I want to use .pug
and .jsx
as express view engine.
I tried it with other modules like @react-ssr/express
, but they didn't work.
(It seems that my project is based on a open source project that lastly updated a few years ago)
So, I'm using node-jsx
and react-engine
now, but these modules wouldn't let me use window
and document
.
(Like this screenshot)
I already tried many solutions through googling like the code below.
const React = require("react");
...
const Index = (props) => {
if (typeof window !== 'undefined') {
// code with document and window
}
}
module.exports = Index;
But blank page was rendered.
I think these modules just render and run my jsx file without any converting to javascript.
Is there no way to use window
and document
with node-jsx
and react-engine
?
(or please recommend me other modules)
server.js
require("node-jsx").install({ extension: '.jsx', harmony: true });
const renderer = require("react-engine");
const Engine = renderer.server.create();
...
app.set('views', __dirname + "/views");
app.engine('jsx', Engine);
app.set('view engine', "pug");
app.set('view engine', "jsx");
index.jsx
const React = require("react");
...
const Index = (props) => {
// code with document and window
}
module.exports = Index;
