Embeddable Signup Form

Embed a Ghost signup form on any site.

Development

Pre-requisites

  • Run yarn in Ghost monorepo root
  • Run yarn in this directory

Running via Ghost yarn dev in root folder

You can automatically start the signup-form dev server when developing Ghost by running Ghost (in root folder) via yarn dev --all. This will only build the production build, without the demo site.

Running via yarn dev --all --signup or yarn dev --signup will also serve the demo site on http://localhost:6173.

Running the development version only

Run yarn dev (in package folder) to start the development server to test/develop the form standalone.

Using the UMD build during development

Vite by default only supports HRM with an ESM output. But when loading a script on a site as a ESM module (<script type="module" src="...">), you don't have access to document.currentScript inside the script, which is required to determine the location to inject the iframe. In development mode we use a workaround for this to make the ESM HMR work. But this workaroudn is not suitable for production.

To test the real production behaviour without this hack, you can use http://localhost:6173/preview.html. This HTML page will use http://localhost:6174/signup-form.min.js directly.

Develop

This is a monorepo package.

Follow the instructions for the top-level repo.

  1. git clone this repo & cd into it as usual
  2. Run yarn to install top-level dependencies.
