This package provides Core PatternFly components for the PatternFly 4.
This project currently supports Node Active LTS releases. Please stay current with Node Active LTS when developing patternfly-react.
For example, to develop with Node 8, use the following:
nvm install 8
nvm use 8
This project also requires a Yarn version of >=1.6.0. The latest version can be installed here.
yarn add @patternfly/react-core
or
npm install @patternfly/react-core --save
It's strongly advised to use the PatternFly Base CSS in your whole project, or some components may diverge in appearance:
import '@patternfly/react-core/dist/styles/base.css';
import React from 'react';
import { Button } from '@patternfly/react-core';
export default <Button variant="primary">Button</Button>;
All css related to each component is provided alongside it. There is no component level CSS to import.
This project uses Gatsby. For an overview of the project structure please refer to the Gatsby documentation - Building with Components.
A comprehensive list of components and detailed usage of each can be found on the PatternFly React Docs website You can also find how each component is meant to be used from a design perspective on the PatternFly 4 Core website.

This library makes use of the babel plugin from @patternfly/react-styles to enable providing the CSS alongside the components. This removes the need for consumers to use (style|css|sass)-loaders. For an example of using CSS from core you can reference Button.js. For any CSS not provided by core please use the StyleSheet.create
utility from @patternfly/react-styles. This will prevent collisions with any consumers, and allow the CSS to be bundled with the component.
yarn build
Note the build scripts for this are located in the root package.json under yarn build
.
Testing is done at the root of this repo. To only run the patternfly-react tests:
yarn test packages/patternfly-4/react-core
