Resolving node_modules CSS dependencies in PowerApps Custom Control

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 6

I am trying to build a power apps custom control using ckeditor v5. First step I did was to include

"@ckeditor/ckeditor5-build-classic": "^12.3.1",
 using npm and resolve in my controls base file using  
const ClassicEditor = require('@ckeditor/ckeditor5-build-classic');
 
The above settings work and my control renders fine. I although have one other depdency to include fonts package. For this we have to seperately install 
"@ckeditor/ckeditor5-font": "^11.2.1"
and reference in index.ts -
const Font = require('@ckeditor/ckeditor5-font/src/font');
 
When compiling the package, it throws CSS exceptions 
ERROR in ./node_modules/@ckeditor/ckeditor5-ui/theme/components/list/list.css 6:0
Module parse failed: Unexpected character '@' (6:0)
You may need an appropriate loader to handle this file type.

> @import "../../mixins/_unselectable.css";
|
| .ck.ck-list {
@ ./node_modules/@ckeditor/ckeditor5-ui/src/list/listview.js 13:0-46
@ ./node_modules/@ckeditor/ckeditor5-ui/src/dropdown/utils.js
@ ./node_modules/@ckeditor/ckeditor5-font/src/fontsize/fontsizeui.js
@ ./node_modules/@ckeditor/ckeditor5-font/src/fontsize.js
@ ./node_modules/@ckeditor/ckeditor5-font/src/font.js
@ ./HtmlEditorControl/index.ts
 
Appreciate all the help. Thanks.

    The PCF in this moment doesn't compile the files ".css", you need remove all lines where use @import with ".css" and then add these in the manifest. Example:

    <css path="../node_modules/ckeditor/mixins/_unselectable.css" order="1" />
