A router for micro-frontends
- A hash router for server-side rendered views.
- All components are lazy-loaded, with promises and/or dynamic imports.
- No building step, use
templatetag to define the routes. - Use custom elements to access components within routes.
loading,error,default(404 not found) templates are available.
ticker: a component made with vanilla js. Sourcecounter: a component made with superfine. Sourcetodo: a component made with hyperapp. Sourceerror: a component made with vanilla js that throws an error or rejects a promise after some delay. Source

</html>microspa(root, components) -> promise stop?
Note that microspa is also a component.
The DOM element where the router should be mounted.
An object where the keys are the component names and the values are component functions or strings with a URL to an import.
The name of the components must be written in
camel case,
and you can use the name of the routes object that way.
But if you use it in an html view, it will convert to
kebab case
starting with ms-.
someComp -> ms-some-comp
A function that stops the router. It will call the stop function of all
components on the screen, and then the router will stop.
Definition:
Component(element, params) -> promise stop?
element: The DOM element where it should be mounted.params: An object with the params passed to the component.stop: An optional function that stops the component when it is called.
Example:
const ticker = (root, {start, delay}) => {
start = (isNaN(start) ? 0 : parseInt(start)) - 1
const update = () => {
root.innerHTML = `<h1>Tick: ${++start}</h1>`
console.log('tick: '+start)
}
update()
const interval = setInterval(update, (delay || 1) * 1000)
return () => {clearInterval(interval)}
}This definition should handle the custom element case:
<ms-ticker count="20" delay="3"></ms-ticker>And it should also handle the case of the url:
#/ticker?count=20&delay=3
Another example:
const counter = (node, {start}) => import("https://unpkg.com/superfine")
.then(({h, text, patch}) => {
const setState = state => patch(
node,
h(node.tagName.toLowerCase(), {}, [
h("h1", {}, text(state)),
h("button", { onclick: () => setState(state - 1) }, text("-")),
h("button", { onclick: () => setState(state + 1) }, text("+")),
])
)
setState(isNaN(start) ? 0 : parseInt(start))
})Here we use dynamic imports to load the framework. Ideally, all dependencies can be loaded this way. For example, you can see some similarity in this paradigm in qwik
Everything within this documentation is tested here. And it will always like this. Any changes to the documentation, any contributions MUST be present in the tests.
It's a very simple project. Any contribution, any feedback is greatly appreciated.
