cycle-jsx-ir v0.2.0

Cycle-JSX-IR

This is a Cycle driver which uses the fantastic JSX-IR library.

Currently only a driver for the Incremental DOM is ready.

Install

npm install cycle-jsx-ir

If you plan to use JSX you also need babel-plugin-jsx

npm install babel-plugin-jsx

See here for usage if you're not familiar.

Roadmap

• Incremental DOM Driver jsx-to-idom
• Virtual Hyperscript
• HTML Driver jsx-to-html
• Generic DOM Driver jsx-to-dom
• Nativescript Driver jsx-to-nativescript (This repo is a work in progress)
• Rule the world!

Super Basic Example

import {Rx, run} from '@cycle/core';
import {makeIDOMDriver, h} from 'cycle-jsx-ir';

function main(responses) {
  let view$ = Rx.Observable.interval(1000)
    .map(i => {
      return h('h1', `I've been running for ${i} seconds!`)
    });

  return {
    IDOM: view$
  }
}

let drivers = {
  IDOM: makeIDOMDriver('.app')
}

run(main, drivers);

UI Partials

One cool feature provided by JSX-IR is to create functions that can encapsulate parts of your UI.

These are not custom elements, only resuable UI elements.

Example UI Partial

// With hyperscript
function myPartial(props, children) {
  //children === [ ];
  return h('div', {className: 'special-partial'}, [
   h('h1', `${props.currentTime.toLocaleString()}`)
  ]);
}

function view(state$) {
  return state$.map(
    ({currentTime}) => {
      //currentTime === new Date()
      return h('div', {}, [
        h(myPartial, {currentTime}, [])
      ])
    }
  );
}

// With JSX
function myPartial(props, children) {
  //children === [ ];
  return (
    <div className='special-partial'>
      <h1>{props.currentTime.toLocalestring()}</h1>
    </div>
  );
}

function view(state$) {
  return state$.map(
    ({currentTime}) =>
    <div>
      <myPartial currentTime={currentTime}></myPartial>
    </div>
  );
}

UI Partials that return hyperscript can be used in JSX and partials that return JSX can be used from hyperscript!
