JSX Control

This has been deprecated in favour of https://github.com/valtech-au/jsx-control-statements now that it supports nesting

A JSTransform that adds syntactical sugar that turns <If> and <For> elements into control statements.

Usage

If

<If condition={this.props.banner}>
  <Banner />
 </If>

turns into...

{function() {
  if (this.props.banner) {
    return (<Banner />)
  }
}.call(this)}

The <If> body must return a single JSX root element. You can even nest!

<If condition={this.props.banner}>
  <div className="banner">
    <Banner />
    <If condition={this.props.user && this.props.user.avatar}>
      <Picture avatar={this.props.user.avatar} />
    </If>
  </div>
</If>

For

<For each="fruit" of={this.props.fruits}>
  <li key={fruit}>{fruit}</li>
</For>

this becomes

this.props.fruits.map(function(fruit) { return (
  <li key={fruit}>{fruit}</li>
)}, this)

Installation

  npm install jsx-control

Webpack

A visitorList is available through jsx-control/visitors, which can be used in conjunction with JSTransform Loader.

Browserify

Include 'jsx-control/browserify' in your transform array

node-jsx

The transform can be added during the install function of node-jsx

var jsxControl = require('jsx-control');
require('node-jsx').install({
  extension: '.jsx',
  additionalTransform: function(src) {
    return jsxControl(src);
  }
});

Thanks!

to valtech-au/jsx-control-statements for the inspiration! This module is slightly different in that it eschews <Else> in favour of nested <Ifs>, as well as constructing the statements slightly differently.
