react-tags-brunch

Adds React.js tag interpolation to brunch.

Scans your javascript and replaces calls to this.div to React.DOM.div (div used as an example, will interpolate any tag found in React.DOM)

I use this with CoffeeScript to make writing components more joyful.

MyComponent= React.createClass
  displayName: 'MyComponent'

  render: ->
    (@div null, "Hello")

module.exports= MyComponent

Eventual output:

var MyComponent;

MyComponent = React.createClass({
  displayName: 'MyComponent',
  render: function() {
    return React.DOM.div(null, "Hello");
  }
});

module.exports = MyComponent;

Optional Configuration

Example brunch-config.coffee:

exports.config =
  plugins:
    reactTags:
      fileFilter: /^(app|test)/
      blacklist: 'object data map var'.split(' ')
      verbose: no

  # Usual brunch config stuf...
  files:
    javascripts:
      joinTo: 'app.js'
    stylesheets:
      joinTo: 'app.css'
    templates:
      joinTo: 'app.js'

Blacklist

There are some dom components that mean something special to javascript (var), require a non-dot-notation syntax to use, or are just too common in typical component definition (map). For these components you'll need to postfix the nodename with an underscore (_), like this:

render: ->
  (@object_ null)

render: function() {
  return React.DOM.object(null)
}

React Coffee

If you use the elucidata-react-coffee micro-lib, you can use CoffeeScript classes (and the editor tooling around them) to define React Components:

class MyComponent extends React.Component
  render: ->
    (@div null, "Hello")

module.exports= MyComponent.reactify()

Usage

Install the plugin via npm with npm install --save react-tags-brunch.

Or, do manual install:

• Add "react-tags-brunch": "x.y.z" to package.json of your brunch app. Pick a plugin version that corresponds to your minor (y) brunch version.
• If you want to use git version of plugin, add "react-tags-brunch": "git+ssh://git@github.com:brunch/react-tags-brunch.git".
