gulp-static-react-pages

Information

Static Websites like in 2015 :-)

This simple gulp plugin helps to build your own static website generator using modern web technologies:

• gulp as build process orchestrator
• browser-sync as development/preview webserver with auto-reload capabilities
• React as the its template engine (which helps to refactor your page templates into reusable React components)
• yaml/json data files as optional data available to the React page components
• local node modules in the website projects as reusable abstractions
• any npm package as third part libs directory
• any gulp plugin to customize your build process

Usage

var prettify = require("gulp-prettify");
var renderStaticReactPages = require("gulp-static-react-pages");

gulp.task("build", function() {
  return gulp.src("./site/pages/**/*.jsx")
    .pipe(renderStaticReactPages())
    .pipe(prettify({indent_size: 2}))
    .pipe(gulp.dest("./build/"));
});

This will render the React components from the pages files and it will pass to the components a data props with a site and a page properties.

The site data file will be loaded from (in the following order):

• ./site/data/site.yaml
• ./site/data/site.json

The page data will be loaded from (in the following order):

• ./site/data/PAGE_PATH/PAGE_BASENAME.yaml
• ./site/data/PAGE_PATH/PAGE_BASENAME.json

Examples

Please take a look to the examples/simple for a simple website example.
