I am trying to use React to render the UI in Play framework. I have my react Components in multiple files and am trying to import the Components from one file to another but I always get the following error on compilation " Illegal Import Declaration" and Illegal export Declaration
import {Component2} from './Component2'
class Component1 extends React.Component{
render(){
<div><h1>Hello</h1>
<Component2 />
</div>
}
}
ReactDOM.render(<Component1 />, document.getElementById('headerLine'))
export class Component2 extends React.Component{
render(){
<div><h1>World</h1></div>
}
}
The play framework version being used is 2.4.2 .
React version 0.14.3. What can be the possible issue here? Do I need to use bundlers like webpack or browserify? If Yes how do I do it with play framework?
Yes, you will need to bundle your javascript while browsers don't add support for ES6 modules
To do that in the play framework you have two options, one is using sbt-web which is the standard way to deal with assets in play framework (which I quite don't like) or you can simple use webpack as you would normally do and add a hook in your build to bundle your app. Here is the documentation on how to call another process before starting the server.
