Add a template for creating components#

JetBrains IDEs#

  1. Navigate to File | Settings | Editor | Live Templates.
  2. Select Rust and click on the + icon to add a new Live Template.
  3. Give it a name and description of your preference.
  4. Paste the following snippet(s) into the Template Text section.
  5. Change the applicability on the lower right, select Rust > Item > Module

For function components, use the following template.

  • (Optional) Click on Edit Variable and give tag a reasonable default value like "div", with double quotes.
#[derive(PartialEq, Properties)]
pub struct $Name$Props {
}

#[component]
pub fn $Name$(props: &$Name$Props) -> Html {
    html! {
        <$tag$>$END$</$tag$>
    }
}

For struct components, you can use the following more complicated template.

struct $NAME$;

enum $NAME$Msg {
}

impl Component for $NAME$ {
    type Message = $NAME$Msg;
    type Properties = ();

    fn create(ctx: &Context<Self>) -> Self {
        Self
    }

    fn view(&self, ctx: &Context<Self>) -> Html {
        html! {
            $HTML$
        }
    }
}

VS Code#

  1. Navigate to File > Preferences > User Snippets.
  2. Select Rust as the language.
  3. Add the following snippet in the snippet JSON file:
{
    "New Yew function component": {
        "prefix": "yewfc",
        "body": [
            "#[derive(PartialEq, Properties)]",
            "pub struct ${1:ComponentName}Props {}",
            "",

            "    let ${1}Props {} = props;",
            "    html! {",
            "        <${2:div}>$0</${2}>",
            "    }",
            "}"
        ],

            "}",
            "",
            "impl Component for ${1} {",
            "    type Message = ${1}Msg;",
            "    type Properties = ();",
            "",

            "",
            "    fn view(&self, ctx: &Context<Self>) -> Html {",
            "        html! {",
            "            $0",
            "        }",
            "    }",
            "}"
        ],

Support for the html! macro#

JetBrains IDEs#

Contribution Welcome!

VS Code#

The Rust-Yew extension#

This is a work in progress, and community maintained project! Please see details and direct related bug reports / issues / questions over to the extension's repository

The Rust-Yew extension is available on VSC Marketplace, providing syntax highlighting, renames, hover, and more.

Emmet support should work out of the box; if not, please fall back to editing the settings.json file:

"emmet.includeLanguages": {
    "rust": "html",
}

Neovim#

Lazyvim#

The below configuration works with LazyVim and the lazy.vim plugin. Create a file in lua/plugins/nvim-lspconfig.lua (or update your lspconfig) with:

return {
  {
    "neovim/nvim-lspconfig",
    init_options = {
      userLanguages = {
        eelixir = "html-eex",
        eruby = "erb",
        rust = "html",
      },
    },
  },
}
