# reunify

Document & develop React components without breaking a sweat

[![Build Status][build-badge]][build]

```sh
npm install -g reunify
```

[build-badge]: https://img.shields.io/travis/codecommission/reunify/master.svg?style=flat-square
[build]: https://travis-ci.org/codecommission/reunify

## Features

- Zero-config
- No plugins
- Components over configuration
- Automatic file system based routing
- Completely customizable
- Export static sites
- Works as an isolated development environment

## Getting Started

reunify renders a directory of React components, automatically handling routing based on filename.
Create a `docs` folder and add an `index.js` file.

```jsx
// index.js
import React from 'react';

export default class extends React.Component {
render() {
return

Hello

;
}
}
```

Start a development server by running:

```sh
reunify docs --open
```

To add more pages, add a new component for each route. For example, create an about page:

```jsx
// about.js
import React from 'react';

export default props =>

About

;
```

The about page should now render when navigating to .

## Isolated development environment

```sh
reunify docs
```

Options:

```
-o --open Open dev server in default browser
-p --port Custom port for dev server
-t --template Path to custom HTML template
--webpack Path to custom webpack configuration
```

```sh
reunify docs -op 8080
```

## Static build and export

Export static HTML and client-side bundle

```sh
reunify export docs
```

Export static HTML without bundle

```sh
reunify export docs --static
```

Options

```
-d --out-dir Output directory (default dist)
-s --static Output static HTML without JS bundle
-t --template Path to custom HTML template
--webpack Path to custom webpack configuration
```

## Fetching Data

Use the async `getInitialProps` static method to fetch data for static rendering.
This method was inspired by [Next.js][nextjs].

```jsx
const Index = props =>

Hello {props.data}

;

Index.getInitialProps = async () => {
const fetch = require('isomorphic-fetch');
const res = await fetch('http://example.com/data');
const data = await res.json();

return {data};
};
```

## Custom App

A custom `App` component can be provided by including an `_app.js` file.
The `App` component uses the [render props][render-props] pattern to provide additional state and props to its child routes.

[render-props]: https://reactjs.org/docs/render-props.html

```jsx
// example _app.js
import React from 'react';

export default class extends React.Component {
state = {
count: 0
};

update = fn => this.setState(fn);

render() {
const {render, routes} = this.props;

return render({
...this.state,
decrement: () => this.update(s => ({count: s.count - 1})),
increment: () => this.update(s => ({count: s.count + 1}))
});
}
}
```

### Layouts

The `App` component can also be used to provide a common layout for all routes.

```jsx
// example _app.js
import React from 'react';
import Nav from '../components/Nav';
import Header from '../components/Header';
import Footer from '../components/Footer';

export default class extends React.Component {
render() {
const {render, routes} = this.props;

const route = routes.find(route => route.path === props.location.pathname);

return (



{render()}


);
}
}
```

## CSS-in-JS

reunify supports server-side rendering for [styled-components][sc] and [emotion][emotion] with zero configuration.

### Styled Components

To enable CSS rendering for static export, ensure that `styled-components` is installed as a dependency in your `package.json`

```json
"dependencies": {
"styled-components": "^3.2.6"
}
```

### Emotion

Ensure `emotion` is installed as a dependency in your `package.json`

```json
"dependencies": {
"emotion": "^9.1.3"
}
```

## Configuration

Default options can be set in the `reunify` field in `package.json`.

```json
"reunify": {
"static": true,
"outDir": "site",
"title": "Hello",
}
```

## Head content

Head elements such as ``, ``, and `` can be configured with the `reunify` field in `package.json`.

```json
"reunify": {
"title": "My Site",
"meta": [
{ "name": "twitter:card", "content": "summary" }
{ "name": "twitter:image", "content": "kitten.png" }
],
"links": [
{
"rel": "stylesheet",
"href": "https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto"
}
]
}
```

## Custom HTML Template

A custom HTML template can be passed as the `template` option.

```json
"reunify": {
"template": "./html.js"
}
```

```js
// example template
module.exports = ({html, css, scripts, title, meta = [], links = [], static: isStatic}) => `<!DOCTYPE html>
<head>
<title>{title}</title>
${css}
</head>
<div id=root>${html}</div>
${scripts}
`;
```

### Routing

reunify creates routes based on the file system, using [react-router][react-router].
To set the base URL for static build and export, use the `basename` option.

```json
"reunify": {
"basename": "/my-site"
}
```

#### Links

To link between different components, install `react-router-dom` and use the `Link` component.

```sh
npm i react-router-dom
```

```js
import React from 'react';
import {Link} from 'react-router-dom';

export default () => (
<div>
<h1>Home</h1>
<nav>
<Link to="/">Home</Link>
<Link to="/about">About</Link>
</nav>
</div>
);
```

### JSX Format

Reunify includes support for the JSX file format.

```jsx
---
title: Hello
---
import { Box, Heading } from 'rebass'

<Box px={2} py={4}>
<Heading>
{frontMatter.title}
</Heading>
</Box>
```

### webpack

Webpack configuration files named `webpack.config.js` will automatically be merged with the built-in configuration, using [webpack-merge][webpack-merge].
To use a custom filename, pass the file path to the `--webpack` flag.

```js
// webpack.config.js example
module.exports = {
module: {
rules: [{test: /\.txt$/, loader: 'raw-loader'}]
}
};
```

See the [example](https://github.com/codecommission/reunify/tree/master/examples/webpack-config).
