Support for custom elements #121

diffcunha · 2018-03-21T20:28:56Z

This PR adds the support for custom components (web components)

// MyComponent.js

class MyComponent extends HTMLElement {
  connectedCallback () {
    this._shadow = this.attachShadow({ mode: 'open' })
    this._shadow.appendChild(html`<span>Hello ${this.getAttribute('foo')}</span>`)
  }
}

MyComponent.tagName = 'my-component'

// MyParagraph.js

class MyParagraph extends HTMLParagraphElement {
  connectedCallback () {
    this._shadow = this.attachShadow({ mode: 'open' })
    this._shadow.appendChild(html`<strong>${this.children[0]}</strong>`)
  }
}

MyParagraph.tagName = 'my-paragraph'
MyParagraph.options = { extends: 'p' }

// index.js

var tree = html`
  <div>
    <${MyComponent} foo="bar"></${MyComponent}>
    <p is=${MyParagraph}><span>Lorem ipsum</span></p>
  </div>
`

I'm not feeling great about this line - the spec really just wants you to register elements once. This would register an element on every call.

It only registers if it isn't register yet if (!customElements.get(props.is.tagName))

yoshuawuyts · 2018-03-22T05:46:00Z

I'm open to landing this, but in order to do so it would need to include tests for client, server & transforms too. It's a pretty big patch, and I suspect there might be a few rough edges.

diffcunha · 2018-03-23T12:58:19Z

@yoshuawuyts PR updated, only babel transform is missing. @goto-bus-stop and @AndyOGo pushed a few commits replacing bel with nanohtml on tests. I was doing the same so there might be some weird things to be fixed

AndyOGo · 2018-03-23T13:30:26Z

@diffcunha Correct I refactored all tests, which where using bel instead of nanohtml.
I would suggest you pull and rebase your branch onto master to get the updated stuff.

diffcunha · 2018-03-23T14:30:16Z

@AndyOGo I rebased already. I have a question: how did you made the require('nanohtml') work in tests? Previously bel was available to be required because it’s a dep of choo and choo is a dep of this project. I had to use pathmodify plugin to provide nanohtml as a relative path.

AndyOGo · 2018-03-23T14:32:28Z

@diffcunha That's weird. Actually I did nothing... just run npm run test to check if it works, and it worked 🤔

goto-bus-stop · 2018-03-23T14:32:42Z

@diffcunha the transform output didn't use the main nanohtml import previously, so it didn't matter whether the import path could be resolved.

diffcunha · 2018-03-23T14:34:20Z

@goto-bus-stop that’s it! Thanks

These tests (svg and xlink:href) were removed since the createElement function is now responsible for handling those and not the transform itself

I'm not sure if this is supposed to be allowed as it creates ambiguity with props spread

var obj = { prop: 'value' } var tree = html`<button ${obj}>foobar</button>`

There is also some inconsistency within the previous implementations:

var x = 'disabled' var tx = html`<button ${x}>foobar</button>` // tx.outerHTML == <button disabled="disabled">foobar</button> var y = false var ty = html`<button disabled=${x}>foobar</button>` // ty.outerHTML == <button>foobar</button> tx.outerHTML !== ty.outerHTML

Regardless, I can spend some time making prop spread and this shorthand notation to work together

It is supposed to be allowed, yes

diffcunha · 2018-03-26T04:47:20Z

@yoshuawuyts PR updated. The major change here is that transformed code is generated around our createElement only instead of document.createElement and other auxiliary functions. One single implementation rather than 3 separate ones (browserify transform, babel plugin and template string runtime eval)

goto-bus-stop · 2018-03-26T15:42:56Z

Had to take some time to get used to this massive refactor, but I like the createElement change for sure 👍 appreciate your work on this!

+        window.customElements.define(props.is.tagName, props.is, props.is.options)
+      }


I don't think the renderer should be in charge of defining custom elements. I'm also worried about introducing nonstandard static properties on HTML element classes but it doesn't seem like there's a way around that. Having Component.tagName is fine, but IMO automagic registration and Component.options is not nanohtml's business

OK. In fact the tagName prop only serves the purpose of registration. I understand that registration shouldn't not be a concern of nanohtml, it will be then up to the dev to register the components before rendering

Sure registration is out of scope from nanohtml

choo aims to work in IE 11 + so we can't use ES6+ syntax in the transform output

OK, will fix that

Object.assign also doesn't exist yet in IE11 … choo uses the xtend module, that might be good (deduped = no extra bytes 🎉 ). maybe xtend can be exposed as nanohtml/lib/merge or so, and that can be required in the output, that way we don't add a peer dependency.

IE 11 will probably be dropped in choo 7 but not yet: choojs/choo#616

OK, will use xtend instead

        // html and choo/html have no other exports that may be used
-        node.edit.update('{}')
+        node.edit.update('{ createElement: require("' + path.join(node.arguments[0].value, '/lib/createElement") }'))


would it make sense to just do update('require("/path/to/createElement")') here and call that function directly as html() or createElement() (not renaming the variable is probably easier) instead of doing html.createElement?

choo/html is not going to have an export named choo/html/lib/createElement, and bel didn't have one either. maybe this should use require.resolve('./createElement') instead? or path.relative() from the input file

Yeah, that was my first idea, but then I thought it wouldn't be a good idea to "reuse" an already existent api. I mean, one might want to:

var html = require('nanohtml') var foo = function (strings, ...keys) { // do stuff return html(strings, ...keys) } var bar = html`<span>HELLO</span>`

You are absolutely right about bel and choo/html. Regarding choo/html, I could still replace with nanohtml/lib/createElement or something like it. Regarding bel, I'm not so sure but probably it won't be supported in this version on nanohtml given that it doesn't expose a createElement function

c-expression as in concat-expression. They should be probably called meta-expressions since that what they are

to only test if the tag is being created checking html.createElement("div", would be good but, not a big deal

I think we should just always output nanohtml/lib/createElement in the babel transform, only nanohtml exposes that. this means that transformed code will have a peer dependency on nanohtml, but that was also a limitation in the yo-yoify babel plugin.

I just submitted a relatively smaller PR #137 , which just adds support for is attribute (extended build-in elements as defined by custom elements V1 spec), please see #136

I think that should be all which is needed.
May I ask you to review it?
