react-code-producer

     

An npm package to generate React code snippets for Component, functions etc.

Table of contents

• Getting started

• Examples (code samples)

  • Example 1 - Single Component

  • Example 2 - Single Component, 2nd usage style

  • Example 3 - Multiple Components

Generate code at terminal &

• copy and use it to quickly test what you learned (beginners)

• use in projects or other developement environment if your editor/IDE does have any plugins etc. (professionals)

• Other usages e.g. to test functionality in scripts etc. (beginners, professionals)

  As I have shown here, how I directly copied the Box component and pasted directly above ReactDOM.render(...) statement.

  The thing is, before copy paste work, you have to configure settings at Codepen.

  Just setup you Babel transpiler, add React libraries and then try as shown in the below image.

Note

• React uses different style to add comments among JSX code. So please write code after

{ 
    /* Add elements here */ 
    
}

React comment statement, not just inside the curly braces while using the copied in your React application.

Getting started

• npm install react-code-producer --save

  Installs locally

• npm install react-code-producer --global

  Installs globally

Examples (Code samples)

Example 1 - Single Component

Code code.js

const ReactCodeProducer = require("react-code-producer")

let App = new ReactCodeProducer()

console.log(App.getComponentCode('App'))

Output node code.js

import React from 'react';
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';

// React Component class `App`
class App extends React.Component {
    render() {
        return (
            <div className="App">
                { 
                    /* Add elements here */ 
                }

            </div>
        )
    }
}

Example 2 - Single Component, 2nd usage style

Code code.js, (Automatic class name conversion, if it looks improper)

const ReactCodeProducer = require("react-code-producer")

let App = new ReactCodeProducer()

console.log(App.getComponentCode('box'))

Output node code.js

import React from 'react';
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';

// React Component class `Box`
class Box extends React.Component {
    render() {
        return (
            <div className="Box">
                { 
                    /* Add elements here */ 
                }

            </div>
        )
    }
}

export default Box;

Example 3 - Multiple Components

Code code.js

const ReactCodeProducer = require("react-code-producer")

let AppIndex = new ReactCodeProducer({
    component: {
        code: true,
        names: [
            'App',
            'Index'
        ]
    }
})

console.log(AppIndex.code)

Output node code.js

import React from 'react';
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';

// React Component class `App`
class App extends React.Component {
    render() {
        return (
            <div className="App">
                { 
                    /* Add elements here */ 
                }

            </div>
        )
    }
}

// React Component class `Index`
class Index extends React.Component {
    render() {
        return (
            <div className="Index">
                { 
                    /* Add elements here */ 
                }

            </div>
        )
    }
}

export default App;
export default Index;
