A framework for building web apps with React.
Open with mobile device or emulate mobile in developer tools
npm install react-web --save
Inside your webpack configuration, alias the react-native
package to the react-web
package, then install and add haste-resolver-webpack-plugin plugin.
// webpack.config.js
var HasteResolverPlugin = require('haste-resolver-webpack-plugin');
module.exports = {
resolve: {
alias: {
'react-native': 'react-web'
}
},
plugins: [
new HasteResolverPlugin({
platform: 'web',
nodeModules: ['react-web']
})
]
}
See more detail of the
webpack.config.js
from React Native Web Example
When using components of react-web
, just require('ReactActivityIndicator')
, and Webpack will build a bundle with ActivityIndicator.web.js
for web platform.
HasteResolverPlugin
will do the following for you:
- Walk over all components and check out the
@providesModule
info. - When webpack build bundle, it makes your components recognised rather than throwing an error.
- It will help webpack build bundle with correct file depending on the target platform.
You can find something like @providesModule ReactActivityIndicator
on react-web
component's comment, yes, it's for HasteResolverPlugin
.
Two ways to require modules.
var React = require('react-native');
var {
AppRegistry,
StyleSheet,
View,
Platform,
} = React;
This reference method looks like we're in the way of using the native react-native way:
Like the require module in Node.js, and through Destructuring assignment, allows some components to be referenced in the scope of the current file.
But in fact it is quite different in React Web.
When require('react-native')
, in the construction of the webpack will be renamed, equivalent to require('react-web')
.
At the same time, this form of writing will put all the components into at one time, including ReactAppRegistry
ReactView
and so on, even some components the you did not use.
var AppRegistry = require('ReactAppRegistry');
var View = require('ReactView');
var Text = require('ReactText');
var Platform = require('ReactPlatform');
In this way, we load our components on demand, such as ReactAppRegistry
or ReactView
and so on.
Packaged components so that we no longer need to care about the differences between the platform.
As mentioned above, the HasteResolverPlugin plugin will help webpack to compile and package the code.
- Native events without direct pageX/pageY on web platform
if (Platform.OS == 'web') {
var touch = event.nativeEvent.changedTouches[0];
pageX = touch.pageX;
pageY = touch.pageY;
} else {
startX = event.nativeEvent.pageX;
startY = event.nativeEvent.pageY;
}
- Should run application on web platform
AppRegistry.registerComponent('Game2048', () => Game2048);
if(Platform.OS == 'web'){
var app = document.createElement('div');
document.body.appendChild(app);
AppRegistry.runApplication('Game2048', {
rootTag: app
})
}
- Should care about fetch domain on web platform
var fetch = Platform.OS === 'web'? require('ReactJsonp'): require('ReactFetch');
- Component without setNativeProps method on web platform
var setNativeProps = require('ReactSetNativeProps')
setNativeProps(this.refs.foo, {
style: {
top: 0
}
})
- Without
LayoutAnimation
on web platform
var LayoutAnimation = require('ReactLayoutAnimation')
if(Platform.OS !== 'web'){
LayoutAnimation.configureNext(...)
}
- Linting - npm run lint - Must run it before commit.
- Testing - npm test - Run unit testing by jest.
- Developing - npm start - This will run a server at localhost:3000 and use Hot Module Reloading.
- Demo deployment - npm run demo - Generate demo assets under pages directory.
