blocks-post-preview v0.0.3

Post Preview is a standalone client-side UMD JavaScript module for rendering an API response (resource) on a page using solidus-client and a handlebars template.

Getting the Module

You can download the latest release from GitHub or install with npm install post-preview.

Example Usage

To get started, you'll need to include the script on your page, create a placeholder element, and initialize the module. After you include post-preview.js in your project, here's a minimal code pattern you can use to get started quickly;

<div id="post"></div>

<script>
window.onload = function() {
  var postPreview = new PostPreview({
    element: '#post',
    resource: 'http://wordpress.sparkart.com/wp-json/posts/';
  });
};
</script>

At a minimum, you'll need to change the element and resource parameters to match your needs.

Advanced Usage

Options

The module can be configured with several optional parameters passed to it's constructor. Here is the full list of options:

resource

(Required) A URL string of the preview resource to render into the template. ie 'http://wordpress.sparkart.com/wp-json/posts/'+postID

If you want to customize the markup, you can override the default markup by passing in a compiled handlebars template using this option. See the default template for a starting point to work from. (Defaults to false).
