ssr-boilerplate

Simple SSR boilerplate that just works.

Usage

npm run dev
npm start

Features

• Server side rendering
• Hot module replacement
• React Router
• React Helmet
• Dynamic component with @loadable/component

Define your routes

import Index from './components/index'
import List from './components/list'
import {getText} from './api'

const routes = [
  {
    path: '/',
    exact: true,
    component: Index,
  },
  {
    path: '/list',
    component: List,
    getInitialProps: async (context) => {
      context.text = await getText();
    }
  }
]

export default routes;

One addition is the getInitialProps, it's the async function that will run on server to inject remote data for your component.

Define your component.

Note: All React components must reside inside components folder.

import React from "react";
import Nav from './nav'
import {getText} from '../api'
export default class List extends React.Component {
  async componentDidMount() {
    const {text} = this.props
    if (!text) {
      const tmp = await getText()
      this.setState({
        text: tmp
      })
    }
  }

  constructor(props) {
    super(props)
    this.state = {
      text: props.text
    }
  }

  render() {
    const {text} = this.state
    return (
      <div>
        <Nav />
        {text && text.login}
      </div>
    )
  }
}

nav.js

import React from 'react'
import { Link } from 'react-router-dom'

const Nav = () => {
  return (
    <ul>
      <li><Link to="/">Home</Link></li>
      <li><Link to="/list">List</Link></li>
    </ul>
  )
}

export default Nav
