`<button>` + `<turbo-stream>`

Harness the power of Turbo Streams to declare click event handlers as a series of HTML mutations.

Combine built-in <button> elements with <turbo-stream> elements to declaratively drive client-side interactions with server-generated HTML.

<button type="button" id="call-to-action"
        data-controller="turbo-stream-button"
        data-action="click->turbo-stream-button#evaluate">
  <span>Click me to insert the template's contents after this button!</span>

  <template data-turbo-stream-button-target="turboStreams">
    <turbo-stream action="after" target="call-to-action">
      <template><p>You clicked the button!</p></template>
    </turbo-stream>
  </template>
</button>

Try it out.

Usage

In your JavaScript code, import and register the turbo-stream-button controller with your Stimulus application:

import "@hotwired/turbo"
import { Application } from "stimulus"
import { TurboStreamButtonController } from "@seanpdoyle/turbo_stream_button"

const application = Application.start()
application.register("turbo-stream-button", TurboStreamButtonController)

In your Rails templates, call the turbo_stream_button_tag helper or render the turbo_stream_button view partial to create the <button> element. The view partial renders:

the block content as the <button> element's content
other keyword arguments as the <button> element's attributes
any content captured by any call to the #turbo_streams method invoked on the block's single argument

When the button is clicked, the turbo-stream-button Stimulus controller invokes the evaluate Action to insert the contents of the <template> element, activating any <turbo-stream> elements nested inside.

Introductory: Hello, world

<%= turbo_stream_button_tag id: "the-button" do |button| %>
  <span>Click me to say "hello"</span>

  <% button.turbo_streams do %>
    <%= turbo_stream.after "the-button", "Hello, world!" %>
  <% end %>
<% end %>

<%# =>  <button type="button" id="the-button"
                data-controller="turbo-stream-button"
                data-action="click->turbo-stream-button#evaluate">
          <span>Click me to say "hello"</span>

          <template data-turbo-stream-target="turboStreams">
            <turbo-stream action="after" target="the-button">
              <template>Hello, world!</template>
            </turbo-stream>
          </template>
        </button> %>

Helpers

There are two helpers declared by the engine:

`turbo_stream_button_tag`

The turbo_stream_button_tag helper renders a <button> element ready to evaluate a collection of <turbo-stream> elements:

<%= turbo_stream_button_tag do |button| %>
  Click to append "Hello!"

  <% button.turbo_streams do %>
    <%= turbo_stream.append_all "body" do %>
      Hello!
    <% end %>
  <% end %>
<% end %>

`turbo_stream_button`

The turbo_stream_button helper returns an attributes-aware HTML tag builder. Render a <button> element with the appropriate [data-controller] and [data-action] attributes by calling #tag:

<%= turbo_stream_button.tag do %>
  Click to append "Hello!"
<% end %>

The return a Hash of attributes containing the appropriate [data-controller] and [data-action] attributes, call #merge, #to_h or splat them into keyword arguments (with **):

<%= form_with model: Post.new do |form| %>
  <%= form.button **turbo_stream_button, type: :submit do %>
    Click to append "Hello!"

    <%= tag.template turbo_stream_button.template.merge(data: { a_controller_target: "template" }) do %>
      <%= turbo_stream.append_all "body" do %>
        Hello!
      <% end %>
    <% end %>
  <% end %>
<% end %>

To render the <template> element nested within the <button>, call #template_tag:

<%= turbo_stream_button.tag do %>
  Click to append "Hello!"

  <% turbo_stream_button.template_tag do %>
    <%= turbo_stream.append_all "body" do %>
      Hello!
    <% end %>
  <% end %>
<% end %>

The return a Hash of attributes containing the appropriate [data-turbo-stream-button-target] attribute, call #merge, #to_h, or splat them into keyword arguments (with **):

<%= turbo_stream_button.tag do %>
  Click to append "Hello!"

  <%= tag.template turbo_stream_button.template.merge(data: { a_controller_target: "template" }) do %>
    <%= turbo_stream.append_all "body" do %>
      Hello!
    <% end %>
  <% end %>
<% end %>

Exploring examples

To poke around with some working examples, start the dummy application locally:

cd test/dummy
bundle exec rails server --port 3000

Then, visit http://localhost:3000/examples.

You can also fork the @seanpdoyle/turbo_stream_button sandbox project on replit.com.

Installation

Add the turbo_stream_button dependency to your application's Gemfile:

gem "turbo_stream_button", github: "seanpdoyle/turbo_stream_button", branch: "main"

And then execute:

$ bundle

Installation through importmap-rails

Once the gem is installed, add the client-side dependency mapping to your project's config/importmap.rb declaration:

# config/importmap.rb

pin "stimulus", to: "stimulus.min.js", preload: true
pin "@seanpdoyle/turbo_stream_button", to: "turbo_stream_button.js"

Installation through `npm` or `yarn`

Once the gem is installed, add the client-side dependency to your project via npm or Yarn:

yarn add https://github.com/seanpdoyle/turbo_stream_button.git
