Level: beginner • Mithril.js Version: latest

component key m.route oninit

Re-init a component every time.

Live Example #

JavaScript #

const closure = () => {
  console.log('init closure')

  return {
    view: () => [
      m('button', {onclick: () => m.route.set('/plop/123')}, 'click'),
      m('div', 'test')
    ]
  }
}

const pojo = {
  oninit: () => console.log('init pojo'),
  view: () => [
    m('button', {onclick: () => m.route.set('/plop/123')}, 'click'),
    m('div', 'test')
  ]
}

m.route(document.body, '/plop/123', {
  '/plop/:id': {
    onmatch: () => ({view: v => m(closure, v.attrs)})
    // onmatch: () => ({...pojo})
  }
})

The snippet requires the latest version of Mithril.js framework. It is ideal for beginners showing some basic recipes.

In this example we can see an example of Mithril.js' m.route API method, besides it core m() hyperscript function. It is also showing the oninit hook, which is one of several Mithril.js' lifecycle methods.
