Node-style-loader-async NPM

node-style-loader-async

This is a fork from: https://github.com/iheartradio/node-style-loader

The only difference between node-style-loader and node-style-loader-async is support for async function in collectContext.

A Webpack loader for loading styles on the server side. It behaves almost identically to how style-loader operates on the client side, which allows you to use it without changing the way you load CSS in your application components.

Similarly to how style-loader loads styles into the DOM, this package supports critical path style rendering without imposing any import splitting method. This allows you to have a style loading path independant from your rendering path and has performance implications.

Installation

$ npm install node-style-loader-async --save-dev

Usage

Webpack configuration

target: 'node',
module: {
  loaders: [
    {
      test: /\.css$/,
      loader: `node-style!css`
    },
    ...

Server rendering

Simple usage

import App from 'components/App'
import {collectInitial} from 'node-style-loader/collect'

// do not call this before your application component has been imported
const initialStyleTag = collectInitial()

function renderPage(props) {

  const reactString = renderToString(createElement(App, props))

  return(
   `<!DOCTYPE html>
    <html>
      <head>
        <meta charset="utf-8">
        ${initialStyleTag}
      </head>
      <body>
        <div id="mount">${reactString}</div>
        <script src="/build/bundle.js"></script>
      </body>
    </html>`
  )
}

Usage for import splitting

If you conditionally import components during rendering (e.g. in your routes), or import styles in your component render functions, you need to use collectContext to collect the critical path CSS.

import {collectInitial, collectContext} from 'node-style-loader/collect'

// do not call this before your routes have been imported
const initialStyleTag = collectInitial()

function async renderPage(contextEl, props) {

  // render and capture CSS
  const [contextStyleTag, reactString] = await collectContext(
    () => renderToString(createElement(contextEl, props)))

  return(
   `<!DOCTYPE html>
    <html>
      <head>
        <meta charset="utf-8">
        ${initialStyleTag}
        ${contextStyleTag}
      </head>
      <body>
        <div id="mount">${reactString}</div>
        <script src="/build/bundle.js"></script>
      </body>
    </html>`
  )
}

Usage for import splitting with async rendering

If you want to use renderToNodeStream together with collectContext you should first promisify stream with ex. getStream and then use for collectContext with async function as argument.

import {collectInitial, collectContext} from 'node-style-loader-async/collect'


// do not call this before your routes have been imported
const initialStyleTag = collectInitial()

function async renderPage(contextEl, props) {

  // render and capture CSS
  const [contextStyleTag, reactString] = await collectContext(
      async () => {
        const reactStream = ReactDOMServer.renderToNodeStream(createElement(contextEl, props));
        return await getStream(reactStream);
    });

  return(
   `<!DOCTYPE html>
    <html>
      <head>
        <meta charset="utf-8">
        ${initialStyleTag}
        ${contextStyleTag}
      </head>
      <body>
        <div id="mount">${reactString}</div>
        <script src="/build/bundle.js"></script>
      </body>
    </html>`
  )
}

Client-side cleanup

import serverStyleCleanup from 'node-style-loader/clientCleanup'

// initial react render
render(AppElement)

// remove server-generated CSS after your first render
serverStyleCleanup()

Server-side style rendering loaders comparison

	style collection	CSS Modules	style import splitting	shadows style-loader rendering
node-style-loader	yes	yes	yes, standard	partial
react-webpack-server-side-example	incomplete	no	partial, standard	no
style-collector-loader	requires globals	no	no	no
fake-style-loader	partially out of scope	yes	N/A	no

Roadmap

add test coverage
test contextCollect
test deduping
add support for media/sourceMap
add support for stylesheet url
test/add hot reload support
optimize speed/inject stylesInDom into style-loader to save first style load on client
