Components
----------
{: .-three-column}
### Components
{: .-prime}
```jsx
import React from 'react'
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom'
```
{: .-setup}
```jsx
class Hello extends React.Component {
render () {
return <div className='message-box'>
Hello {this.props.name}
</div>
}
}
```
```jsx
const el = document.body
ReactDOM.render(<Hello name='John' />, el)
```
Use the [React.js jsfiddle](http://jsfiddle.net/reactjs/69z2wepo/) to start hacking. (or the unofficial [jsbin](http://jsbin.com/yafixat/edit?js,output))
### Properties
```html
<Video fullscreen={true} />
```
{: .-setup}
```jsx
render () {
this.props.fullscreen
···
}
```
{: data-line="2"}
Use `this.props` to access properties passed to the component.
See: [Properties](https://facebook.github.io/react/docs/tutorial.html#using-props)
### States
```jsx
this.setState({ username: 'rstacruz' })
```
```jsx
render () {
this.state.username
···
}
```
Use states (`this.state`) to manage dynamic data.
See: [States](https://facebook.github.io/react/docs/tutorial.html#reactive-state)
### Function components
```jsx
function MyComponent ({ name }) {
return <div className='message-box'>
Hello {name}
</div>
}
```
Functional components have no state. Also, their `props` are passed as the first parameter to a function.
See: [Function and Class Components](https://facebook.github.io/react/docs/components-and-props.html#functional-and-class-components)
### Nesting
```jsx
class Info extends React.Component {
render () {
const { avatar, username } = this.props
return <div>
<UserAvatar src={avatar} />
<UserProfile username={username} />
</div>
}
}
```
{: data-line="6,7"}
Nest components to separate concerns. See: [Composing Components](https://facebook.github.io/react/docs/components-and-props.html#composing-components)
### Setting default props
```jsx
Hello.defaultProps = {
color: 'blue'
}
```
See: [defaultProps](https://facebook.github.io/react/docs/react-component.html#defaultprops)
### Setting default state
```jsx
class Hello extends React.Component {
constructor (props) {
super(props)
this.state = { visible: true }
}
}
```
{: data-line="4"}
Set the default state in the `constructor()`.
### Children
```jsx
class AlertBox extends React.Component {
render () {
return <div className='alert-box'>
{this.props.children}
</div>
}
}
```
{: data-line="4"}
```jsx
<AlertBox>
<h1>You have pending notifications</h1>
</AlertBox>
```
Children are passed as the `children` property.
### Component API
```jsx
this.forceUpdate()
```
```jsx
this.setState({ ... })
```
```jsx
this.state
this.props
```
These methods and properies are available for `Component` instances. See: [Component API](http://facebook.github.io/react/docs/component-api.html)
Lifecycle
---------
{: .-two-column}
### Mounting
| Method | Description |
| --- | --- |
| `constructor` _(props)_ | Before rendering [#](https://facebook.github.io/react/docs/react-component.html#constructor) |
| `componentWillMount()` | _Don't use this_ [#](https://facebook.github.io/react/docs/react-component.html#componentwillmount) |
| `render()` | Render [#](https://facebook.github.io/react/docs/react-component.html#render) |
| `componentDidMount()` | After rendering (DOM available) [#](https://facebook.github.io/react/docs/react-component.html#componentdidmount) |
| --- | --- |
| `componentWillUnmount()` | Before DOM removal [#](https://facebook.github.io/react/docs/react-component.html#componentwillunmount) |
Set initial the state on `constructor()`.
Add DOM event handlers, timers (etc) on `componentDidMount()`, then remove them on `componentWillUnmount()`.
### Updating
| Method | Description |
| --- | --- |
| `componentWillReceiveProps` *(newProps)* | Use `setState()` here |
| `shouldComponentUpdate` *(newProps, newState)* | Skips `render()` if returns false |
| `componentWillUpdate` *(newProps, newState)* | Can't use `setState()` here |
| `render()` | Render |
| `componentDidUpdate` *(prevProps, prevState)* | Operate on the DOM here |
Called when parents change properties and `.setState()`. These are not called for initial renders. See: [Reference](http://facebook.github.io/react/docs/component-specs.html#updating-componentwillreceiveprops).
DOM nodes
---------
{: .-two-column}
### References
```jsx
class MyComponent extends React.Component {
render () {
return <div>
<input ref={el => this.input = el} />
</div>
}
componentDidMount () {
this.input.focus()
}
}
```
{: data-line="4,9"}
Allows access to DOM nodes. See: [Refs and the DOM](https://facebook.github.io/react/docs/refs-and-the-dom.html)
### DOM Events
```jsx
class MyComponent extends React.Component {
render () {
<input type="text"
value={this.state.value}
onChange={event => this.onChange(event)} />
}
onChange (event) {
this.setState({ value: event.target.vlaue })
}
}
```
{: data-line="5,9"}
Pass functions to attributes like `onChange`. See: [Events](https://facebook.github.io/react/docs/events.html)
## Other features
### Transfering props
```html
<VideoPlayer src="video.mp4" />
```
{: .-setup}
```jsx
class VideoPlayer extends React.Component {
render () {
return <VideoEmbed {...this.props} />
}
}
```
{: data-line="3"}
Propagates `src="..."` down to the sub-component.
See [Transferring props](http://facebook.github.io/react/docs/transferring-props.html).
### Top-level API
```jsx
React.createClass({ ... })
React.isValidElement(c)
```
```jsx
ReactDOM.render(<Component />, domnode, [callback])
ReactDOM.unmountComponentAtNode(domnode)
```
```jsx
ReactDOMServer.renderToString(<Component />)
ReactDOMServer.renderToStaticMarkup(<Component />)
```
JSX patterns
------------
{: .-two-column}
### Style shorthand
```jsx
var style = { height: 10 }
return <div style={style}></div>
```
```jsx
return <div style={{ margin: 0, padding: 0 }}></div>
```
See: [Inline styles](https://facebook.github.io/react/tips/inline-styles.html)
### Inner HTML
```jsx
function markdownify() { return "<p>...</p>"; }
<div dangerouslySetInnerHTML={{__html: markdownify()}} />
```
See: [Dangerously set innerHTML](https://facebook.github.io/react/tips/dangerously-set-inner-html.html)
### Lists
```jsx
class TodoList extends React.Component {
render () {
const { items } = this.props
return <ul>
{items.map(item =>
<TodoItem item={item} key={item.key} />)}
</ul>
}
}
```
{: data-line="6,7"}
Always supply a `key` property.
### Conditionals
```jsx
<div>
{showPopup
? <Popup />
: null}
</div>
```

```jsx
MyCo.propTypes = {
user: PropTypes.shape({
name: PropTypes.string,
age: PropTypes.number
})
}
```
Use `.array[Of]`, `.object[Of]`, `.instanceOf`, `.shape`.
### Custom validation
