Package Exports

@compositor/x0
@compositor/x0/lib/dev

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (@compositor/x0) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Fetching Data

Use the async getInitialProps static method to fetch data for static rendering. This method was inspired by Next.js.

const Index = props => (
  <h1>Hello {props.data}</h1>
)

Index.getInitialProps = async () => {
  const fetch = require('isomorphic-fetch')
  const res = await fetch('http://example.com/data')
  const data = await res.json()

  return { data }
}

Custom App

A custom App component can be provided by including an _app.js file. The App component uses the render props pattern to provide additional state and props to its child routes.

// example _app.js
import React from 'react'

export default class extends React.Component {
  state = {
    count: 0
  }

  update = fn => this.setState(fn)

  render () {
    const { render, routes } = this.props

    return render({
      ...this.state,
      decrement: () => this.update(s => ({ count: s.count - 1 })),
      increment: () => this.update(s => ({ count: s.count + 1 }))
    })
  }
}

Layouts

The App component can also be used to provide a common layout for all routes.

// example _app.js
import React from 'react'
import Nav from '../components/Nav'
import Header from '../components/Header'
import Footer from '../components/Footer'

export default class extends React.Component {
  render () {
    const {
      render,
      routes
    } = this.props

    const route = routes.find(route => route.path === props.location.pathname)

    return (
      <React.Fragment>
        <Nav />
        <Header
          route={route}
        />
        {render()}
        <Footer />
      </React.Fragment>
    )
  }
}

CSS-in-JS

x0 supports server-side rendering for styled-components with zero configuration. To enable CSS rendering for static output, ensure that styled-components is installed as a dependency in your package.json

"dependencies": {
  "styled-components": "^3.2.6"
}

Configuration

Default options can be set in the x0 field in package.json.

"x0": {
  "static": true,
  "outDir": "site",
  "title": "Hello",
}

Head content

Head elements such as <title>, <meta>, and <style> can be configured with the x0 field in package.json.

"x0": {
  "title": "My Site",
  "meta": [
    { "name": "twitter:card", "content": "summary" }
    { "name": "twitter:image", "content": "kitten.png" }
  ],
  "links": [
    {
      "rel": "stylesheet",
      "href": "https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto"
    }
  ]
}

Custom HTML Template

A custom HTML template can be passed as the template option.

"x0": {
  "template": "./html.js"
}

// example template
module.exports = ({
  html,
  css,
  scripts,
  title,
  meta = [],
  links = [],
  static: isStatic
}) => `<!DOCTYPE html>
<head>
  <title>{title}</title>
  ${css}
</head>
<div id=root>${html}</div>
${scripts}
`

Routing

x0 creates routes based on the file system, using react-router. To set the base URL for static builds, use the basename option.

"x0": {
  "basename": "/my-site"
}

webpack

Webpack configuration files named webpack.config.js will automatically be merged with the built-in configuration, using webpack-merge. To use a custom filename, pass the file path to the --webpack flag.

// webpack.config.js example
module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      { test: /\.txt$/, loader: 'raw-loader' }
    ]
  }
}

See the example.
