How to integrate ButterCMS into your mobile application
Integrating the Butter blog engine into your mobile app is dead simple. Here's a mini tutorial to get a feel for setting up your blog home and blog post pages.
To display posts we create a few routes (using react-router) and components that fetch blog posts from the Butter API. See ourAPI referencefor additional options such as filtering by category or author. The response also includes some metadata we'll use for pagination.
routes.jsx:
import React from 'react'; import { Router, IndexRoute, Route } from 'react-router';
import App from './App'; import BlogHome from './BlogHome'; import BlogPost from './BlogPost';
Our BlogPost.js component for displaying a full post includes information such as author and publish date. See a full list of available post properties in our API reference. We use react-helmet to set HTML title and meta tags for SEO.
import React, { Component } from 'react'; import Butter from 'buttercms' import { Helmet } from "react-helmet";
const butter = Butter('your_api_token');
class BlogPost extends Component {
constructor(props) { super(props);
this.state = { loaded: false }; }
componentWillMount() { let slug = this.props.params.slug;
