Server-side Inertia.js adapter for modern JavaScript runtimes

Inertia JavaScript Server Adapter

Integrate Inertia with any modern Javascript runtime and server.

Inertia is a framework-agnostic way to create single-page applications without much of the complexity of modern SPAs. It allows you to build modern single-page React, Vue, and Svelte applications using classic server-side routing and controllers.

Why Inertia Server?

• Framework agnostic - Works with any modern JavaScript server and runtime
• Fully typed - Communicate between server and client with full type safety
• Feature complete - Supports all Inertia.js v2 features besides precognition (yet)

Example

import { createInertia, prop } from 'inertia-server';

// Create Inertia instance
const { definePage, createHelper } = createInertia({
  version: '1.0.0',
  render: (page) => renderToString(<Root page={page} />),
});

// Define your page - pages/home.ts 
const homePage = definePage({
  component: 'Home',
  props: {
    title: prop<string>(),
    user: prop<User>().once(),
    stats: prop<Stats>().deferred(),
  },
});

// Your server.ts
import { homePage } from './pages/home';

app.get('/', ({ request }) => {
  // Inline example, you can use adapters and create
  // global helpers for your framework of choice
  const inertia = createHelper({ 
    request
  });

  return inertia.render(homePage({
    title: 'Welcome',
    user: getCurrentUser(),
    stats: () => fetchStats(),
  }));
});

// Your react page
import { PageProps } from 'inertia-server';
import type { homePage } from './pages/home';

export function Page({ title, user, stats }: PageProps<typeof homePage>) {
  return (
    <div>
      <h1>{title}</h1>
      <p>{user.name}</p>
      {/* No <Deffered> from @inertiajs/react needed, everything is typed! */}
      {stats ? <p>{stats}</p> : <p>Loading stats...</p>}
    </div>
  );
}
