Helpers for Trowel

These helpers help you to make React application using:

• react-redux
• [email protected]
• [email protected]

Here's an example of your App component:

/*--- App.jsx ---*/
import {Component, PropTypes} from 'react';
import {createStore} from 'redux';
import getMyInitialState from '../redux/my-initial-state.js';
import myReducer from '../redux/my-reducer.js';

/*
	it is a very root application component
	NOT NEEDED to be wrapped in react-redux, react-router or react-hot-loader conatiners
*/
export default class App extends Component {
	render(props) {
		return (
			<div>{props.appData.greating}</div>
		);
	}
}

App.propTypes = {
	appData: PropTypes.shapeOf({
		greating: PropTypes.string
	})
};

// REQUIRED: static function creating redux store
App.configureStore = () => createStore(myReducer, getMyInitialState());

trowelTools.bundle

(App: React.Component) => {
	initClient: (
		appState?: any = {},
		appData?: any = {},
		mountElementId?: string = 'mount'
	) => void
}	

Helps you to wrap your App component by:

• <Provider> from react-redux
• <BrowserRouter> from react-router-dom
• <AppContainer> from react-hot-loader

/*--- index.js – entry file for webpack ---*/
import {bundle} from 'trowel-tools';
import getMyInitialState from '../redux/my-initial-state.js';

const appBundle = bundle(App);

// will be passed as appData prop
const appData = {
	greating: 'Hello World!'
};

appBundle.initClient(getMyInitialState(), appData, 'mount');

// if hot-module-replacement is enabled
if (module.hot) {
	module.hot.accept('./App.jsx', () => {
		const NextApp = require('./App.jsx').default;

		// .updateClient method will appear after you called .initClient
		appBundle.updateClient(NextApp);
	});
}

trowelTools.initSSR

(
	App: React.Component,
	params: {
		location: string,
		routerContext: {},
		appState?: any,
		appData?: any
	}
) => React$Element

Helps you to wrap your App component by:

• <Provider> from react-redux
• <StaticRouter> from react-router-dom
• <AppContainer> from react-hot-loader

/*--- ssr.js – Server-Side rendering ---*/
import {renderToString} from 'react-dom/server';
import {initSSR} from 'trowel-tools';
import App from './App.jsx';
import getMyInitialState from '../redux/my-initial-state.js';

export default function (location) {
	const routerContext = {};
	const appState = getMyInitialState();
	const appData = {
		greating: 'Hello World!'
	};

	const app = initSSR(App, {location, routerContext, appState, appData});

	return renderToString(app);
}
