WIP Inertia server-side adapter for SilverStripe

This module is a still Work In progress, and help/pr's would be much appreciated!

Inertia allows you to create fully client-side rendered, single-page apps, without much of the complexity that comes with modern SPAs. It does this by leveraging existing server-side frameworks.

Installation

Install the module trough composer:

composer require bramdeleeuw/silverstripe-inertia

Add $Inertia to your Page.ss layout.

$Inertia($pageJson)

This wil render the following snippet:

<div id="app" data-page="{the page data}"></div>

In your controller you can now add the following method to populate your vue/react/etc. app.

<?php

use SilverStripe\CMS\Controllers\ContentController;
use Inertia\Inertia;

class PageController extends ContentController
{
    public function index()
    {
        return Inertia::render('Page', [
            'title' => $this->Title,
            'content' => $this->Content
        ]);
    }
}

On initial request this will populate the data-page with the passed props. Following request made by Inertia will receive the passed props as json.
