melange-demo's Introduction

melange-opam-template

A simple project template using Melange with opam.

If you are looking for a template with esy, check melange-esy-template.

Quick Start

make init

# In separate terminals:
make watch
make serve

When running make init, you may encounter an error like this:

[ERROR] Could not determine which packages to install for this switch:
  * Missing dependency:
    - melange >= 1.0.0
    no matching version

To address this, first run opam update, then rerun make init.

React

React support is provided by reason-react. The entry point of the sample React app is src/ReactApp.re.

Commands

You can see all available commands by running make help or just make. Here are a few of the most useful ones:

  • make init: set up opam local switch and download OCaml, Melange and JavaScript dependencies
  • make install: install OCaml, Melange and JavaScript dependencies
  • make watch: watch for the filesystem and have Melange rebuild on every change
  • make serve: serve the application with a local HTTP server

JavaScript output

Since Melange just compiles source files into JavaScript files, it can be used for projects on any JavaScript platform - not just the browser.

The template includes two melange.emit stanza for two separate apps. This stanza tells Dune to generate JavaScript files using Melange, and specifies in which folder the JavaScript files should be placed, by leveraging the target field:

  • The React app JavaScript files will be placed in _build/default/src/output/*.
  • The NodeJS app JavaScript files will be placed in _build/default/src/node/*.

So for example, src/Hello.ml (using OCaml syntax) can be run with node:

node _build/default/src/node/src/Hello.js

Similarly, _build/default/src/output/src/ReactApp.js can be passed as entry to a bundler like Webpack:

webpack --mode production --entry ./_build/default/src/output/src/ReactApp.js
