The `public/` folder at the root of your app holds static files — images, icons, fonts, or any other assets your app needs at runtime. These files are automatically included in builds, synced during dev mode, and uploaded to the server.
|
|
|
|
Files placed in `public/` are:
|
|
|
|
- **Publicly accessible** — once synced to the server, assets are served at a public URL. No authentication is needed to access them.
|
|
- **Available in front components** — use asset URLs to display images, icons, or any media inside your React components.
|
|
- **Available in logic functions** — reference asset URLs in emails, API responses, or any server-side logic.
|
|
- **Used for marketplace metadata** — the `logoUrl` and `screenshots` fields in `defineApplication()` reference files from this folder (e.g., `public/logo.png`). These are displayed in the marketplace when your app is published.
|
|
- **Auto-synced in dev mode** — when you add, update, or delete a file in `public/`, it is synced to the server automatically. No restart needed.
|
|
- **Included in builds** — `yarn twenty build` bundles all public assets into the distribution output.
|
|
|
|
## Accessing public assets with `getPublicAssetUrl`
|
|
|
|
Use the `getPublicAssetUrl` helper from `twenty-sdk` to get the full URL of a file in your `public/` directory. It works in both **logic functions** and **front components**.
|
|
|
|
**In a logic function:**
|
|
|
|
```ts src/logic-functions/send-invoice.ts
|
|
import { defineLogicFunction, getPublicAssetUrl } from 'twenty-sdk/define';
|
|
|
|
const handler = async (): Promise<any> => {
|
|
const logoUrl = getPublicAssetUrl('logo.png');
|
|
const invoiceUrl = getPublicAssetUrl('templates/invoice.png');
|
|
|
|
// Fetch the file content (no auth required — public endpoint)
|
|
const response = await fetch(invoiceUrl);
|
|
const buffer = await response.arrayBuffer();
|
|
|
|
return { logoUrl, size: buffer.byteLength };
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
export default defineLogicFunction({
|
|
universalIdentifier: 'a1b2c3d4-...',
|
|
name: 'send-invoice',
|
|
description: 'Sends an invoice with the app logo',
|
|
timeoutSeconds: 10,
|
|
handler,
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**In a front component:**
|
|
|
|
```tsx src/front-components/company-card.tsx
|
|
import { defineFrontComponent, getPublicAssetUrl } from 'twenty-sdk/define';
|
|
|
|
export default defineFrontComponent(() => {
|
|
const logoUrl = getPublicAssetUrl('logo.png');
|
|
|
|
return <img src={logoUrl} alt="App logo" />;
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The `path` argument is relative to your app's `public/` folder. Both `getPublicAssetUrl('logo.png')` and `getPublicAssetUrl('public/logo.png')` resolve to the same URL — the `public/` prefix is stripped automatically if present.
