ReactJS.NET 1.2

November 22, 2014 by Daniel Lo Nigro


I'm happy to announce the release of ReactJS.NET 1.2! This is a minor release and includes a number of changes and fixes since version 1.1.3:

  • Basic source map support. Source maps will now be available when accessing .jsx files directly. It's not supported for combined/minified files at the moment since none of the common .NET minifiers support source maps. (#8)
  • React version upgraded from 0.12.0 to 0.12.1.

Server-side rendering:

  • The HTML tag used as the component's container can now be changed. Previously it was hardcoded to be a div. (#45)
  • The ID of the container element can now be changed. Previously it was always an auto-generated ID in the format "react1", "react2", etc. (#50)
  • New Html.ReactWithInit helper method to render both the HTML component and its client-side JavaScript initialisation script. This is useful when rendering self-contained partial views containing React components. Thanks to BartAdv. (#42)

Under the hood:

  • Allow custom JsonSerializerSettings to be provided. *Thanks to BartAdv. (#43)
  • Switch various methods from private to protected virtual so they can be overridden. (#39)
  • Use newer React factory syntax for instantiating components. (#46)

Have fun, and as always, please feel free to send feedback or bug reports on GitHub.
