Kiwi is a template engine preprocessor that integrates React components into Java template engines. It simplifies the incorporation of React components within Java-based applications. This document provides an overview of the Kiwi project, its purpose, and an example of its usage.
Overview
Purpose
Kiwi aims to streamline the process of incorporating React components into Java-based projects that utilize template engines. By generating JavaScript code from provided HTML source files, Kiwi facilitates the seamless integration of React components, enhancing the development workflow for Java developers working with modern web technologies.
Example
source
import React from ‘react‘;
export default function Greeting ({ message, value, clickable }) {
return (<div>
<p>Message: {message}</p>
<p>Value: {value || 0}</p>
<p>{`Is ${!clikable && “not“} clikable`}</p>
</div>);
}
var source = “””
@import(‘Greeting’, ‘./components/Greeting’)
@render(<Greeting message=”Hello {{name}}!” value:num=”10″ />)
@render(<Greeting message=”Hello Strange” clickable:bool=”true” />)
“””;
var generator = KiwiCompiler.withDefault();
String output = generator.generateJs(source);
String htmlOutput = generator.generateHtml(source);
generated html
<div data-kiwi-id=“Greeting626337202” data-prop-message=“Hello Strange” data-prop-clickable=“true”></div>
generated Js
