express-pjax-middleware v0.1.0

express-pjax-middleware

Express middleware for PJAX partial rendering with X-PJAX-CONTAINER.

Usage

• Attach the middleware to your express application by adding app.use(pjax()).
• Use renderPjax method instead of render in your route to handle pjax request automatically.
• Perfom a request to the page you want by passing the following headers and get the corresponding partial content:
  • X-PJAX: 1
  • X-PJAX-CONTAINER: the id, with an optional hash of the fragment to return

Example

In index.jade:

h1 Application

#wrapper
    h2 Headline
    p Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit. Laudantium ullam adipisci hic dolore nemo tenetur iste saepe, sapiente placeat provident. Obcaecati accusamus itaque rerum, sed nemo eligendi voluptas vel sit!

In server.js:

var express = require('express');
var pjax = require('express-pjax-middleware');
var app = express();

app.set('view engine', 'jade');

app.use(pjax());

app.get('/', function(req, res) {
  res.renderPjax('index');
});

app.listen(3000);

curl http://localhost:3000 -H "X-PJAX-CONTAINER: #wrapper" -H "X-PJAX: 1"

// return
<h2>Headline</h2>
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit. Laudantium ullam adipisci hic dolore nemo tenetur iste saepe, sapiente placeat provident. Obcaecati accusamus itaque rerum, sed nemo eligendi voluptas vel sit!</p>
