jsx-html

jsx-html render JSX template to HTML asynchronously. Compatible with Deno, NodeJs and can also run in browser.

Try with runkit: https://runkit.com/apiel/jsx-html-example

NodeJs

yarn add async-jsx-html
# or
npm install async-jsx-html
import { React } from 'async-jsx-html';

const View = () => <div>Hello</div>;
// render return a Promise
(<View />).render().then((html: string) => console.log(html));

Deno

/// <reference path="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/apiel/jsx-html/master/jsx.d.ts" />

import { React } from 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/apiel/jsx-html/master/mod.ts';

const View = () => <div>Hello</div>;
// render return a Promise
(<View />).render().then((html: string) => console.log(html));
deno run https://raw.githubusercontent.com/apiel/jsx-html/master/examples/00.tsx

TsConfig

As you would do with React, you need to import React from jsx-html for the transpiler. If you are not feeling confortable with using React as import since it is not React, you can import jsx from jsx-html but you would have to update your tsconfig file: denoland/deno#3572

{
    "compilerOptions": {
        "jsx": "react",
        "jsxFactory": "jsx"
    }
}
/// <reference path="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/apiel/jsx-html/master/jsx.d.ts" />

import { jsx } from 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/apiel/jsx-html/master/mod.ts';

const View = () => <div>Hello</div>;
(<View />).render().then(console.log);

Note: prefer using sermver tags version instead of master to avoid conflict with caching, e.g: import { jsx } from 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/apiel/jsx-html/1.0.0/mod.ts';.

Async component

Unlike React, components can be asynchrone, so you can fetch for data without to handle states.

import { React } from 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/apiel/jsx-html/master/mod.ts';

const Data = async () => {
    const res = await fetch('http://example.com/some/api');
    const content = new Uint8Array(await res.arrayBuffer());
    return <div>{content}</div>;
};

const View = () => (
    <div>
        <Data />
    </div>
);

(<View />).render().then(console.log);

InnerHTML

The Element property innerHTML sets the HTML or XML markup contained within the property.

In general, setting HTML from code is risky because it’s easy to inadvertently expose your users to a cross-site scripting (XSS) attack.

/// <reference path="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/apiel/jsx-html/master/jsx.d.ts" />

import { jsx } from 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/apiel/jsx-html/master/mod.ts';

const View = () => <div innerHTML="<b>hello</b> world" />;
(<View />).render().then(console.log); // will output <div><b>hello</b> world</div>

Browser

jsx-html can also be used directly in browser. Find an example with webpack here.
