# babel-plugin-transform-react-pug
Use Pug templates to write react components.
[](https://www.npmjs.com/package/babel-plugin-transform-react-pug) [](https://travis-ci.org/pugjs/babel-plugin-transform-react-pug) [
](https://codecov.io/gh/pugjs/babel-plugin-transform-react-pug)
`babel-plugin-transform-react-pug` is a plugin for babel which transpiles pug syntax within template literals to jsx.
Write your components this way:
```jsx
export const ReactComponent = props => pug`
.wrapper
if props.shouldShowGreeting
p.greeting Hello World!
button(onClick=props.notify) Click Me
`
```
And it will be transpiled into:
```jsx
export const ReactComponent = props => (
{props.shouldShowGreeting ? (
Hello World!
) : null}
Click Me
)
```

## Usage
### Syntax
Full information of the syntax you can find in official documentation: [pugjs.org](https://pugjs.org/).
#### Basic example
```jsx
const Component = props => pug` //- const Component = props => (
div //-
if props.amount > MAX_AMOUNT //- {props.amount > MAX_AMOUNT ? (
OtherComponent(fluid crucial) //-
else //- ) : (
p You can set bigger amount ;) //- You can set bigger amount ;)
//- )}
each item, index in props.items //- {props.items.map((item, index) => (
div(key=item.id) //-
h3 Header #{index + 1} //- Header {index + 1}
= item.body //- {item.body}
//-
//- )}
//-
//- )
`;
```
#### How to pass functions and other primitives
```jsx
const Component = props => pug` //- const Component = props => (
div //-
button( //- Click Me
//-
OtherComponent( //-
//-
//- )
`;
```
#### Define local variables and use javascript in attributes
```jsx
const Component = props => pug` //- const Component = props => (
Fragment //-
button( //- alert('Hello') //- onClick={() => alert('Hello')}
text='number ' + 10 //- text={'number ' + 10}
condition=foo === bar ? foo : bar //- condition={foo === bar ? foo : bar}
) //- >
//-
- const variable = format(props.no) //-
p Variable is #{variable} //-
Variable is {format(props.no)}
//-
//- )
`;
```
#### Interpolation
If you'd prefer to use interpolation, you can. This is possible by using `${}` within your template.
```jsx
const Component = props => pug`
ul(className=${props.modifier})
${props.items.map((item, index) => pug`li(key=${index}) ${item}`)}
`;
```
### Eslint integration
Install [eslint-plugin-react-pug](https://github.com/ezhlobo/eslint-plugin-react-pug) if you use [eslint-plugin-react](https://github.com/yannickcr/eslint-plugin-react).
### CSS Modules
Whether you use babel plugin to turn on CSS Modules specifically for JSX (e.g. [babel-plugin-react-css-modules](https://github.com/gajus/babel-plugin-react-css-modules)) or use webpack loader for that to transform styles into key-value object, it's possible to use it with pug.
* With [babel-plugin-react-css-modules](https://github.com/gajus/babel-plugin-react-css-modules) you need to set [`classAttribute`](#classattribute) option to `styleName` value and that's it.
```rc
{
"plugins": [
["transform-react-pug", {
"classAttribute": "styleName"
}]
]
}
```
```jsx
import './styles.css' // .hello{color:red}
const withCorrectStyles = pug`
div.hello I am a red text
`
```
* With webpack loader or other approaches which transform styles into object
```jsx
import classes from './styles.css' // .hello{color:green}
const withCorrectStyles = pug`
div(className=classes.hello) I am a green text
`
```
The developer experience can be improved here by setting [`classAttribute`](#classattribute) option to `styleName` value and adding [babel-plugin-transform-jsx-css-modules](https://github.com/ezhlobo/babel-plugin-transform-jsx-css-modules)
```rc
{
"plugins": [
["transform-react-pug", {
"classAttribute": "styleName"
}],
"transform-jsx-css-modules"
]
}
```
```jsx
import './styles.css' // .hello{color:green}
const withCorrectStyles = pug`
div.hello I am a green text
`
```
## Install
1. Install via yarn or npm
```
yarn add --dev babel-plugin-transform-react-pug
```
```
npm install --save-dev babel-plugin-transform-react-pug
```
2. Add to babel configuration before transpiling jsx (usually in `.babelrc`)
```
{
"plugins": [
"transform-react-pug",
"transform-react-jsx"
]
}
```
3. Now all your templates written with pug are understood by react and browsers.
### Configuration
| Name | Type | Default | Description
| - | - | - | -
| [`classAttribute`](#classattribute) | `String` | `className` | Attribute name which considered by PUG as "class"
#### `classAttribute`
Default:
```
pug`p.one`
=>
```
With "styleName" as value:
```
pug`p.one`
=>
```
### create-react-app
Integrating with [create-react-app][link to cra] is tricky because it does not allow you to modify babel configuration. There are two documented possibilities:
* [eject][link to cra eject]
That is easy, you will get `.babelrc` file in your root directory, just add `transform-react-pug` before `transform-react-jsx` there.
* [react-app-rewired][link to rewired cra]
Go through official instruction to rewire your application. Then modify your `config-overrides.js`:
```diff
+ const {injectBabelPlugin} = require('react-app-rewired');
module.exports = function override(config, env) {
- //do stuff with the webpack config...
+ config = injectBabelPlugin('transform-react-pug', config);
return config;
}
```

[link to rewired cra]: https://github.com/timarney/react-app-rewired#1-injectbabelplugin
### React Native
Just add this plugin to the list in `.babelrc` file.
```diff
{
- "presets": ["react-native"]
+ "presets": ["react-native"],
+ "plugins": ["transform-react-pug"]
}
```
_We don't need `transform-react-jsx` here because it's coming with `react-native` preset._
## How it works
_Coming soon..._
## Limitations
* We can't use dots in component names because pugjs treats everything after dot as a className. For example, `React.Fragment` becomes ``, not ``
A nice workaround is made by [babel-plugin-transform-jsx-classname-components](https://github.com/ezhlobo/babel-plugin-transform-jsx-classname-components). Just add it to `.babelrc`:
```rc
{
"plugins": [
["transform-jsx-classname-components", {
"objects": ["React"]
}]
]
}
```
* We don't support html language in pug templates. This is different than [what Pug promises](https://pugjs.org/language/plain-text.html#inline-in-a-tag).
However, you can still use [tag interpolation](https://pugjs.org/language/interpolation.html#tag-interpolation):
```pug
p Good #[strong Morning]
```
## FAQ
### Can I import template from other files?
The short answer is no and we are not going to implement that in near future. Take a look at [initial request with small explanation (#15)](https://github.com/pugjs/babel-plugin-transform-react-pug/issues/15).
### How to get syntax highlighting in IDE (or text editors)?
* [WebStorm](#webstorm)
* [Atom](#atom)
* [Visual Studio Code](#visual-studio-code)
#### WebStorm
1. Open settings
2. **"Editor"** -> **"Language Injections"**
3. Click on **Add new "Generic Js"** injection
*[See how to find this section (youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/WEB-22106#focus=streamItem-27-2451611-0-0)](https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/WEB-22106#focus=streamItem-27-2451611-0-0)*
* Name: `Pug In Template Literals (JavaScript)`
* ID: `Vue (Vue.js template)` (current version of pug plugin is created in HTML scope, so we use workaround here)
* Prefix: ``
* Suffix: ``
* Places Patterns: `+ taggedString("pug")`
4. Click "OK" and "Apply"
#### Atom
1. Install [language-babel](https://atom.io/packages/language-babel) and [language-pug-jade](https://atom.io/packages/language-pug-jade)
_I suggest language-pug-jade because it works better for me. But there are more approaches for building pugjs grammar: [language-pug](https://atom.io/packages/language-pug) and [atom-pug](https://atom.io/packages/atom-pug), and you can try them too._
2. Open settings of language-babel in atom
3. Find the field under "JavaScript Tagged Template Literal Grammar Extensions"
4. Enter: `pug:source.pug`
More details: [gandm/language-babel#javascript-tagged-template-literal-grammar-extensions](https://github.com/gandm/language-babel#javascript-tagged-template-literal-grammar-extensions)
5. Restart the atom
#### Visual Studio Code
1. Open settings of extensions
2. Search "[vscode-react-pug](https://github.com/kaminaly/vscode-react-pug)" by the search field
3. Click "Install" and "Reload"
4. If you use any grammar other than default one (e.g. Babel JavaScript which is quite popular), you might need to add supporting of Atom's Grammar ([Microsoft/vscode-js-atom-grammar](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-vscode.js-atom-grammar)).
