Omi v5.0.23
Omio v1.3.7
- Tiny size
- Supports TypeScript
- Reactive data-binding
- Having official UI components - omiu
- Excellent compatibility(IE8+) with omio
- Real MVVM with mappingjs strong support
- Enhanced CSS, rpx unit support base on 750 screen width
- Compliance with browser trend and API design
- Merge Web Components and JSX into one framework
- Web Components can also be a data-driven view,
UI = fn(data). - JSX is the best development experience (code intelligent completion and tip) UI Expression with least grammatical noise and it's turing complete(template engine is not, es template string is but grammatical noise is too loud)
- Look at Facebook React vs Web Components，Omi combines their advantages and gives developers the freedom to choose the way they like
- Shadow DOM merges with Virtual DOM, Omi uses both virtual DOM and real Shadow DOM to make view updates more accurate and faster
- Scoped CSS's best solution is Shadow DOM, the community churning out frameworks and libraries for Scoped CSS (using JS or JSON writing styles such as Radium, jsxstyle, react-style; binding to webpack using generated unique
classNamefilename-classname-hash, such as CSS Modules, Vue), are hack technologies; and Shadow DOM Style is the perfect solution.

import { render, WeElement, define } from 'omi'
define('my-counter', class extends WeElement {
static observe = true
data = {
count: 1
}
css () {
return `span{
color: red;

<div>
<button onClick={this.sub}>-</button>
<span>{this.data.count}</span>
<button onClick={this.add}>+</button>
</div>
)
}
})
render(<my-counter />, 'body')You can also update the view manually then you can choose the best time to update.
import { render, WeElement, define } from 'omi'
define('my-counter', class extends WeElement {
count = 1
//You can also pass strings directly
css = `span{
color: red;

<span>{this.count}</span>
<button onClick={this.add}>+</button>
</div>
)
}
})
render(<my-counter />, 'body')$ npm i omi-cli -g # install cli
$ omi init my-app # init project, you can also exec 'omi init' in an empty folder
$ cd my-app # please ignore this command if you executed 'omi init' in an empty folder
$ npm start # develop
$ npm run build # release
npx omi-cli init my-appis also supported(npm v5.2.0+).

Define a custom element by extending WeElement base class:
import { define, WeElement } from 'omi'
define('hello-element', class extends WeElement {
onClick = evt => {
// trigger CustomEvent
this.fire('abc', { name: 'dntzhang', age: 12 })
evt.stopPropagation()
}
css = `
div {
color: red;
cursor: pointer;
}`
}
render(props) {
return (
<div onClick={this.onClick}>
Hello {props.msg} {props.propFromParent}
<div>Click Me!</div>
</div>
)
}
})Using hello-element:
import { define, render, WeElement } from 'omi'
import './hello-element'
define('my-app', class extends WeElement {
data = { abc: 'abc', passToChild: 123 }
// define CustomEvent Handler
onAbc = evt => {
// get evt data by evt.detail
this.data.abc = ' by ' + evt.detail.name
this.data.passToChild = 1234
this.update()
}
css = `
div{
color: green;
}`
}
render(props, data) {
return (
<div>
Hello {props.name} {data.abc}
<hello-element
onAbc={this.onAbc}
propFromParent={data.passToChild}
msg="WeElement"
/>
</div>
)
}
})
render(<my-app name="Omi v4.0" />, 'body')Tell Babel to transform JSX into Omi.h() call:
{
"presets": ["env", "omi"]
}The following two NPM packages need to be installed to support the above configuration:
"babel-preset-env": "^1.6.0",
"babel-preset-omi": "^0.1.1",If you use babel7, you can also use the following packages and configuration:
npm install --save-dev @babel/preset-env
npm install --save-dev @babel/preset-react{
"presets": [
"@babel/preset-env",
[
"@babel/preset-react",
{
"pragma": "Omi.h"
}
]
]
}If you don't want to write CSS in JS, you can use to-string-loader of webpack, For example, the following configuration:
{
test: /[\\|\/]_[\S]*\.css$/,
use: [
'to-string-loader',
'css-loader'
]
}If your CSS file starts with "_", CSS will use to-string-loader., such as:
import { tag, WeElement render } from 'omi'
define('my-app', class extends WeElement {
css = require('./_index.css')
...
...
...You can also forget the tedious configuration and use omi-cli directly, no need to configure anything.
Here is a relatively complete example of TodoApp:
import { define, render, WeElement } from 'omi'
define('todo-list', function(props) {
return (
<ul>
{props.items.map(item => (
<li key={item.id}>{item.text}</li>
))}
</ul>
)
})
define('todo-app', class extends WeElement {
static observe = true
data = { items: [], text: '' }
render() {
return (
<div>
<h3>TODO</h3>
<todo-list items={this.data.items} />
<form onSubmit={this.handleSubmit}>
<input
id="new-todo"
onChange={this.handleChange}
value={this.data.text}
/>
<button>Add #{this.data.items.length + 1}</button>
</form>
</div>
)
}
handleChange = e => {
this.data.text = e.target.value
}
handleSubmit = e => {
e.preventDefault()
if (!this.data.text.trim().length) {
return
}
this.data.items.push({
text: this.data.text,
id: Date.now()
})
this.data.text = ''
}
})
render(<todo-app />, 'body')Omi Store provides a way to pass data through the component tree without having to pass props down manually at every level, injected from the root component and shared across all subcomponents. It's very simple to use:
import { define, render, WeElement } from 'omi'
define('my-hello', class extends WeElement {
render() {
//use this.store in any method of any children components
return <div>{this.store.name}</div>
}
})
define('my-app', class extends WeElement {
handleClick = () => {
//use this.store in any method of any children components
this.store.reverse()
this.update()
}
render() {
return (
<div>
<my-hello />
<button onclick={this.handleClick}>reverse</button>
</div>
)
}
})
const store = {
name: 'abc',
reverse: function() {
this.name = this.name.split("").reverse().join("")
}
}
//Injection through a third parameter
render(<my-app />, document.body, store)Unlike global variables, when there are multiple root nodes, multiple stores can be injected, while there is only one global variable.
If you don't want to use store's data system, you can also use publish subscribe mode. For example, using mitt across component communication in Omi:
You can also use observe to create response views for element who no need store, such as:
import { define, WeElement } from "omi"
define("my-app", class extends WeElement {
static observe = true
install() {
this.data.name = "omi"
}
onClick = () => {
this.data.name = "Omi V4.0"
}
render(props, data) {
return (
<div onClick={this.onClick}>
<h1>Welcome to {data.name}</h1>
</div>
)
}
})| Lifecycle method | When it gets called |
|---|---|
install |
before the component gets mounted to the DOM |
installed |
after the component gets mounted to the DOM |
uninstall |
prior to removal from the DOM |
beforeUpdate |
before update |
updated |
after update |
beforeRender |
before render() |
receiveProps |
parent element re-render will trigger it |
Easy to debug via Omi DevTools Extension [Install from Chrome WebStore], using Omi DevTools you can simply debug and manage your UI without any configuration. Just install and debug.
Since Omi uses Web Components and Shadow-DOM, it doesn't need to have another elements panel such as React has. It just adds a panel to the Elements' sidebar and it's powerful as much as React DevTools.
For example, the below is about migration React button as weui Omi button:
Omio - Omi for old browsers(IE8+ and mobile browsers)
Omi 4.0+ works in the latest two versions of all major browsers: Safari 10+, IE 11+, and the evergreen Chrome, Firefox, and Edge.
