[ghost]

Hello,

Im trying to follow this tutorial : http://facebook.github.io/react/docs/tutorial.html But when I run it , I see this error message :

transforming /home/action/workspace/hapi_ecommerce/templates/about_us.jsx to JSX: Error: Parse Error: Line 14: Unexpected token :: Error transforming /home/action/workspace/hapi_ecommerce/templates/about_us.jsx to JSX: Error: Parse Error: Line 14: Unexpecte
d token :

You're using the engine incorrectly. Whatever template reply.view is called on must export a React class.

https://github.com/roelof1967/hapi_ecommerce/blob/master/templates/about_us.jsx is html.

See: https://github.com/landau/hapi-react/blob/master/fixtures/hi.jsx

changed it as you said but still the same error.

Hard to say what the problem is without seeing code. I've used this in production code used in the same fashion as your hapi server

I will give you the code again. The code can be found here : https://github.com/roelof1967/hapi_ecommerce

Hmm. I don't see any view code at all now.
