Async rendering on the server? #143
-
|
Hello! I was playing around with nano-jsx and tried to render some components on the server, it works great! The only thing that I was not been able to do is to render async components like this: const ComponentWithPromise = async () => {
const message: string = await new Promise((resolve) => {
setTimeout(() => {
resolve('Hello World With Promise')
}, 500)
})
return <div>{message}</div>
}Is there a way to do this? |

You can't render asynchronously inside But you can do the following: class ComponentWithPromise extends Component {
static async message() {
const message: string = await new Promise(resolve => {
setTimeout(() => {
resolve('Hello World With Promise')
}, 500)
})
return message
}
render() {
return <div>{this.props.message}</div>
}
}
const main = async () => {
const message = await ComponentWithPromise.message()
const app = renderSSR(<ComponentWithPromise message={message} />)
console.log(app)
}
main() |

Thank you for the response! I got it, the component may be deeply nested so this is not really an option. I’ve read somewhere in issues that you experimented with async rendering, but so far it did not see a release yet? |

You can easily send data deeply down: // import _state from somewhere from nano-jsx
import { _state } from '../state.js'
const getData = () => new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(() => resolve('hello'), 1000))
class App extends Component {
render() {
return (
<ul>
<li>Nano JSX App</li>
<li>second</li>
<li>{_state.get('some-unique-key')}</li>
</ul>
)
}
}
const main = async () => {
const data = await getData()
const app = renderSSR(() => {
_state.set('some-unique-key', data)
return <App />
})
console.log(app)
}
main()
I have experimented with it. But the way nano-jsx is build, it is not possible to add it. I would have to make too many breaking changes. And I like how it is now. There is always a way around async components, by knowing when and where you need the data. |
