I'm trying to update the title of the document in a React app. I have very simple needs for this. The title is essentially used to put the Total component on display even when you're on a different tab.
This was my first instinct:
const React = require('react');
export default class Total extends React.Component {
shouldComponentUpdate(nextProps) {
//otherstuff
document.title = this.props.total.toString();
console.log("Document title: ", document.title);
return true;
}
render() {
document.title = this.props.total;
return (
<div className="text-center">
<h1>{this.props.total}</h1>
</div>
);
}
}
I thought this would just update the document.title every time this component was rendered, but it doesn't appear to do anything.
Not sure what I'm missing here. Probably something to do with how React runs this function - maybe somewhere that the document variable isn't available?
EDIT:
I'm starting a bounty for this question, as I still haven't found any solution. I've updated my code to a more recent version.
A weird development is that the console.log does print out the title I'm looking for. But for some reason, the actual title in the tab isn't updating. This issue is the same across Chrome, Safari, and Firefox.
I now use react-helmet for this purpose, as it allows to customize different meta tags and links, and it also supports SSR.
import { Helmet } from 'react-helmet'
const Total = () => (
<div className="text-center">
<Helmet>
<meta charSet="utf-8" />
<title>{this.props.total}</title>
</Helmet>
<h1>{this.props.total}</h1>
</div>
)
Original answer: there's actually a package by gaeron for this purpose, but in a declarative way:
import React, { Component } from 'react'
import DocumentTitle from 'react-document-title'
export default class Total extends Component {
render () {
return (
<DocumentTitle title={this.props.total}>
<div className='text-center'>
<h1>{this.props.total}</h1>
</div>
</DocumentTitle>
)
}
}
Inside your componentDidMount() function in App.js (or wherever), simply have:
componentDidMount() {
document.title = "Amazing Page";
}
The reason this works is anywhere in your react project you have access to the Js global scope. Go ahead and type window in your sites console. Basically everything there you will be able to access in your React project.
I think webpack-dev-server runs in an iframe mode by default:
https://webpack.github.io/docs/webpack-dev-server.html#iframe-mode
So that might be why your attempts to set the title are failing. Try setting the inline option to true on webpack-dev-server, if you haven't already.
If the react-document-title package isn't working for you, the quick'n'dirty way to do that would be in a lifecycle method, probably both componentDidMount and componentWillReceiveProps (you can read more about those here):
So you would do something like:
const React = require('react');
export default class Total extends React.Component {
// gets called whenever new props are assigned to the component
// but NOT during the initial mount/render
componentWillReceiveProps(nextProps) {
document.title = this.props.total;
}
// gets called during the initial mount/render
componentDidMount() {
document.title = this.props.total;
}
render() {
return (
<div className="text-center">
<h1>{this.props.total}</h1>
</div>
);
}
}
There is a better way of dynamically changing document title with react-helmet package.
As a matter of fact you can dynamically change anything inside <head> tag using react-helmet from inside your component.
const componentA = (props) => {
return (
<div>
<Helmet>
<title>Your dynamic document/page Title</title>
<meta name="description" content="Helmet application" />
</Helmet>
.....other component content
);
}
To change title, meta tags and favicon dynamically at run time react-helmet provides a simple solution. You can also do this in componentDidMount using the standard document interface. In the example below I am using the same code for multiple sites, so helmet is looking for favicon and title from an environment variable
import { Helmet } from "react-helmet";
import { getAppStyles } from '../relative-path';
import { env } from '../relative-path';
<Helmet>
<meta charSet="utf-8" />
<title>{pageTitle[env.app.NAME].title}</title>
<link rel="shortcut icon" href={appStyles.favicon} />
</Helmet>

This previous SO question shows how we can use a Vue2 component as the content of a LeafletJS popup. I've been unable to get this working with Vue3.
Extracting the relevant section of my code, I have:
<script setup lang="ts">
import { ref } from 'vue'
import L, { type Content } from 'leaflet'
import type { FeatureCollection, Feature } from 'geojson'
import LeafletPopup from '#/components/LeafletPopup.vue'
// This ref will be matched by Vue to the element with the same ref name
const popupDialogElement = ref(null)
function addFeaturePopup(feature:Feature, layer:L.GeoJSON) {
if (popupDialogElement?.value !== null) {
const content:Content = popupDialogElement.value as HTMLElement
layer.bindPopup(() => content.$el)
}
}
</script>
<template>
<div class="map-container">
<section id="map">
</section>
<leaflet-popup ref="popupDialogElement" v-show="false">
</leaflet-popup>
</div>
</template>
This does produce a popup when I click on the map, but it has no content.
If, instead, I change line 14 to:
layer.bindPopup(() => content.$el.innerHTML)
then I do get a popup with the HTML markup I expect, but unsurprisingly I lose all of the Vue behaviours I need (event handling, etc).
Inspecting the addFeaturePopup function in the JS debugger, the content does seem to be an instance of HTMLElement, so I'm not sure why it's not working to pass it to Leaflet's bindPopup method. I assume this has something to do with how Vue3 handles references, but as yet I can't see a way around it.
Update 2022-06-09
As requested, here's the console.log output: I've put it in a gist as it's quite long
So just to document the solution I ended up using, I needed to add an additional style rule in addition to the general skeleton outlined in the question:
<style>
.leaflet-popup-content >* {
display: block !important;
}
</style>
This overrides the display:none that is attached to the DOM node by v-show=false. It would be nice not to need the !important, but I wasn't able to make the rule selective enough in my experiments.
I use jquery datepicker and it not display after I click ajax button.
Is there any way to show datepicker again after click? I use wicket 8.
BasePage.java
public class BasePage extends WebPage {
...
}
BasePage.html

Form<SearchForm> form = new Form<>(new CompoundPropertyModel<SearchForm>(searchForm))
AjaxButton btn = new AjaxButton() {
protected void onSubmit(AjaxRequest target) {
// Handle search data
...
target.add(form);
}
};
TextField<String> date = new TextField<>("searchDate");
form.add(date);
form.add(btn);
}
}

});
After click ajax button all script in file main.js not working
Please help me.
when you update form via AJAX you replace each element inside it, which includes the input field you use with datepicker. But doing so you loose the javascript setting done by main.js when page was first loaded.
You can solve this in two ways. First, you could update only those elements that need to be refreshed, for example the component that you use to show search result (I suppose there must be such an element in your code).
The second solution, more heavier and complicated, is to make a custom TextField component that execute the datepicker javascript code each time is rendered.
An example of such solution can be found is in the user guide: https://wicket-guide.herokuapp.com/wicket/bookmarkable/org.wicketTutorial.ajaxdatepicker.HomePage
I would recommend to follow the first solution as it's more natural and simpler and requires less code.
UPDATE:
If you want to refresh the textfield another simple solution is to use target.appendJavaScript​ to reapply the datepicker plugin:
target.add("$('#" + date.getMarkupId() + "').datepicker();");
this should add the datepicker to the fresh new field.
Originally, I had it working fine.
Then I did this and now I can't get it to work
ClipboardField.js
import React from 'react';
export default (props) => {
return(
<div id="clip" data-clipboard-text={props.code} onClick={props.onClick}>
<p> Copy to clipboard.</p>
</div>
);
}
Field.js
class DashWizardTwoCore extends Component {
componentDidMount(){
const btns = document.getElementById('clip');
const clipboard = new Clipboard(btns);
}
componentDidUpdate() {
clipboard.on('success', function(e) {
console.log(e);
});
clipboard.on('error', function(e) {
console.log(e);
});
}
render(){
const someCode = "const foo = 1"
return (
<div>
<ClipboardField code={this.someCode} /> }
</div>
);
}
}
If you take the code out of ClipboardField and into Field it works. It's mostly, how do I use document.getElementById() in my parent component to find something in my child?
Their examples:
https://github.com/zenorocha/clipboard.js/blob/master/demo/constructor-selector.html#L18
https://github.com/zenorocha/clipboard.js/blob/master/demo/constructor-node.html#L16-L17
https://github.com/zenorocha/clipboard.js/blob/master/demo/constructor-nodelist.html#L18-L19
Your code is fine you just have a few issues:
you are binding clipboard.on in componentDidUpdate which won't trigger here since you are not really changing anything (in the ClipboardField component) that triggers this event.
You are passing {this.someCode} in the code prop which would be undefined should just be {someCode}
So it's just a matter of moving your clipboard.on to the componentDidMount right after the new Clipboard and use code={someCode}

In React whenever you want to access the actual dom element of your component we use what react calls as refs, I would suggest you do this rather than using getElementById as this is the "best practice".
However stateless components (like your ClipboardField component above) can't have refs so you just need to change it to be a normal component.
Here's a fiddle with your code but using refs instead: https://jsfiddle.net/e5wqk2a2/
I tried including links to the react docs for stateless components and refs but apparently don't have enough "rep" to post more than 2 links, anyways quick google search should point you in the right direction.
I adjusted your code and created a simple integration of clipboard.js with React.
Here's the fiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/mrlew/ehrbvkc1/13/ . Check it out.
I have a string which contains a name of the Class (this is coming from a json file). This string tells my Template Class which layout / template to use for the data (also in json). The issue is my layout is not displaying.
Home.jsx:
//a template or layout.
var Home = React.createClass({
render () {
return (
<div>Home layout</div>
)
}
});
Template.jsx:
var Template = React.createClass({
render: function() {
var Tag = this.props.template; //this is the name of the class eg. 'Home'
return (
<Tag />
);
}
});
I don't get any errors but I also don't see the layout / Home Class. I've checked the props.template and this logs the correct info. Also, I can see the home element in the DOM. However it looks like this:
<div id='template-holder>
<home></home>
</div>
If I change following line to:
var Tag = Home;
//this works but it's not dynamic!
Any ideas, how I can fix this? I'm sure it's either simple fix or I'm doing something stupid. Help would be appreciated. Apologies if this has already been asked (I couldn't find it).
Thanks,
Ewan
This will not work:
var Home = React.createClass({ ... });
var Component = "Home";
React.render(<Component />, ...);
However, this will:
var Home = React.createClass({ ... });
var Component = Home;
React.render(<Component />, ...);
So you simply need to find a way to map between the string "Home" and the component class Home. A simple object will work as a basic registry, and you can build from there if you need more features.
var components = {
"Home": Home,
"Other": OtherComponent
};
var Component = components[this.props.template];
No need to manually map your classes to a dictionary, or "registry", as in Michelle's answer. A wildcard import statement is already a dictionary!
import * as widgets from 'widgets';
const Type = widgets[this.props.template];
...
<Type />
You can make it work with multiple modules by merging all the dictionaries into one:
import * as widgets from 'widgets';
import * as widgets2 from 'widgets2';
const registry = Object.assign({}, widgets, widgets2);
const widget = registry[this.props.template];
I would totally do this to get dynamic dispatch of react components. In fact I think I am in a bunch of projects.
I had the same problem, and found out the solution by myself. I don't know if is the "best pratice" but it works and I'm using it currently in my solution.
You can simply make use of the "evil" eval function to dynamically create an instance of a react component. Something like:
function createComponent(componentName, props, children){
var component = React.createElement(eval(componentName), props, children);
return component;
}
Then, just call it where you want:
var homeComponent = createComponent('Home', [props], [...children]);
If it fits your needs, maybe you can consider something like this.
Hope it helps.
I wanted to know how to create React classes dynamically from a JSON spec loaded from a database and so I did some experimenting and figured it out. My basic idea was that I wanted to define a React app through a GUI instead of typing in code in a text editor.
This is compatible with React 16.3.2. Note React.createClass has been moved into its own module.
Here's condensed version of the essential parts:
import React from 'react'
import ReactDOMServer from 'react-dom/server'
import createReactClass from 'create-react-class'
const spec = {
// getDefaultProps
// getInitialState
// propTypes: { ... }
render () {
return React.createElement('div', null, 'Some text to render')
}
}
const component = createReactClass(spec)
const factory = React.createFactory(component)
const instance = factory({ /* props */ })
const str = ReactDOMServer.renderToStaticMarkup(instance)
console.log(str)
You can see a more complete example here:
https://github.com/brennancheung/02-dynamic-react/blob/master/src/commands/tests/createClass.test.js
Here is the way it will work from a string content without embedding your components as statically linked code into your package, as others have suggested.
import React from 'react';
import { Button } from 'semantic-ui-react';
import createReactClass from 'create-react-class';
export default class Demo extends React.Component {
render() {
const s = "return { render() { return rce('div', null, rce(components['Button'], {content: this.props.propA}), rce(components['Button'], {content: 'hardcoded content'})); } }"
const createComponentSpec = new Function("rce", "components", s);
const componentSpec = createComponentSpec(React.createElement, { "Button": Button });
const component = React.createElement(createReactClass(componentSpec), { propA: "content from property" }, null);
return (
<div>
{component}
</div>
)
}
}
The React class specification is in string s. Note the following:
rce stands for React.createElement and given as a first param when callingcreateComponentSpec.
components is a dictionary of extra component types and given as a second param when callingcreateComponentSpec. This is done so that you can provide components with clashing names.
For example string Button can be resolved to standard HTML button, or button from Semantic UI.
You can easily generate content for s by using https://babeljs.io as described in https://reactjs.org/docs/react-without-jsx.html. Essentially, the string can't contain JSX stuff, and has to be plain JavaScript. That's what BabelJS is doing by translating JSX into JavaScript.
All you need to do is replace React.createElement with rce, and resolve external components via components dictionary (if you don't use external components, that you can skip the dictionary stuff).
Here is equivalent what in the code above. The same <div> with two Semantic UI Buttons in it.
JSX render() code:
function render() {
return (
<div>
<Button content={this.props.propA}/>
<Button content='hardcoded content'/>
</div>
);
}
BabelJS translates it into:
function render() {
return React.createElement("div", null, React.createElement(Button, {
content: this.props.propA
}), React.createElement(Button, {
content: "hardcoded content"
}));
}
And you do replacement as outlined above:
render() { return rce('div', null, rce(components['Button'], {content: this.props.propA}), rce(components['Button'], {content: 'hardcoded content'})); }
Calling createComponentSpec function will create a spec for React class.
Which then converted into actual React class with createReactClass.
And then brought to life with React.createElement.
All you need to do is return it from main component render func.
When you use JSX you can either render HTML tags (strings) or React components (classes).
When you do var Tag = Home, it works because the JSX compiler transforms it to:
var Template = React.createElement(Tag, {});
with the variable Tag in the same scope and being a React class.
var Tag = Home = React.createClass({
render () {
return (
<div>Home layout</div>
)
}
});
When you do
var Tag = this.props.template; // example: Tag = "aClassName"
you are doing
var Template = React.createElement("aClassName", null);
But "aClassName" is not a valid HTML tag.

I am trying to embed Google-Plus into my GWT Application. I would like it to be embedded into a HorizontalPanel. I did read +1button developers google. I didn't find any post about this particular problem in stackoverflow. My problem might be that I don't understand how to include the js into a GUI component. I would appreciate an Example of how to add the Google+ code into a Panel.
Here is how to do it:
Documentation:
<!-- Place this tag in your head or just before your close body tag -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://apis.google.com/js/plusone.js"></script>
<!-- Place this tag where you want the +1 button to render -->
<g:plusone></g:plusone>
in GWT:
private void drawPlusOne() {
String s = "<g:plusone href=\"http://urltoplusone.com\"></g:plusone>";
HTML h = new HTML(s);
somePanel.add(h);
// You can insert a script tag this way or via your .gwt.xml
Document doc = Document.get();
ScriptElement script = doc.createScriptElement();
script.setSrc("https://apis.google.com/js/plusone.js");
script.setType("text/javascript");
script.setLang("javascript");
doc.getBody().appendChild(script);
}
I've personally never embedded the +1 button in GWT, but the linked article seems pretty self explanatory.
In the section "A Simple Button", it indicates that the simplest way of implementing GooglePlus integration is to add this:
<script src="https://apis.google.com/js/plusone.js" />
<g:plusone></g:plusone>
First, the <script> tag should be included in your .gwt.xml file.
Then I'd implement the <g:plusone></g:plusone> like this:
public class GPlusOne extends SimplePanel {
public GPlusOne () {
super((Element)Document.get().createElement("g:plusone").cast());
}
}
(Note that this code is untested, but it's based on the simple concept that a SimplePanel can be extended to compile as any HTML element.)
Then you'd use the new GPlusOne element wherever you'd want the button to show.
I found a better way to do it:
Follow this example to have the button work on invocation on a normal html page (you can try one here http://jsfiddle.net/JQAdc/)
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
<script src="https://apis.google.com/js/plusone.js">
{"parsetags": "explicit"}
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
function gPlusBtn(id, params) {
/* window.alert("searching for "+ id +" with params: "+ params) */
paramsObj = eval( '('+params+')' );
gapi.plusone.render(id, paramsObj );
}
// params is here just for a reference to simulate what will come from gwt
params = '{href:"http://1vu.fr", size:"tall"}';
</script>
</head>
<body>
taken from http://jsfiddle.net/JQAdc/
<div id="gplus" />
<button onclick="gPlusBtn('gplus', params)">show!</button>
</body>
</html>
Then you can call a native method to trigger the button display on Activity start (if you're using MVP).
protected native void plusOneButton(String id, String params) /*-{
$wnd.gPlusBtn(id, params);
}-*/;
You can have multiple buttons with different urls, that's why id is left as a parameter.
NOTE: for me the raw HTML works on localhost, but the GWT version. I have to deploy to the server to be able to see the results
