Demo01: Render JSX

demo / source

The template syntax in React is called JSX. JSX allows you to use HTML tags in JavaScript code. ReactDOM.render() is the method which translates JSX into HTML and renders it into the specified DOM node.

ReactDOM.render(
  <h1>Hello, world!</h1>,
  document.getElementById('example')
);

To actually perform the transformation in the browser, you must use <script type="text/babel"> to indicate JSX code, and include babel.min.js, which is a browser version of Babel and can be found in the babel-core@6 npm release.

Before v0.14, React used JSTransform.js to translate <script type="text/jsx">, but this is now deprecated (more info).

Demo02: Use JavaScript in JSX

demo / source

You can also use JavaScript within JSX. Angle brackets (<) symbolize the beginning of HTML syntax, while curly brackets ({) represent the beginning of JavaScript syntax.

var names = ['Alice', 'Emily', 'Kate'];

ReactDOM.render(
  <div>
  {
    names.map(function (name) {
      return <div>Hello, {name}!</div>
    })
  }
  </div>,
  document.getElementById('example')
);

Demo03: Use array in JSX

demo / source

If a JavaScript variable is an array, JSX will implicitly concat all members of the array.

var arr = [
  <h1>Hello world!</h1>,
  <h2>React is awesome</h2>,
];
ReactDOM.render(
  <div>{arr}</div>,
  document.getElementById('example')
);

Demo04: Define a component

demo / source

class ComponentName extends React.Component creates a component class, which implements a render method to return a component instance of the class.

Before v16.0, React used React.createClass() to create a component class, but this is now deprecated (more info).

class HelloMessage extends React.Component {
  render() {
    return <h1>Hello {this.props.name}</h1>;
  }
}

ReactDOM.render(
  <HelloMessage name="John" />,
  document.getElementById('example')
);

You can use this.props.[attribute] to access the attributes of a component. Example: this.props.name of <HelloMessage name="John" /> is John.

Please remember the first letter of the component's name must be capitalized, otherwise, React will throw an error. For instance, HelloMessage as a component's name is OK, but helloMessage is not allowed. And a React component should only have one top child node.

// wrong
class HelloMessage extends React.Component {
  render() {
    return <h1>
      Hello {this.props.name}
    </h1><p>
      some text
    </p>;
  }
}

// correct
class HelloMessage extends React.Component {
  render() {
    return <div>
      <h1>Hello {this.props.name}</h1>
      <p>some text</p>
    </div>;
  }
}

Demo05: this.props.children

demo / source

React uses this.props.children to access a component's children nodes.

class NotesList extends React.Component {
  render() {
    return (
      <ol>
      {
        React.Children.map(this.props.children, function (child) {
          return <li>{child}</li>;
        })
      }
      </ol>
    );
  }
}

ReactDOM.render(
  <NotesList>
    <span>hello</span>
    <span>world</span>
  </NotesList>,
  document.getElementById('example')
);

Please be mindful that the value of this.props.children has three possibilities. If the component has no child node, the value is undefined; If it has a single child node, the value will be an object; If it has multiple children nodes, the result is an array. Keep this in mind as you code.

React gave us a utility React.Children for dealing with the opaque data structure of this.props.children. You can use React.Children.map to iterate this.props.children without worrying if its data type is undefined or object. Check official document for more methods React.Children offers.

Demo06: PropTypes

demo / source

Components in React have many specific attributes which are called props and can be of any type.

Sometimes you need a way to validate these props. You don't want users have the freedom to input anything into your components.

React has a solution for this and it's called PropTypes.

class MyTitle extends React.Component {
  static propTypes = {
    title: PropTypes.string.isRequired,
  }
  render() {
    return <h1> {this.props.title} </h1>;
  }
}

The above component MyTitle has a prop of title. PropTypes tells React that the title is required and its value should be a string.

Now we give Title a number value.

var data = 123;

ReactDOM.render(
  <MyTitle title={data} />,
  document.getElementById('example')
);

Here, the prop doesn't pass the validation, and the console will show you an error message:

Warning: Failed propType: Invalid prop `title` of type `number` supplied to `MyTitle`, expected `string`.

Visit official doc for more PropTypes options.

P.S. If you want to give the props a default value, use defaultProps.

class MyTitle extends React.Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props)
  }
  static defaultProps = {
    title: 'Hello World',
  }
  render() {
    return <h1> {this.props.title} </h1>;
  }
}

ReactDOM.render(
  <MyTitle />,
  document.getElementById('example')
);

React.PropTypes has moved into a different package since React v15.5. (more info).

Demo07: Finding a DOM node

demo / source

Sometimes you need to reference a DOM node in a component. React gives you the ref attribute to attach a DOM node to instance created by React.createRef().

class MyComponent extends React.Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);
    this.myTextInput = React.createRef();
    this.handleClick = this.handleClick.bind(this)
  }
  handleClick() {
    this.myTextInput.current.focus();
  }
  render() {
    return (
      <div>
        <input type="text" ref={this.myTextInput} />
        <input type="button" value="Focus the text input" onClick={this.handleClick} />
      </div>
    );
  }
}

ReactDOM.render(
  <MyComponent />,
  document.getElementById('example')
);

Please be mindful that you could do that only after this component has been mounted into the DOM, otherwise you get null.

Demo08: this.state

demo / source

React thinks of component as state machines, and uses this.state to hold component's state, this.setState() to update this.state and re-render the component.

class LikeButton extends React.Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props)
    this.state = {
    	liked: false
    }
    this.handleClick = this.handleClick.bind(this)
  }
  handleClick(event) {
    this.setState({ liked: !this.state.liked });
  }
  render() {
    var text = this.state.liked ? 'like' : 'haven\'t liked';
    return (
      <p onClick={this.handleClick}>
        You {text} this. Click to toggle.
      </p>
    );
  }
}

ReactDOM.render(
  <LikeButton />,
  document.getElementById('example')
);

You could use component attributes to register event handlers, just like onClick, onKeyDown, onCopy, etc. Official Document has all supported events.

Demo09: Form

demo / source

According to React's design philosophy, this.state describes the state of component and is mutated via user interactions, and this.props describes the properties of component and is stable and immutable.

Since that, the value attribute of Form components, such as <input>, <textarea>, and <option>, is unaffected by any user input. If you wanted to access or update the value in response to user input, you could use the onChange event.

class Input extends React.Component {
constructor(props) {
  super(props)
  this.state = {value: 'Hello!'}
  this.handleChange = this.handleChange.bind(this)
}
handleChange(event) {
  this.setState({value: event.target.value});
}
render() {
  var value = this.state.value;
  return (
    <div>
      <input type="text" value={value} onChange={this.handleChange} />
      <p>{value}</p>
    </div>
  );
}
}

ReactDOM.render(<Input/>, document.getElementById('example'));

More information on official document.

Demo10: Component Lifecycle

demo / source

Components have three main parts of their lifecycle: Mounting(being inserted into the DOM), Updating(being re-rendered) and Unmounting(being removed from the DOM). React provides hooks into these lifecycle part. will methods are called right before something happens, and did methods which are called right after something happens.

class Hello extends React.Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props)
    this.state = {opacity: 1.0};
  }

  componentDidMount() {
    this.timer = setInterval(function () {
      var opacity = this.state.opacity;
      opacity -= .05;
      if (opacity < 0.1) {
        opacity = 1.0;
      }
      this.setState({
        opacity: opacity
      });
    }.bind(this), 100);
  }

  render() {
    return (
      <div style={{opacity: this.state.opacity}}>
        Hello {this.props.name}
      </div>
    );
  }
}

ReactDOM.render(
  <Hello name="world"/>,
  document.getElementById('example')
);

The following is a whole list of lifecycle methods.

  • componentWillMount(): Fired once, before initial rendering occurs. Good place to wire-up message listeners. this.setState doesn't work here.
  • componentDidMount(): Fired once, after initial rendering occurs. Can use this.getDOMNode().
  • componentWillUpdate(object nextProps, object nextState): Fired after the component's updates are made to the DOM. Can use this.getDOMNode() for updates.
  • componentDidUpdate(object prevProps, object prevState): Invoked immediately after the component's updates are flushed to the DOM. This method is not called for the initial render. Use this as an opportunity to operate on the DOM when the component has been updated.
  • componentWillUnmount(): Fired immediately before a component is unmounted from the DOM. Good place to remove message listeners or general clean up.
  • componentWillReceiveProps(object nextProps): Fired when a component is receiving new props. You might want to this.setState depending on the props.
  • shouldComponentUpdate(object nextProps, object nextState): Fired before rendering when new props or state are received. return false if you know an update isn't needed.

Demo11: Ajax

demo / source

How to get the data of a component from a server or an API provider? The answer is using Ajax to fetch data in the event handler of componentDidMount. When the server response arrives, store the data with this.setState() to trigger a re-render of your UI.

class UserGist extends React.Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props)
    this.state = {
      username: '',
      lastGistUrl: ''
    };
  }

  componentDidMount() {
    $.get(this.props.source, function(result) {
      var lastGist = result[0];
      this.setState({
        username: lastGist.owner.login,
        lastGistUrl: lastGist.html_url
      });
    }.bind(this));
  }

  render() {
    return (
      <div>
        {this.state.username}'s last gist is
        <a href={this.state.lastGistUrl}>here</a>.
      </div>
    );
  }
}

ReactDOM.render(
  <UserGist source="https://api.github.com/users/octocat/gists" />,
  document.getElementById('example')
);

Demo12: Display value from a Promise

demo / source

This demo is inspired by Nat Pryce's article "Higher Order React Components".

If a React component's data is received asynchronously, we can also use a Promise object as the component's property, as follows.

ReactDOM.render(
  <RepoList promise={$.getJSON('https://api.github.com/search/repositories?q=javascript&sort=stars')} />,
  document.getElementById('example')
);

The above code takes data from Github's API, and the RepoList component gets a Promise object as its property.

Now, while the promise is pending, the component displays a loading indicator. When the promise is resolved successfully, the component displays a list of repository information. If the promise is rejected, the component displays an error message.

class RepoList extends React.Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props)
    this.state = {
      loading: true,
      error: null,
      data: null
    };
  }

  componentDidMount() {
    this.props.promise.then(
      value => this.setState({loading: false, data: value}),
      error => this.setState({loading: false, error: error}));
  }

  render() {
    if (this.state.loading) {
      return <span>Loading...</span>;
    }
    else if (this.state.error !== null) {
      return <span>Error: {this.state.error.message}</span>;
    }
    else {
      var repos = this.state.data.items;
      var repoList = repos.map(function (repo, index) {
        return (
          <li key={index}><a href={repo.html_url}>{repo.name}</a> ({repo.stargazers_count} stars) <br/> {repo.description}</li>
        );
      });
      return (
        <main>
          <h1>Most Popular JavaScript Projects in Github</h1>
          <ol>{repoList}</ol>
        </main>
      );
    }
  }
}

Demo13: Server-side rendering

source

This demo is copied from github.com/mhart/react-server-example, but I rewrote it with JSX syntax.

# install the dependencies in demo13 directory
$ npm install

# translate all jsx file in src subdirectory to js file
$ npm run build

# launch http server
$ node server.js

Extras

Precompiling JSX

All above demos don't use JSX compilation for clarity. In production environment, ensure to precompile JSX files before putting them online.

First, install the command-line tools Babel.

$ npm install -g babel

Then precompile your JSX files(.jsx) into JavaScript(.js). Compiling the entire src directory and output it to the build directory, you may use the option --out-dir or -d.

$ babel src --out-dir build

Put the compiled JS files into HTML.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Hello React!</title>
    <script src="build/react.js"></script>
    <script src="build/react-dom.js"></script>
    <!-- No need for Browser.js! -->
  </head>
  <body>
    <div id="example"></div>
    <script src="build/helloworld.js"></script>
  </body>
</html>

react-demos's Issues

demo 11 里面的 this.isMounted 的作用是什么?

阮老师你好。我想请教下这一段里面的this.isMounted的作用。

componentDidMount: function() {
$.get(this.props.source, function(result) {
var lastGist = result[0];
if (this.isMounted()) {
this.setState({
username: lastGist.owner.login,
lastGistUrl: lastGist.html_url
});
}
}.bind(this));
},

看README的描述

did methods which are called right after something happens.

componentDidMount这个钩子调用的时候 this.isMounted应该总是为true吧。那么这个判断是不是多余的。

demo06 输出正确呢

输出是123呢不是那个报错的Warning: Failed propType: Invalid prop title of type number supplied to MyTitle, expected string

求教

how to add css file to the component

I tried to import the corresponding css file to the LogIn component like this:

import '../css/login.css';
import React from 'react';
const LogIn = React.createClass(.......)

But encountered with this error:

C:\Users\username\Desktop\APPStore>node server.js
module.js:471
    throw err;
    ^
Error: Cannot find module '../css/login.css'

    at Function.Module._load (module.js:438:3)

How can I solve it? Thanks a lot!

And my other question is how can I reference to another component in the button onClick() event? The reason Why I am trying to do this is because I want to direct to another page when click the button.

demo11、12ajax请求问题

请问在Demo11、12,使用jquery发起的ajax请求,是json请求不是jsonp请求,为什么同源策略不起作用,浏览器仍正常发送

Wrong class name?

I read your article.
It's very cool.

But maybe something is incorrect in the Demo04: Define a component

Maybe you want to give an example to show that the first lower case will generate an error.
But in your article, two examples are both start with the BIG H.

I feel that isn't your original proposal

React Demo's with Babel.js

Hi,

Curious if you are accepting PR's for updated demo's using babel.js? or if you plan to update repo using babel.js

执行第三步报错

在第三步报错了,
demo13/src/server.js:19
<body>

SyntaxError: Unexpected token <

$npm is not recognized as an internal or external command

After I git clone the ssh from github page and successfully installed the package, and I can open the file folder in Atom, I can not use the $npm install -g babel. I'm using windows 10 system.

The error message goes like this:

User\Document\react-demos $npm install -g babel
'$npm' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

New to JavaScript but rush to a final. Thanks in advance for your reply!

Please correct the name "HelloMessage" on wrong case

//wrong

var HelloMessage = React.createClass({ // should be helloMessage
  render: function() {
    return <h1>
      Hello {this.props.name}
    </h1><p>
      some text
    </p>;
  }
});

// correct

var HelloMessage = React.createClass({
  render: function() {
    return <div>
      <h1>Hello {this.props.name}</h1>
      <p>some text</p>
    </div>;
  }
})

Create CI Build the deploys to github pages

It would be good to have a build setup for this project, where code is linted and deployed to the github pages.

I work on this open-source build tool called earthly and I could do the work to set this up with GitHub Actions and earthly. Would that be useful?
