Package Exports

inferno-router

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 (inferno-router) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

Features

Same as react-router v4, except react-native support which we have tested at this point.

See official react-router documentation

Client side usage

import { render } from 'inferno';
import { BrowserRouter, Route, Link } from 'inferno-router';

const Home = () => (
  <div>
    <h2>Home</h2>
  </div>
);

const About = () => (
  <div>
    <h2>About</h2>
  </div>
);

const Topic = ({ match }) => (
  <div>
    <h3>{match.params.topicId}</h3>
  </div>
);

const Topics = ({ match }) => (
  <div>
    <h2>Topics</h2>
    <ul>
      <li>
        <Link to={`${match.url}/rendering`}>
          Rendering with React
        </Link>
      </li>
      <li>
        <Link to={`${match.url}/components`}>
          Components
        </Link>
      </li>
      <li>
        <Link to={`${match.url}/props-v-state`}>
          Props v. State
        </Link>
      </li>
    </ul>

    <Route path={`${match.url}/:topicId`} component={Topic}/>
    <Route exact path={match.url} render={() => (
      <h3>Please select a topic.</h3>
    )}/>
  </div>
);

const MyWebsite = () => (
  <BrowserRouter>
    <div>
      <ul>
        <li><Link to="/">Home</Link></li>
        <li><Link to="/about">About</Link></li>
        <li><Link to="/topics">Topics</Link></li>
      </ul>
      <hr/>
      <Route exact path="/" component={Home}/>
      <Route path="/about" component={About}/>
      <Route path="/topics" component={Topics}/>
    </div>
  </BrowserRouter>
);

// Render HTML on the browser
render(<MyWebsite />, document.getElementById('root'));

Sever side usage with Koa

First, let's create our component to render boilerplate HTML, header, body etc.

import Koa from 'koa';
import { renderToString } from 'inferno-server';
import { Switch, StaticRouter, Route } from 'inferno-router';

const app = new Koa();

function Index({children}) {
  return (
    <html>
    <head>
      <meta charSet="utf-8"/>
      <title>Inferno</title>
    </head>
    <body>
    <div id="app">{children}</div>
    </body>
    </html>
  )
}

// Example routes
function Home() {
  return <div>Welcome Home!</div>
}

function Foo() {
  return <span>Bar</span>
}

function NotFound() {
  return <h2>404</h2>;
}

const routes = (
  <Switch>
    <Route exact path="/" component={Home}/>
    <Route exact path="/demo" component={Foo}/>
    <Route path="*" component={NotFound}/>
  </Switch>
);

// Server-side render
async function render(ctx, next) {
  const context = {};
  const content = renderToString(
    <StaticRouter location={ctx.url} context={context}>
      <Index hostname={ctx.hostname}>
        {routes}
      </Index>
    </StaticRouter>
  );

  // This will contain the URL to redirect to if <Redirect> was used
  if (context.url) {
    return ctx.redirect(context.url);
  }

  ctx.type = 'text/html';
  ctx.body = '<!DOCTYPE html>\n' + content;
  await next();
}

// Add infero render as middleware
app.use(render);


app.listen(8080, function () {
  console.log('Listening on port ' + 8080);
});

Differences with React-Router v4

No "official" react-native support.
There's no inferno-router-dom, all functionality is inside inferno-router
