Report Widgets
==============

Have been retired and made into something better. Use Report Displayers instead.


-----------------------------------------------------------------


See :doc:`/embedding/apps-a` or :doc:`/embedding/apps-c/index`. The changes are as follows:

1. Widget becomes an App.
2. The main class in ``presenter.[js|ts|ls|coffee]`` has been changed from ``Widget`` to ``App``.
3. A config file with dependencies for a particular App is moved to its folder in the form of a ``config.js`` file. The contents of this file is being ``exported`` and contains example config to be passed from middleware and/or client.
4. The Java service serving Report Widgets has been retired from InterMine core.
5. The Node.js service now works as a middleware. You can plug it into your (Node.js) app by passing an array of paths on local or remote systems where it can find the App sources.
6. There is a repo for the `Middleware <https://github.com/intermine/apps-a-middleware>`_ and for the `Sources <https://github.com/intermine/intermine-apps-a>`_.
7. Folders and modules are now allowed and can be required across.
8. The root ``App`` now needs to be exported from the main class.
9. To use a template you need to include its suffix.
