Views

Views is a way to display data to the user. In lito, we utilize jsx to ease the process of creating views. You can create a view by creating a file with .tsx extension.

Basic View

const Home = () => {
  return <div>Hello World</div>;
};

Using Props

interface Props {
  name: string;
}

const Home = (props: Props) => {
  return <div>Hello {props.name}</div>;
};

Passing Props in Controller

You can pass props to the view by using the view function. The view function accepts two arguments, the first one is the view component and the second one is the props.

INFO

Typescript would infer the type of the props based on the view component.

import { Controller } from "litojs";
import { view } from "litojs/utils";

export class MyController extends Controller {
  async index() {
    return view(Home, { name: "John Doe" });
  }
}

Redirecting

You can redirect to another route by using the redirect function. The redirect function accepts one argument, the route you want to redirect to.

import { Controller } from "litojs";
import { redirect } from "litojs/utils";

export class MyController extends Controller {
  async index() {
    return redirect("/home");
  }
}
