wc-ssr
NOTE: This library is EXPERIMENTAL.
wc-ssr
is a simple Server Side Rendering Library with Web Components
.
This lib is worked by Declarative Shadow DOM. Therefore this lib works to use Server Side Rendering on a supported browser but works to use Client Side Rendering on a not supported browser.
SSR with Web Components
This lib work as SSR in the browser that support Declarative Shadow DOM. But this lib perform as Client Side Rendering in not supported browsers.
Installation
npm install wc-ssr
or
yarn add wc-ssr
Example
// client/AddButton/template.ts
import { html, $props, $event, $shadowroot } from "wc-ssr";
type Props = {
title: string;
onClick?: () => void;
};
export const template = (props: Props) => html`
${/* You can pass props with `$props()`. */}
<add-button ${$props(props)}>
${/* You must set shadowroot attribute to use ShadowDOM */}
<template ${$shadowroot('open')}>
${/* You can add event with `$event()`. */}
<button type="button" ${$event("click", props.onClick)}>
${props.title}
</button>
</template>
</add-button>
`;
// client/AddButton/element.ts
import { BaseElement } from "wc-ssr/client";
import { template } from "./template";
export class AddButton extends BaseElement {
constructor() {
super();
}
render() {
// `props` is injected to `this.props`.
return template({
title: this.props.title,
onClick: this.props.onClick,
});
}
}
customElements.define("add-button", AddButton);
NOTE: When you use SSR feature, you can not load BaseElement
on the server. You must avoid loading BaseElement
like this example. This is because, BaseElement
inherit HTMLElement
.
// client/AddButton/index.ts
export { template } from "./template";
if (IS_CLIENT) {
import(/* webpackMode: "eager" */ "./element");
}
// page.ts
import { html } from 'wc-ssr';
import { template as AddButton } from './client/AddButton';
export const renderPage = () => html`
<div>
<h1>Hello World!</h1>
${AddButton({ title: 'button', onClick: () => console.log('clicked!') })}
</div>
`;
}
// server.ts
import fastify, { FastifyInstance } from "fastify";
import { Server, IncomingMessage, ServerResponse } from "http";
import { htmlToString } from "wc-ssr";
import { renderPage } from './page';
type App = FastifyInstance<
Server,
IncomingMessage,
ServerResponse,
>;
const start = async () => {
const app = fastify();
app.get("/example", async (req, reply) => {
reply.header("Content-Type", "text/html; charset=utf-8");
reply.send(`
<DOCTYPE!>
<html>
<body>
${htmlToString(renderPage())}
</body>
</html>
`);
);
});
try {
await app.listen(3000);
} catch (err) {
app.log.error(err);
process.exit(1);
}
};
start();
See detail in example.
Usage
ShadowDOM
You must use $shadowroot
method to tell custom element use ShadowDOM.
$shadowroot
method can take open
or closed
.
This is optional. Default value is open
.
import { html, $shadowroot } from "wc-ssr";
export const template = html`
<custom-element>
<template ${$shadowroot("open")}>
<span>Hello World</span>
</template>
</custom-element>
`;
Styling
You can use css with style tag.
You can set style tag inside template tag.
import { html, $shadowroot } from "wc-ssr";
const style = html`
<style>
button {
color: red;
}
</style>
`;
const CustomButton = html`
<custom-button>
<template ${$shadowroot()}>
${style}
<button type="button">button</button>
</template>
</custom-button>
`;
You can also set multiple styles as the following.
const style = html`
<link rel="stylesheet" href="example1.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="example2.css" />
<style>
div {
background-color: blue;
}
</style>
`;
Props
You can pass props to component. And you can get props to be injected from BaseElement class.
import { html, $shadowroot } from "wc-ssr";
import { BaseElement } from "wc-ssr/client";
const CustomElement = html`
<custom-element>
<template ${$shadowroot()}>
<h1>Hello World</h1>
${
PassProps({
text: "This is paragraph",
}) /* Pass props to PassProps component */
}
</template>
</custom-element>
`;
class CustomElement extends BaseElement {
/* ... */
}
const PassProps = ({ text }) => html`
<pass-props ${$props({ text }) /* Pass props to pass-props element */}>
<template ${$shadowroot()}>
<p>${text}</p>
</template>
</pass-props>
`;
class PassProps extends BaseElement {
constructor() {
super();
}
render() {
return PassProps({ ...this.props });
}
}
Event
You can add event to element by using $event
method.
import { html, $shadowroot, $event } from "wc-ssr";
import { BaseElement } from "wc-ssr/client";
const EventElement = ({ handleOnClick }) => html`
<event-element>
<template ${$shadowroot()}>
<button type="button" ${$event("click", handleOnClick)}>click me</button>
</template>
</event-element>
`;
class EventElementClass extends BaseElement {
constructor() {
super();
}
handleOnClick = () => {
console.log("Clicked!!");
};
render() {
return EventElement({ handleOnClick: this.handleOnClick });
}
}
State
You can define state like React. If you defined state and change it, render()
is executed.
import { html, $shadowroot, $event } from "wc-ssr";
import { BaseElement } from "wc-ssr/client";
type Props = {
items: string[];
text: string;
handleOnChangeText: (e?: InputEvent) => void;
addItem: () => void;
};
const DefineState = ({ items, text, handleOnChangeText, addItem }) => html`
<define-state>
<template ${$shadowroot()}>
<ul>
${items.map((item) => html`<li>${item}</li>`)}
</ul>
<input
type="text"
value="${text || ""}"
${$event("input", handleOnChangeText)}
/>
<button type="button" ${$event("click", addItem)}>add item</button>
</template>
</define-state>
`;
class DefineState extends BaseElement {
constructor() {
super();
this.state = {
items: [],
text: [],
};
}
addItem = () => {
this.setState({ items: [...this.state.items, this.state.text] });
};
handleOnChangeText = (e?: InputEvent) => {
const target = e?.target as HTMLInputElement;
if (target) {
this.setState({ text: target.value });
}
};
render() {
return DefineState({
items: this.state.items,
text: this.state.text,
handleOnChangeText: this.handleOnChangeText,
addItem: this.addItem,
});
}
}
Attribute
TODO
Lifecycle
You can use web components lifecycle like below.
connectedCallback() {
super.connectedCallback();
console.log('connected!!');
}
And you can use additional lifecycle.
componentDidMount
... This function is invoked when all preparation ofBaseElement
is completed.
componentDidMount() {
super.componentDidMount();
this.setState({ text: this.props.text });
}
Hydration
Hydration is performed automatically by browser.
Server Side Rendering
You can use htmlToString
to render html on the server.
import { htmlToString, html, $shadowroot } from "wc-ssr";
type Props = {
text: string;
};
const render = ({ text }: Props) => html`
<custom-element>
<template ${$shadowroot()}>
<h1>${text}</h1>
</template>
</custom-element>
`;
htmlToString(render({ text: "Hello World" }));
