I wants to create a class which while load a react.js file into a div specified using the react i had not found any thing related to that on net.
Check this example:
Lets say you have 2 component App and Child, and wants to render child component on checking the checkbox, this is called conditional rendering.
app.js file, import file child.js in App component:
import Child from './child';
class App extends React.Component {
constructor() {
super();
this.showComments = this.showComments.bind(this);
this.state = {
showComponent: false,
};
}
showComments(e) {
this.setState({
showComponent: e.target.checked,
});
}
render() {
return (
<div className="add_checkbox">
<span>Enable Comments</span>
<input className="checkbox" type="checkbox" name="enable_comment" onClick={this.showComments} value="enable_comment"/>
{this.state.showComponent ? <Child/> : null}
</div>
)
}
}
child.js file:
export default class Child extends React.Component{
render(){
return(
<div>Hello</div>
);
}
}
ReactDOM.render(<App />, document.getElementById('container'));

import React from 'react'
export default () => {
function clickHandler() {
console.log('Button clicked')
}
return (
<div>
<button onClick={clickHandler}>Click</button>
</div>
)
}
In the above code we see that a function has been passed to the onClick.In the same way to the onClick I need to pass a diffrent component which is present in the same src. This component consists of a .js and a .css file.Could you please help me out with it. Thanks in advance
If you don't mind using classes instead of functions, your other component should look like this:
import React from 'react'
class ShowThisAfterClick extends React.Component {
return (
<div>
<p>This is what you want to show</p>
</div>
)
}
export default ShowThisAfterClick
And now you should update the component you've shown:
import React from 'react'
import ShowThisAfterClick from './where/you/put/the/ShowThisAfterClick.js'
class Main extends React.Component {
constructor(props){
super(props)
this.state = { isButtonClicked: false }
this.clickHandler = this.clickhandler.bind(this)
}
clickHandler() {
this.setState({ isButtonClicked: true })
}
render() {
const { isButtonClicked } = this.state
return (
<div>
<button onClick={ this.clickHandler }>Click</button>
{ isButtonClicked ? <ShowThisAfterClick /> : ''}
</div>
)
}
}
export default Main
If you want to keep using functions, then I would kindly suggest to read the manual, it is more than well written.
I'm trying to pass a click handler function to a child component but I cant figure out why its not working.
I tried making my click handler into a lambda function, binding it to the parent component, and making my onClick in the child component a lambda function but nothing seems to work.
Parent Component
import React from 'react';
import NavMenuButton from './navMenuButton.js';
export default class NavBar extends React.Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props);
this.state = {
navBarOpen: true
};
this.toggleNavbar = this.toggleNavbar.bind(this);
}
toggleNavbar() {
console.log('Toggled!');
this.setState({
navBarOpen: this.state.navBarOpen ? false : true
});
}
render() {
return (
<NavMenuButton
handleClick={this.toggleNavBar}
navBarOpen={this.state.navBarOpen}
/>
);
}
}
Child Component
import React from 'react';
export default class NavMenuButton extends React.Component{
constructor(props){
super(props)
}
render(){
const styles = {
navButton: this.props.navBarOpen
? {fontSize:26, cursor:'pointer', userSelect:'none'}
: {fontSize:26, cursor:'pointer', userSelect:'none'}
}
return(
<div>
<span
style={styles.navButton}
onClick={this.props.handleClick}
>
{'\u2630'}
</span>
{this.props.navBarOpen
? <p>its open</p>
: <p>its closed</p>}
</div>
);
}
}
This configuration is what I thought should work, but if I log the props in navMenuButton to the console, handleClick is undefined which really confuses me
toggleNavBar !== toggleNavbar - case sensitivity is very important :)
Im making my first react ptoject. Im new in JS, HTML, CSS and even web app programing.
What i try to do, is to display some infomration on button click.
I have an API, that looks like this:
endpoint: https://localhost:44344/api/Projects
My Data from it:
[{"id":1,"name":"Mini Jira","description":"Description for first project in list","tasks":null},{"id":2,"name":"Farm","description":"Description for second one","tasks":null}]
And im fine with that, i can get it easily by axios in my react app.
Now i will show you my Project.js Component:
import React, { Component } from "react";
import { ListGroupItem, Button, ButtonToolbar } from "react-bootstrap";
import ProjectDetails from "./ProjectDetails";
class Project extends Component {
render() {
return (
<ButtonToolbar>
<ListGroupItem>{this.props.project.name}</ListGroupItem>
<Button onClick={Here i want to display new component with details }bsStyle="primary">Details</Button>
</ButtonToolbar>
);
}
}
export default Project;
I have all data from api in project type.
My question is, how to display component that i named ProjectDetails.js on button click? I want to show all data stored in project from my api in separate view (new page or somethig like that).
View looks like this:
Thanks for any advices!
EDIT:
based on #Axnyff answer, i edited Project.js. it works ok. But when i want to (for testing) displat project.name, i get error map of undefined. My ProjectDetails.js:
import React, { Component } from "react";
class ProjectDetails extends Component {
state = {};
render() {
return <li>{this.props.project.name}</li>;
}
}
export default ProjectDetails;
EDIT2:
In Project.js in #Axnyff answet i just edited that line:
{this.state.showDetails && (
<ProjectDetails project={this.props.project} />
)}
i passed project by props, now it works like i want too. After click it displays project.name that i clicked on.
You should use state in your React component.
Let's create a field called showDetails in your state.
You can initialize it in your constructor with
constructor(props) {
super(props); // needed in javascript constructors
this.state = {
showDetails: false,
};
}
Then you need to modify the onClick to set that state to true
<Button onClick={() => this.setState({ showDetails : true })} bsStyle="primary">Details</Button>
And then use that state to show or not the ProjectDetails:
{ showDetails && <ProjectDetails /> }
The full component should look like
import React, { Component } from "react";
import { ListGroupItem, Button, ButtonToolbar } from "react-bootstrap";
import ProjectDetails from "./ProjectDetails";
class Project extends Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props); // needed in javascript constructors
this.state = {
showDetails: false,
};
}
render() {
return (
<ButtonToolbar>
<ListGroupItem>{this.props.project.name}</ListGroupItem>
<Button onClick={() => this.setState({ showDetails : true })} bsStyle="primary">Details</Button>
{ this.state.showDetails && <ProjectDetails /> }
</ButtonToolbar>
);
}
}
export default Project;
You can then modify the logic to add a toggling effect etc.
If you haven't done it, you should probably follow the official tutorial
function Bar() {
return <h1>I will be shown on click!</h1>;
}
class Foo extends React.Component {
constructor() {
super();
this.state = { showComponent: false };
}
handleClick = () => {
this.setState({ showComponent: !this.state.showComponent });
};
render() {
return (
<div>
{this.state.showComponent && <Bar />}
<button onClick={this.handleClick}>click</button>
</div>
);
}
}
ReactDOM.render(<Foo />, document.getElementById("root"));
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/react/16.6.3/umd/react.production.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/react-dom/16.6.3/umd/react-dom.production.min.js"></script>
<div id="root"></div>
I made an app with multiple components and want their state to be accessed using parent/main app, I'm not sure how to get it. what i'm trying to do is when i change state in main "App" the component state should change. One of the component is 'checkbox' and now i want to access its state using parent app, I made multiple attempts but not getting it done. my code goes like this..
This is Main 'App' code:
import React, { Component } from 'react';
import Checkbox from './checkbox';
import Radio from './Radio';
import ToggleSwitch from './ToggleSwitch';
import PrimaryButton from './PrimaryButton';
class App extends Component {
onClick(isClicked){
isChecked:true
};
render() {
return (
<div id="form">
<Checkbox
onClick={this.onClick}
/>
<RadioButton
onClick={this.onClick}
/>
</div>
);
}
}
export default App;
The component i want to access goes like this:
import React, { Component } from 'react';
class Checkbox extends Component {
constructor(props){
super(props);
this.state={
isChecked:true
};
};
onCheck(){
this.setState({
isChecked: !this.state.isChecked
});
this.props.isClicked()
};
render() {
return (
<div>
<div
className={this.state.isChecked ? 'checked': 'unchecked'}
onClick={this.onCheck.bind(this)}
>
</div>
</div>
);
}
}
export default Checkbox;
You forgot to bind the onClick event in the app component, try this it will work :
class App extends Component {
onClick(isClicked){
console.log('isClicked', isClicked);
};
render() {
return (
<div id="form">
<Checkbox onClick={this.onClick.bind(this)}/>
</div>
);
}
}
If you already have onClick handler for the Checkbox I don't see why you couldn't just move the state up to the App component and just pass down a callback from there to the Checkbox that will update the parent state. That seems like a more React way to do it, to me.
class App extends Component {
constructor(props){
super(props);
this.state={
isChecked:true
}
}
onClick = (isClicked) => {
this.setState({isChecked: !this.state.isChecked})
}
render() {
return (
<div id="form">
<Checkbox
onClick={this.onClick}
ischecked={this.state.isChecked}
/>
</div>
);
}
}
Component
class Checkbox extends Component {
onCheck(){
this.props.onClick()
}
render() {
return (
<div>
<div
className={this.props.isChecked ? 'checked': 'unchecked'}
onClick={this.onCheck.bind(this)}
>
</div>
</div>
)
}
}
I have a file named separatefile.jsx, in this file parent component name is Content and child component name is Child.
separatefile.jsx
import React from 'react';
import Parent from './learning.jsx';
class Content extends React.Component {
constructor() {
super();
this.state = {
finding : 'i am finding'
}
}
render() {
return (
<div>
<Child childprop={this.state.finding}/>
<Parent/>
</div>
);
}
}
class Child extends React.Component {
render() {
return (
<div>
<h2>{this.props.childprop}</h2>
<h1>child class property</h1>
</div>
);
}
}
export default Content;
This is another file named as learning.jsx , this file has Parent component named as Parent and Child component named as a Children.
My questions is that i need to access Parent component property(parent component for learning.jsx) from Child component(child component for separatefile.jsx file)...
learning.jsx
import React from 'react';
class Parent extends React.Component {
constructor() {
super();
this.state = {
searching : 'i will find the solution'
}
}
render() {
return (
<div>
<Children childrenprop={this.state.searching}/>
</div>
);
}
}
class Children extends React.Component {
render() {
return (
<div>
<h2>{this.props.childrenprop}</h2>
</div>
);
}
}
export default Parent;
If I understood you correctly, you want to use Parent's state in your Children component?
You can pass it down the component tree as props, e.g.:
class Content extends React.Component {
constructor() {
super();
this.state = {
finding : 'i am finding'
}
}
render() {
return (
<div>
<Child childprop={this.state.finding}/>
<Parent finding={this.state.finding} />
</div>
);
}
}
class Parent extends React.Component {
constructor() {
super();
this.state = {
searching : 'i will find the solution'
}
}
render() {
return (
<div>
<Children finding={this.props.finding} childrenprop={this.state.searching}/>
</div>
);
}
}
class Children extends React.Component {
render() {
return (
<div>
<h2>{this.props.childrenprop}</h2>
<div>{this.props.finding}</div>
</div>
);
}
}
It's probably not a direct answer but if you are starting a new app I would recommend you to use Redux with react-redux.
Redux is a predictable state container for JavaScript apps.
It helps you write applications that behave consistently, run in different environments (client, server, and native), and are easy to test. On top of that, it provides a great developer experience, such as live code editing combined with a time traveling debugger.
It's very small library so it's easy to understand how everything works. It might be a good solution to your problem.
Todo app example

Here is the answer about the redux benefits by its author Dan Abramov
The React documentation provides an answer.
For communication between two components that don't have a
parent-child relationship, you can set up your own global event
system. Subscribe to events in componentDidMount(), unsubscribe in
componentWillUnmount(), and call setState() when you receive an event.
Flux pattern is one of the possible ways to arrange this.
