I created a demo react app with 'npx create-react-app my-app'. When I try to apply style to React component nothing happens, but when I apply it to a normal HTML tag like <div or <p> it works. I do not why.
I also tried adding :local in the css file like: :local(.taken-frame)
// index.js =================
import './style.css';
ReactDOM.render(
<TakenFrame className="taken-frame"/>,
document.getElementById('root')
);
// style.css ===============
.taken-frame{
color: blue;
}
Css styles are applied to JSX elements in react but not to the component
Wrong way of applying css styles but className is still a valid prop to the component. You can access this using this.props.className and pass to the div as className like I mentioned in right way example
<TakenFrame className="taken-frame" />
Right way of applying css styles
class TakenFrame extends React.Component {
render(){
return(
<div className="taken-frame">
</div>
//OR
<div className={this.props.className}>
</div>
)
}
}
I use the following style:
import styles from 'yourstyles.css'
...
class TakenFrame extends React.Component {
render(){
return(
<div className={styles.classNameDeclaredInCssFile}>
</div>
)
}
}
yourstyles.css file should look something like:
.classNameDeclaredInCssFile{
//... your styles here
}
In your case you are simply passing a property called "className" to your component but not using it. In your component if you did something like:
class TakenFrame extends React.Component {
render(){
return(
<div className={this.props.className}>
</div>
)
}
}
It would work I expect but I prefer to keep my styles assigned to each component, I find it adds confusion for me as a developer when I am passing styles around the component hierarchy a lot. I hope this helps.
You could use styled components as-well. Please refer https://glamorous.rocks/basics

Using React with Meteor, how can I render a HTML tag with custom properties?
For example,
<div class="page-header-image" data-parallax="true" filter-color="orange" style="background-image: url('./assets/img/header.jpg');">
has custom property filter-color="orange" which we want to render using the render function of a Reat.Component:
import React from 'react';
export default class Home extends React.Component {
render() {
return (
<div className="page-header-image" filter-color="orange" style={ {backgroundImage: "url('./assets/img/header.jpg')"} }></div>
);
}
}
Also, is there a neat way to include these properties especially when you have many tags with custom HTML properties?
I'm new to this framework and I was wondering whether or not there's a component binding that allows you to specify the component to be used on a regular HTML element and not a custom one.
Let's say we have a Message component. Would it be possible to use it as:
<div component="message"></div>
instead of
<message></message>
Knockout.js supports this for their components: The "component" binding.
Yep! You can use the as-element custom attribute to do this.
Here's an example: https://gist.run?id=5fc98df81dff7eec2868ea918f6342fb
app.html
<template>
<require from="./message"></require>
<message say="Say"></message>
<div as-element="message" say.bind="what"></div>
</template>
app.js
export class App {
what = 'What!'
}
message.html
<template>
<h1>${say}</h1>
</template>
message.js
import {bindable} from 'aurelia-framework';
export class MessageCustomElement {
#bindable say = '';
}
rendered
As we know from the documentation of React, we can dangerously set custom HTML in the JSX component like this:
<div dangerouslySetInnerHTML={{__html: '<b>Hello</b>, <i>World</i>'}} />
The question is that are we able to set plain text JSX in other JSX component like this:
import { Button } from 'react-bootstrap'
...
<div dangerouslySetJSX={{__jsx: '<Button>Hello</Button>'}} />
or some else way.
I just want to know if there is any way I can "draw" in my index.html multiple <div id = "x" /> <div id = "y" /> with REACT, i mean.. i have all my site on index.html with all my template, so i only need to use REACT on an specifics sections...
i tried this i didnt work
HTML
<div id="test" />
<div id="app" />
<script src="public/bundle.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
JSX
import React from 'react';
import {render} from 'react-dom';
class App extends React.Component {
render () {
return (<h1>App</h1>);
}
}
class Test extends React.Component {
render () {
return (<h1>Test</h1>);
}
}
render(<App/>, document.getElementById('app'));
render(<Test/>, document.getElementById('test'));
then when i load the page only prints the <h1>Test</h1>... why?
I created a JSFiddle to try a few things out here: http://jsfiddle.net/pof580fd/1/
I found out that by explicitly closing each of the <div> tags I could get it to work, i.e.:
<div id="test"></div>
<div id="app"></div>
I did a little research and it appears that as div is not one of the HTML5 "void elements" (Listed here: https://www.w3.org/TR/html5/syntax.html#void-elements) it is not self-closing and you must use </div>. See this SO question for more details: Are (non-void) self-closing tags valid in HTML5?
Possibly some browsers are lenient about this (I'm using Chrome 52 right now) - but React is not, it appears. The error message I see in the console is:
Uncaught Error: Invariant Violation: _registerComponent(...): Target container is not a DOM element.
(Make sure you're using the "dev" version of React to see these)
You can create a new component and call from that.
import App from "./App";
import Test from "./Test";
class Program extends React.Component {
render() {
<div>
<div id="app"><App /></div>
<div id="test"><Test /></div>
</div>
}
}
and then call
render(<Program />), document.getElementById('...'));
We created a framework to do this with great success.
Have a look at React Habitat.
With it you can just register components eg:
container.register('SomeReactComponent', SomeReactComponent);
Then they auto resolve in the dom via:
<div data-component="SomeReactComponent"></div>
How can I specify that a component should be rendered absolutely before any other component?
I want to specify that <Footer /> and all the child components of footer should be rendered before any other components.
The reason I want this is because I have code that depends on the html that footer is rendering which means that the reference to <Footer /> is undefined in the other components if <Footer /> doesn't render first.
Here's an example:
export default class Layout extends React.Component {
...
render(){
return (
<Body />
<Footer /> //Render first
);
}
}
The only way I see for you do do that is:
Have the information about the render status for the footer in a state. (Let's assume your name it isFooterRendered and it is a boolean)
You set isFooterRendered to be false in the initial state.
You only render the children components when isFooterRendered is true
In componentDidMount you will have a reference to Footer, set isFooterRendered to be true.
(Some people claim that it's bad to setState on componentDidMount but in your case looks like a legit use case, aside from that React Docs expose a similar example)
