Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

Isomorphic react-router-relay npm version

Adds server side rendering support to react-router-relay using isomorphic-relay.

Installation

npm install -S isomorphic-relay isomorphic-relay-router

How to use

Create a Relay network layer on the server. And if you are using Relay.DefaultNetworkLayer, specify the full url to the GraphQL endpoint:

const GRAPHQL_URL = `http://localhost:8080/graphql`;

const networkLayer = new Relay.DefaultNetworkLayer(GRAPHQL_URL);

When processing a request on the server, get renderProps using match function from react-router (see here), prepare the data using IsomorphicRouter.prepareData, then render React markup using IsomorphicRouter.render (pass the props returned by IsomorphicRouter.prepareData), and send the React output along with the data to the client:

import IsomorphicRouter from 'isomorphic-relay-router';

app.get('/*', (req, res, next) => {
  match({routes, location: req.originalUrl}, (error, redirectLocation, renderProps) => {
    if (error) {
      next(error);
    } else if (redirectLocation) {
      res.redirect(302, redirectLocation.pathname + redirectLocation.search);
    } else if (renderProps) {
      IsomorphicRouter.prepareData(renderProps, networkLayer).then(render, next);
    } else {
      res.status(404).send('Not Found');
    }

    function render({data, props}) {
      const reactOutput = ReactDOMServer.renderToString(IsomorphicRouter.render(props));

      res.render(path.resolve(__dirname, '..', 'views', 'index.ejs'), {
        preloadedData: JSON.stringify(data),
        reactOutput
      });
    }
  });
});

On page load in the browser, create an instance of Relay.Environment, inject an Relay network layer to it. Get renderProps using match function from react-router, inject the prepared data to the Relay store using IsomorphicRelay.injectPreparedData, then prepare initial render using IsomorphicRelay.prepareInitialRender, and render React using Router from react-router (pass the props returned by IsomorphicRouter.prepareInitialRender):

import IsomorphicRouter from 'isomorphic-relay-router';

const environment = new Relay.Environment();

environment.injectNetworkLayer(new Relay.DefaultNetworkLayer('/graphql'));

const data = JSON.parse(document.getElementById('preloadedData').textContent);

IsomorphicRelay.injectPreparedData(environment, data);

const rootElement = document.getElementById('root');

// use the same routes object as on the server
match({routes, history: browserHistory}, (error, redirectLocation, renderProps) => {
  IsomorphicRouter.prepareInitialRender(environment, renderProps).then(props => {
    ReactDOM.render(<Router {...props} />, rootElement);
  });
});
