Live version

This example demonstrates isomorphic, @thi.ng/hiccup-based server-side rendering, static file generation and an extended interactive browser version of a git repo commit log. The server is a simple express app.

There're 3 versions in this example:

  1. A server app which generates a static HTML version of the commit table, performs caching and provides a route for retrieving the commits as JSON. This server also includes the Parcel middleware to allow editing the client without having to restart the server.
  2. A browser app which constructs the table client-side from the JSON version of the commits
  3. A node app which generates a static HTML file

All of the UI components used on the server side too work in the browser without change, though the browser version has additional functionality (i.e. interactive filtering of commits via user provided search filter).

The server example builds a large table (~700KB worth of HTML) of this repo's 1460+ commits by shelling out to git to retrieve and transform the raw history / log using transducer pipelines. Since this process doesn't need to be performed for each server request, the app uses TLRUCaches to cache both the raw commits and the rendered HTML. Reloading the page will show the timing difference.

To use another local repo on your hard drive, update the settings here.

Building & running

Server-side rendering

See /src/server/index.ts for details...

git clone https://github.com/thi-ng/umbrella.git
cd umbrella/examples/commit-table-ssr
yarn install
yarn start

Then open http://localhost:8080/ssr in your browser.

Browser version

The browser version uses the same UI components, but realizes them via @thi.ng/hdom.

In addition to the SSR version above, this version displays additional repo stats and allows for interactive filtering of the commits. The commits themselves are loaded as JSON which are provided by the server app above.

Furthermore, this version utilizes @thi.ng/rstream to build a simple dataflow graph and handle app state changes via various reactive stream constructs. Comments are included.

See /src/client/index.ts for details...

yarn start

Once you see a message that the server is running and the client app has been built, open http://localhost:8080 in your browser.

Static file generation

The result will be saved to table.html in this example's root directory.

See /src/server/static.ts for details...

yarn build-static
