Micro-library containing core for HMRC's Play UI:

• Dates provides various human-readable date formats
• Money formats pounds and pence
• Strings changes the case of phrases and hyphenates

• DateTuple maps year, month, day fields to a LocalDate
• StopOnFirstFail applies constraints in order and fails fast
• Validators contains multiple small validation functions such as addressTuple, positiveInteger & nonEmptySmallText

Has many standard snippets for form fields, such as: address, dateFields, dropdown, fieldGroup. Each helper correctly adds labels, error messages and CSS classes.

Contains templates for components used across frontend applications such as: header, footer, sidebar, betaBanner.

Include the following dependency in your SBT build

resolvers += Resolver.bintrayRepo("hmrc", "releases")

libraryDependencies += "uk.gov.hmrc" %% "play-ui" % "x.x.x"

If you require either head or footer you'll also need to add some config to your application.conf file in order to build the complete urls for assets:

assets {
  version = "x.x.x"
  url = ""
}

Publish the library locally with

sbt clean compile publishLocal

This will build and install the library into your local Ivy cache. The final lines of the output will contain the version number.

Then update the configuration of your frontend application to use this version number. This is in different files depending on the application. In business-tax-account, it is in FrontendBuild.scala. In one-time-password-frontend, it is in MicroServiceBuild.scala. The line will look like "uk.gov.hmrc" %% "play-ui" % "4.10"

now restart your frontend application, and you will see your local changes.

n.b. you will need to run the sbt command to publish locally each time you make a change.
