaded from another server.

The Lite Client library file (proiv-lite-client.js) is also available in a minimised version (proiv-lite-client.min.js). Both versions hold the same JavaScript but the minimised version has had all white space and comments removed so it is much smaller. If any debugging is required in the browser then use the standard version, not the minimised version.

In addition to the Lite Client JavaScript library the following files must also be loaded for a default Lite Client.

• bootstrap.css – This file holds the Bootstrap CSS that is used to display the Responsive layout. The Lite Client will work with Bootstrap 4.
• PROIVDefault.css – This file holds some basic CSS used by the Lite Client where Bootstrap does not have suitable classes.
• PROIVDefault.js – This file holds the default component templates (see the section on Component Templates).
• PROIVPropertyMap.js – This holds mappings for properties in the component templates that convert the properties to be suitable for Bootstrap and other CSS classes (PROIVPropertyMap_bootstrap4.js).
• fonts/fontawesome-webfont.woff2 – These hold the icons used in Bootstrap 4 (fontawesome).
• font-awesome.min.css – This CSS must be included when using Bootstrap 4.
