middleman-react

Use React JSX transformations with Middleman.

Inspired (and pretty much a clone of really) the react-rails gem for Middleman. This gem allows you to write and use *.jsx assets inside Middleman.

Usage

1. gem install middleman-react
2. activate :react in config.rb

Options

It is also possible to pass options through to the JSX compiler if that’s your thing:

activate :react do |config|
  config.harmony = true
  config.strip_types = true
end

Sprockets loading react-source

In your Middleman config.rb add the following:

after_configuration do
  sprockets.append_path File.dirname(::React::Source.bundled_path_for('react.js'))
end

Now you can Sprockets include React:

//= require react

Or with addons:

//= require react-with-addons

A note on versioning

The version for this gem will reflect that of the underlying version of react-source, meaning that using 0.12.1 of this gem will give you version 0.12.1 of React. This is the same approach that react-rails takes. If updates to the gem code are required that do not alter the react-source version in use need to be made they will be released with a .x version appended, eg: 0.12.1.x.
