What is this?

This package is a unified (recma) that can turn JSX into JavaScript.

When should I use this?

Use this when preparing JSX for evaluation. JSX cannot be evaluated without being transformed first.

If you don’t use plugins and access syntax trees manually, you can directly use estree-util-build-jsx, which is used inside this plugin. recma focusses on making it easier to transform code by abstracting such internals away.

Install

This package is ESM only. In Node.js (version 16+), install with npm:

npm install recma-build-jsx

In Deno with esm.sh:

import recmaBuildJsx from 'https://esm.sh/recma-build-jsx@1'

In browsers with esm.sh:

<script type="module">
  import recmaBuildJsx from 'https://esm.sh/recma-build-jsx@1?bundle'
</script>

Use

Say we have the following module example.js:

import recmaBuildJsx from 'recma-build-jsx'
import recmaJsx from 'recma-jsx'
import recmaParse from 'recma-parse'
import recmaStringify from 'recma-stringify'
import {unified} from 'unified'

const file = await unified()
  .use(recmaParse)
  .use(recmaJsx)
  .use(recmaBuildJsx)
  .use(recmaStringify)
  .process('console.log(<em>Hi!</em>)')

console.log(String(file))

…running that with node example.js yields:

console.log(React.createElement("em", null, "Hi!"));

API

This package exports no identifiers. The default export is recmaBuildJsx.

`unified().use(recmaBuildJsx[, options])`

Plugin to build JSX.

Parameters

options (Options, optional) — configuration

Returns

Transform (Transformer).

`Options`

Configuration (TypeScript type).

Same as Options from estree-util-build-jsx. Passing filePath is not supported as it is handled for you.

Types

This package is fully typed with TypeScript. It exports the additional type Options.

Compatibility

Projects maintained by the unified collective are compatible with maintained versions of Node.js.

When we cut a new major release, we drop support for unmaintained versions of Node. This means we try to keep the current release line, recma-build-jsx@1, compatible with Node.js 16.

Security

As recma works on JS and evaluating JS is unsafe, use of recma can also be unsafe. Do not evaluate unsafe code.
