|
| 1 | +Welcome to your new TanStack Start app! |
| 2 | + |
| 3 | +# Getting Started |
| 4 | + |
| 5 | +To run this application: |
| 6 | + |
| 7 | +```bash |
| 8 | +bun install |
| 9 | +bun --bun run dev |
| 10 | +``` |
| 11 | + |
| 12 | +# Building For Production |
| 13 | + |
| 14 | +To build this application for production: |
| 15 | + |
| 16 | +```bash |
| 17 | +bun --bun run build |
| 18 | +``` |
| 19 | + |
| 20 | +## Testing |
| 21 | + |
| 22 | +This project uses [Vitest](https://vitest.dev/) for testing. You can run the tests with: |
| 23 | + |
| 24 | +```bash |
| 25 | +bun --bun run test |
| 26 | +``` |
| 27 | + |
| 28 | +## Styling |
| 29 | + |
| 30 | +This project uses [Tailwind CSS](https://tailwindcss.com/) for styling. |
| 31 | + |
| 32 | +### Removing Tailwind CSS |
| 33 | + |
| 34 | +If you prefer not to use Tailwind CSS: |
| 35 | + |
| 36 | +1. Remove the demo pages in `src/routes/demo/` |
| 37 | +2. Replace the Tailwind import in `src/styles.css` with your own styles |
| 38 | +3. Remove `tailwindcss()` from the plugins array in `vite.config.ts` |
| 39 | +4. Uninstall the packages: `bun install @tailwindcss/vite tailwindcss -D` |
| 40 | + |
| 41 | + |
| 42 | + |
| 43 | +## Routing |
| 44 | + |
| 45 | +This project uses [TanStack Router](https://tanstack.com/router) with file-based routing. Routes are managed as files in `src/routes`. |
| 46 | + |
| 47 | +### Adding A Route |
| 48 | + |
| 49 | +To add a new route to your application just add a new file in the `./src/routes` directory. |
| 50 | + |
| 51 | +TanStack will automatically generate the content of the route file for you. |
| 52 | + |
| 53 | +Now that you have two routes you can use a `Link` component to navigate between them. |
| 54 | + |
| 55 | +### Adding Links |
| 56 | + |
| 57 | +To use SPA (Single Page Application) navigation you will need to import the `Link` component from `@tanstack/react-router`. |
| 58 | + |
| 59 | +```tsx |
| 60 | +import { Link } from "@tanstack/react-router"; |
| 61 | +``` |
| 62 | + |
| 63 | +Then anywhere in your JSX you can use it like so: |
| 64 | + |
| 65 | +```tsx |
| 66 | +<Link to="/about">About</Link> |
| 67 | +``` |
| 68 | + |
| 69 | +This will create a link that will navigate to the `/about` route. |
| 70 | + |
| 71 | +More information on the `Link` component can be found in the [Link documentation](https://tanstack.com/router/v1/docs/framework/react/api/router/linkComponent). |
| 72 | + |
| 73 | +### Using A Layout |
| 74 | + |
| 75 | +In the File Based Routing setup the layout is located in `src/routes/__root.tsx`. Anything you add to the root route will appear in all the routes. The route content will appear in the JSX where you render `{children}` in the `shellComponent`. |
| 76 | + |
| 77 | +Here is an example layout that includes a header: |
| 78 | + |
| 79 | +```tsx |
| 80 | +import { HeadContent, Scripts, createRootRoute } from '@tanstack/react-router' |
| 81 | + |
| 82 | +export const Route = createRootRoute({ |
| 83 | + head: () => ({ |
| 84 | + meta: [ |
| 85 | + { charSet: 'utf-8' }, |
| 86 | + { name: 'viewport', content: 'width=device-width, initial-scale=1' }, |
| 87 | + { title: 'My App' }, |
| 88 | + ], |
| 89 | + }), |
| 90 | + shellComponent: ({ children }) => ( |
| 91 | + <html lang="en"> |
| 92 | + <head> |
| 93 | + <HeadContent /> |
| 94 | + </head> |
| 95 | + <body> |
| 96 | + <header> |
| 97 | + <nav> |
| 98 | + <Link to="/">Home</Link> |
| 99 | + <Link to="/about">About</Link> |
| 100 | + </nav> |
| 101 | + </header> |
| 102 | + {children} |
| 103 | + <Scripts /> |
| 104 | + </body> |
| 105 | + </html> |
| 106 | + ), |
| 107 | +}) |
| 108 | +``` |
| 109 | + |
| 110 | +More information on layouts can be found in the [Layouts documentation](https://tanstack.com/router/latest/docs/framework/react/guide/routing-concepts#layouts). |
| 111 | + |
| 112 | +## Server Functions |
| 113 | + |
| 114 | +TanStack Start provides server functions that allow you to write server-side code that seamlessly integrates with your client components. |
| 115 | + |
| 116 | +```tsx |
| 117 | +import { createServerFn } from '@tanstack/react-start' |
| 118 | + |
| 119 | +const getServerTime = createServerFn({ |
| 120 | + method: 'GET', |
| 121 | +}).handler(async () => { |
| 122 | + return new Date().toISOString() |
| 123 | +}) |
| 124 | + |
| 125 | +// Use in a component |
| 126 | +function MyComponent() { |
| 127 | + const [time, setTime] = useState('') |
| 128 | + |
| 129 | + useEffect(() => { |
| 130 | + getServerTime().then(setTime) |
| 131 | + }, []) |
| 132 | + |
| 133 | + return <div>Server time: {time}</div> |
| 134 | +} |
| 135 | +``` |
| 136 | + |
| 137 | +## API Routes |
| 138 | + |
| 139 | +You can create API routes by using the `server` property in your route definitions: |
| 140 | + |
| 141 | +```tsx |
| 142 | +import { createFileRoute } from '@tanstack/react-router' |
| 143 | +import { json } from '@tanstack/react-start' |
| 144 | + |
| 145 | +export const Route = createFileRoute('/api/hello')({ |
| 146 | + server: { |
| 147 | + handlers: { |
| 148 | + GET: () => json({ message: 'Hello, World!' }), |
| 149 | + }, |
| 150 | + }, |
| 151 | +}) |
| 152 | +``` |
| 153 | + |
| 154 | +## Data Fetching |
| 155 | + |
| 156 | +There are multiple ways to fetch data in your application. You can use TanStack Query to fetch data from a server. But you can also use the `loader` functionality built into TanStack Router to load the data for a route before it's rendered. |
| 157 | + |
| 158 | +For example: |
| 159 | + |
| 160 | +```tsx |
| 161 | +import { createFileRoute } from '@tanstack/react-router' |
| 162 | + |
| 163 | +export const Route = createFileRoute('/people')({ |
| 164 | + loader: async () => { |
| 165 | + const response = await fetch('https://swapi.dev/api/people') |
| 166 | + return response.json() |
| 167 | + }, |
| 168 | + component: PeopleComponent, |
| 169 | +}) |
| 170 | + |
| 171 | +function PeopleComponent() { |
| 172 | + const data = Route.useLoaderData() |
| 173 | + return ( |
| 174 | + <ul> |
| 175 | + {data.results.map((person) => ( |
| 176 | + <li key={person.name}>{person.name}</li> |
| 177 | + ))} |
| 178 | + </ul> |
| 179 | + ) |
| 180 | +} |
| 181 | +``` |
| 182 | + |
| 183 | +Loaders simplify your data fetching logic dramatically. Check out more information in the [Loader documentation](https://tanstack.com/router/latest/docs/framework/react/guide/data-loading#loader-parameters). |
| 184 | + |
| 185 | +# Demo files |
| 186 | + |
| 187 | +Files prefixed with `demo` can be safely deleted. They are there to provide a starting point for you to play around with the features you've installed. |
| 188 | + |
