<p>Part of the <strong>WRNexusJS</strong> framework — an SSR-first, Bun-native full-stack web framework.</p>
<h3 id="overview">Overview</h3>
<p><code>@wrnexus/csr</code> holds the three client runtimes that WRNexusJS serves to the browser. Components are authored as <code>.wrn</code> files and rendered on the <strong>server</strong>; this package provides the single, generic runtime that <strong>hydrates</strong> that HTML in the browser — there are no per-component browser bundles. Each runtime is exported as a plain-JS string (no build step, no imports) intended to be served verbatim from a well-known URL:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>reactive</strong> at <code>/__wrnexus/reactive.js</code> — reactive directives (<code>data-scope</code>, <code>data-text</code>, <code>data-for</code>, …)</li>
<li><strong>nav</strong> at <code>/__wrnexus/nav.js</code> — SPA-style client navigation with graceful fallback</li>
<li><strong>realtime</strong> at <code>/__wrnexus/realtime.js</code> — WebSocket &quot;rooms&quot;, declarative or programmatic</li>
</ul>
<p>The package itself runs on the server (it just returns strings); the strings it returns run in the browser. A dev/prod server (see <code>@wrnexus/core</code>) is responsible for actually serving them.</p>
<h3 id="installation">Installation</h3>
<pre data-language="bash"><code>bun add @wrnexus/csr</code></pre>
<blockquote>Private package — the machine must be authenticated to the <code>wrnexus</code> npm org</blockquote>
<blockquote>(a read token in <code>~/.npmrc</code>). Requires <strong>Bun</strong> (Node is not supported).</blockquote>
<h3 id="api">API</h3>
<p>All exports come from the package root (<code>@wrnexus/csr</code>). The runtime source is delivered as strings, so the &quot;API&quot; on the server side is small; the real surface is the browser directives/globals each string installs.</p>
<h4 id="runtime-strings">Runtime strings</h4>
<div class="table-wrap"><table>
<thead><tr><th>Export</th><th>Type</th><th>Served at</th><th>Contents</th></tr></thead>
<tbody><tr><td><code>REACTIVE_RUNTIME</code></td><td><code>string</code></td><td><code>/__wrnexus/reactive.js</code></td><td>Reactive directive runtime</td></tr><tr><td><code>NAV_RUNTIME</code></td><td><code>string</code></td><td><code>/__wrnexus/nav.js</code></td><td>Client-side navigation runtime</td></tr><tr><td><code>REALTIME_RUNTIME</code></td><td><code>string</code></td><td><code>/__wrnexus/realtime.js</code></td><td>Realtime rooms runtime</td></tr></tbody></table></div>
<h4 id="accessor-functions">Accessor functions</h4>
<p>Convenience getters that return the same strings.</p>
<pre data-language="ts"><code>getReactiveRuntime(): string // → REACTIVE_RUNTIME
getNavRuntime(): string // → NAV_RUNTIME
getRealtimeRuntime(): string // → REALTIME_RUNTIME</code></pre>
<h4 id="browser-reactive-directives">Browser: reactive directives</h4>
<p>Applied to any subtree containing <code>data-scope</code>. Expressions are parsed by a tiny eval-free evaluator, so a strict CSP with no <code>unsafe-eval</code> works.</p>
<div class="table-wrap"><table>
<thead><tr><th>Directive</th><th>Purpose</th></tr></thead>
<tbody><tr><td><code>data-scope=&quot;count: 0, name: 'x'&quot;</code></td><td>Declare reactive state on a subtree</td></tr><tr><td><code>data-on-&lt;event&gt;=&quot;count++&quot;</code></td><td>Run a statement in scope on a DOM event</td></tr><tr><td><code>data-text=&quot;expr&quot;</code></td><td>Bind an element's <code>textContent</code> to an expression</td></tr><tr><td><code>data-show=&quot;expr&quot;</code></td><td>Toggle visibility (<code>display</code>) on truthiness</td></tr><tr><td><code>data-for=&quot;item in list&quot;</code> (opt. <code>item, i in list</code>)</td><td>Per-item list rendering template</td></tr><tr><td><code>&#123;&#123;expr&#125;&#125;</code> or <code>&#123;expr&#125;</code></td><td>Interpolation inside text nodes and attribute values</td></tr><tr><td><code>data-wrnexus-csr=&quot;id&quot;</code></td><td>Target for a generated CSR fetch binding (fetches <code>/__wrnexus/csr?...</code>)</td></tr></tbody></table></div>
<p>Supported expression features: literals, identifiers, member access (<code>a.b</code>, <code>a[b]</code>), function/method calls, arrays, objects, arithmetic, comparison, equality, logical (<code>&amp;&amp; ||</code>), unary (<code>! - +</code>), and ternary. Statements support <code>++</code>/<code>--</code>, assignment operators (<code>= += -= *= /= %=</code>), and bare expression/method calls. Rendering is dependency-tracked: a signal change only re-runs the renderers that actually read it.</p>
<p>Browser globals installed: <code>window.__wrnexusHydrateScopes(root)</code> and <code>window.__wrnexusHydrateCsrFetches(root)</code> — both idempotent, so re-running after a DOM swap or HMR morph is safe. Both run automatically on <code>DOMContentLoaded</code>.</p>
<h4 id="browser-navigation">Browser: navigation</h4>
<p>Intercepts same-origin <code>&lt;a&gt;</code> clicks, fetches the target page, and swaps the <code>#app</code> container in place (via <code>importNode</code> — not <code>innerHTML</code> — so it works under a Trusted-Types CSP), updating history, title, and scroll, then re-hydrates. Cross-origin links, modified clicks, <code>download</code>/<code>data-no-nav</code>/<code>rel=&quot;external&quot;</code>/<code>target</code> links, non-HTML responses, or a missing <code>#app</code> fall back to a full browser navigation.</p>
<ul>
<li>Programmatic navigation: <code>window.__wrnexusNavigate(url)</code></li>
<li>Emits a <code>wrnexus:navigated</code> <code>CustomEvent</code> (<code>detail.url</code>) after each swap</li>
<li>Sends <code>x-wrnexus-nav: 1</code> on fetches so the server can return the page fragment</li>
<li>Appends any <code>/__wrnexus/*</code> runtime scripts the incoming page needs but the current document lacks</li>
</ul>
<h4 id="browser-realtime-rooms">Browser: realtime rooms</h4>
<p>Connects to <code>/realtime/&lt;name&gt;</code> over WebSocket (<code>ws</code>/<code>wss</code> chosen from <code>location.protocol</code>). Two usage modes.</p>
<p>Programmatic API via <code>window.wire</code>:</p>
<pre data-language="ts"><code>wire.room(name): Room // open (or reuse) a room connection
wire.bindRooms(root?) // (re)bind declarative [data-room] containers
interface Room &#123;
name: string;
send(obj: object | string): Room; // JSON-stringifies objects; queues until open
on(type: string, cb): Room; // filter by msg.type; &quot;*&quot; or a fn = all messages
on(cb): Room;
close(): Room;
&#125;</code></pre>
<p>Internal lifecycle messages are emitted to listeners as <code>&#123; type &#125;</code>: <code>__open</code>, <code>__close</code>, <code>__error</code>, and <code>__raw</code> (non-JSON frames, with <code>data</code>). Reconnect uses exponential backoff capped at 5s; queued sends flush on reconnect.</p>
<p>Declarative binding (zero JS) on a <code>data-room=&quot;&lt;name&gt;&quot;</code> container:</p>
<div class="table-wrap"><table>
<thead><tr><th>Attribute</th><th>On</th><th>Purpose</th></tr></thead>
<tbody><tr><td><code>data-room=&quot;&lt;name&gt;&quot;</code></td><td>container</td><td>Connect to room <code>&lt;name&gt;</code></td></tr><tr><td><code>data-room-user=&quot;&lt;id&gt;&quot;</code></td><td>container</td><td>Identify the connection (<code>?user=&lt;id&gt;</code>)</td></tr><tr><td><code>data-room-log</code></td><td>element</td><td>Where incoming messages are appended</td></tr><tr><td><code>&lt;template data-room-item=&quot;&lt;type&gt;&quot;&gt;</code></td><td>template</td><td>Row template for messages of that <code>type</code> (empty = fallback)</td></tr><tr><td><code>%field%</code></td><td>inside template</td><td>Placeholder filled from the message field (text/attr only, HTML-escaped)</td></tr><tr><td><code>data-room-status</code></td><td>element</td><td>Reflects connection state text (<code>connected</code>/<code>disconnected</code>/<code>error</code>)</td></tr><tr><td><code>data-room-status-class</code></td><td>status element</td><td>Base class; a state variant (<code>is-connected</code>, …) is appended</td></tr><tr><td><code>&lt;form data-room-send&gt;</code></td><td>form</td><td>Submits named fields as a JSON message</td></tr><tr><td><code>data-room-reset</code></td><td>form field</td><td>Clears that field after send</td></tr></tbody></table></div>
<p>Rebinds on <code>wrnexus:navigated</code> and closes rooms whose container has left the page.</p>
<h3 id="usage">Usage</h3>
<p>Server side — serve the runtime strings from your router (example with <code>Bun.serve</code>):</p>
<pre data-language="ts"><code>import &#123; getReactiveRuntime, getNavRuntime, getRealtimeRuntime &#125; from &quot;@wrnexus/csr&quot;;
const routes: Record&lt;string, string&gt; = &#123;
&quot;/__wrnexus/reactive.js&quot;: getReactiveRuntime(),
&quot;/__wrnexus/nav.js&quot;: getNavRuntime(),
&quot;/__wrnexus/realtime.js&quot;: getRealtimeRuntime(),
&#125;;
Bun.serve(&#123;
fetch(req) &#123;
const body = routes[new URL(req.url).pathname];
if (body) &#123;
return new Response(body, &#123;
headers: &#123; &quot;content-type&quot;: &quot;text/javascript; charset=utf-8&quot; &#125;,
&#125;);
&#125;
return new Response(&quot;Not found&quot;, &#123; status: 404 &#125;);
&#125;,
&#125;);</code></pre>
<p>Browser side — server-rendered HTML that the reactive runtime hydrates:</p>
<pre data-language="html"><code>&lt;div data-scope=&quot;count: 0&quot;&gt;
&lt;button data-on-click=&quot;count++&quot;&gt;+1&lt;/button&gt;
&lt;span data-text=&quot;count&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Total: &#123;&#123;count&#125;&#125;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;script src=&quot;/__wrnexus/reactive.js&quot;&gt;&lt;/script&gt;</code></pre>
<p>A realtime chat, fully declarative:</p>
<pre data-language="html"><code>&lt;div data-room=&quot;lobby&quot; data-room-user=&quot;ada&quot;&gt;
&lt;div data-room-status&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;ul data-room-log&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;template data-room-item=&quot;chat&quot;&gt;&lt;li&gt;%user%: %text%&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/template&gt;
&lt;form data-room-send&gt;
&lt;input name=&quot;text&quot; data-room-reset /&gt;
&lt;input type=&quot;hidden&quot; name=&quot;type&quot; value=&quot;chat&quot; /&gt;
&lt;button&gt;Send&lt;/button&gt;
&lt;/form&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;script src=&quot;/__wrnexus/realtime.js&quot;&gt;&lt;/script&gt;</code></pre>
<p>Or drive a room from code:</p>
<pre data-language="ts"><code>const room = wire.room(&quot;lobby&quot;);
room.on(&quot;chat&quot;, (msg) =&gt; console.log(msg.user, msg.text));
room.send(&#123; type: &quot;chat&quot;, user: &quot;ada&quot;, text: &quot;hi&quot; &#125;);</code></pre>
<h3 id="requirements-notes">Requirements / Notes</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Bun-only</strong> on the server (the package integrates with Bun-based WRNexusJS servers); the emitted strings are plain browser JS with no dependencies.</li>
<li>Browser runtimes are <strong>self-contained</strong> (no imports, no build step) and <strong>idempotent</strong>, so re-hydration after navigation or HMR is safe.</li>
<li>Designed for a <strong>strict CSP</strong>: the reactive expression evaluator avoids <code>eval</code>/<code>new Function</code> (no <code>unsafe-eval</code>), and DOM swaps use <code>importNode</code>/attribute writes rather than <code>innerHTML</code> (Trusted-Types friendly).</li>
<li>Peer packages: rendered <code>.wrn</code> components and the serving layer come from <code>@wrnexus/core</code> (the sole dependency); pages are rendered by the WRNexusJS dev/prod server.</li>

*
* Supported directives (this is exactly what the `.wrn` compiler emits):
* data-scope=&quot;count: 0, name: 'x'&quot; declare reactive state on a subtree
* data-on-&lt;event&gt;=&quot;count++&quot; run a statement in scope on an event

* connects, appends incoming messages to `[data-room-log]` using a
* `&lt;template data-room-item=&quot;&lt;type&gt;&quot;&gt;` (fields via `%field%`, HTML-escaped),
* reflects connection state on `[data-room-status]`, and sends a
* `&lt;form data-room-send&gt;`'s named fields as JSON on submit (fields marked
* `data-room-reset` clear after send). Optional `data-room-user` identifies
* the connection.
*
* 2. Programmatic: `const room = wire.room(&quot;chat&quot;); room.on(&quot;chat&quot;, fn);
* room.send(&#123; type: &quot;chat&quot;, text &#125;)`. Handles connect, JSON, reconnect.
