OpenComponents for Ruby

This gem is still under heavy development and the API is likely to change at any time.

Add the gem to your Gemfile and run bundle install:

gem 'opencomponents', '~> 0.4.0'

By default, the gem will attempt to use a component registry located at http://localhost:3030. If you want to use a different registry, you can configure OpenComponents to use it with:

OpenComponents.configure { |config| config.registry = 'http://some.other.host' }

To request an OpenComponent with its rendered HTML, you can create and load a new RenderedComponent object.

component = OpenComponents::RenderedComponent.new('my-awesome-component')
component.load

Optionally, you can also specify parameters, the component version, and additional HTTP headers to request:

component = OpenComponents::RenderedComponent.new(
  'my-awesome-component',
  params: {name: 'Kate'},
  version: '1.0.2',
  headers: {accept_language: 'emoji'}
)

If you'd like to perform the component rendering yourself, you can request an unrendered component from a registry using a UnrenderedComponent object.

component = OpenComponents::UnrenderedComponent.new('my-awesome-component')
component.load

You can use the same optional params, version, and headers arguments as RenderedComponents.

Note: UnrenderedComponents will only fetch component data for you - they do not provide an interface for rendering them. At the moment, it's up to you to determine the best way to render the template.

Individual integrations for rendering components in Rails and Sinatra are available.

• opencomponents-rails
• sinatra-opencomponents
