cLient-side react for python

React

React is a implementation of React in Python using Brython. React application runs on the client side, which are written in Python 3. It's Component based and follows the same virtual DOM and Fiber architecture as ReactJS. React also supports PYX syntax which is equivalent to JSX in Javascript.

Getting Started

Creating a React app is very simple and the process in very much inspired from ReactJS. 1111

Installation

React has a PyPI package

pip install react-python

Setting Up

Once React is installed, then to setup boiler plate -

1. Create an empty folder for your application.
2. Then run the following command to Initialize React

react-cli --init

Setup live reload server

React comes with a simple live reload development server, to use start it -

react-cli --serve

This will start a development server at http://127.0.0.1:5500/

Create a deployment build

To create a deployment build of your application -

react-cli --build

This will create a build directory in project folder. Then this can be very easily deployed to services like Netlify Drop by uploading build folder for deployment.

Syntax Highlighting

To get syntax highlighting on.pyx files in React applications, install React Syntax Highlighter in VSCODE from Visual Studio Marketplace.

Passing Props

import React
from browser import document

def Greetings(props):
    return <h1>Hi, {" " + props["name"]}</h1>

element = <Greetings name="World!"/>
React.render(element, document.getElementById("root"))

Counter

import React
from browser import document

def Counter(props):
    count, setCount = React.useState(0)
    return  <div>
                <h1>Count :{count}</h1>
                <button onClick={lambda e: setCount(count + 1)}>+</button>
                <button onClick={lambda e: setCount(count - 1)}>-</button>
            </div>

element = <Counter/>
React.render(element, document.getElementById("root"))

Timer

import React
from browser import document
from browser.timer import set_interval, clear_interval

def Timer(props):
    seconds, setSeconds = React.useState(props["timelimit"])
    running, setRunning = React.useState(False)

    if seconds < 1:
        setRunning(False)

    def _tick():
        setSeconds(lambda s: s - 1)

    def __effect():
        if running:
            print("Set Interval")
            __interval = set_interval(_tick, 1000)
            return lambda: clear_interval(__interval)

    React.useEffect(__effect, [running])

    color = "red" if not running else "blue"

    return
        <div>
            <div style={{"color": color}}>Seconds : {seconds}</div>
            <button onClick={lambda e: setRunning(lambda r: not r)}>Start / Stop</button>
        </div>

element = <Timer timelimit={5}/>
React.render(element, document.getElementById("root"))

Live Input

import React
from browser import document

def LiveInput(props):
    value, setValue = React.useState("")

    return
        <div>
            <input value={value + ""} onInput={lambda e: setValue(e.target.value)}/>
            <h1>{value}</h1>
        </div>

element = <LiveInput/>
React.render(element, document.getElementById("root"))

API Call

import React
from React.utils import lmap
from browser import document
from browser.ajax import get

def UserCard(props):
    return <div style={{
            "border": "1px solid black",
            "padding": "5px",
            "margin": "10px",
        }}>
            <h2>{props["name"]}</h2>
            <p>email: {" " + props["email"]}</p>
            <p>website: {" " + props["website"]}</p>
        </div>

def UserList(props):
    users, setUsers = React.useState([])

    def __effect():
        def _on_complete(res):
            print(res.json)
            setUsers(res.json)

        get("https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/users", oncomplete = _on_complete)

    React.useEffect(__effect, [])

    return  <div>
                {lmap(
                    lambda x: <UserCard name={x["name"]} email={x["email"]} website={x["website"]}/>,
                    users
                ) if len(users) > 0 else <h1>Loading...</h1>}
            </div>

element = <UserList/>
