Provision SharePoint Assets with the SPFx solution package

Summary

This sample shows how we can provision Document Library, Custom List, Web and List PropertyBag properties, Site Columns, Content Types, Images, Site Page with the SFPx Client side webpart and even prepopulated list and library items along with the SPFx solution package. All of the components can be deployed at once with the SPFx webpart when the app is added to a SharePoint site. It also contains custom list and document library xml schemas.

Used SharePoint Framework Version

Applies to

• SharePoint Framework

• Office 365 developer tenant

  ** The SPFx webpart will work in local workbench, but not the assets. They can be provisioned only when the app is deployed since they are SharePoint specific.

Prerequisites

• Office 365 subscription with SharePoint Online.
• SharePoint Framework development environment already set up.
• Tenant admin access to the Office 365 subscription and App Catalog already setup.
