I am trying to create a checkbox component in react and since I already have four and will likely add more down the road, I thought using reactLink would help keep the code less verbose. However, I keep getting an error that Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'false' of null
Here's the component bones, note I'm not yet handling the change - trying to tackle one thing at a time...
var NewCheckInput = React.createClass({
mixins: [React.addons.LinkedStateMixin],
render: function(){
var filter = this.props.listFilters;
var inputData = this;
console.log(filter);
console.log(this.props.inputValue);
var input = (<input
type="checkbox"
onChange={this.handleChange}
name={inputData.props.inputId}
checked={this.props.inputValue}
id={inputData.props.inputId}
checkedLink={this.linkState(filter.for_sale)} />);
var label = (
<label htmlFor={inputData.props.inputId}>
{inputData.props.inputName}
</label>);
if (this.props.inputLabel){
var inputSection = <section>{input} {label}</section>
} else {
var inputSection = <section>{input}</section>
}
return inputSection
}
});
Here's where the Component get's called by it's parent component - isolated for brevity:
var ControllerForm = React.createClass({
render: function(){
var filter = this.props.listFilters;
return (
<form>
<NewCheckInput
inputType="checkbox"
inputId="for-sale"
refs="for_sale"
inputName="For Sale (3+ Years)"
inputLabel ="true"
inputValue={filter.for_sale}
{...this.props} />
</form>
)
}
});
Here's where I set my states (at the root of the application):
var FilterGrid = React.createClass({
mixins: [React.addons.LinkedStateMixin],
getInitialState: function(){
return {
search: '',
all: true,
for_sale: false,
zuchtstuten: false,
nachzucht: false
}
},
render: function() {
return (<section className="wrapper filter-grid">
<GridController listFilters={this.state} />
<GridList listFilters={this.state} items={horseArr} />
</section>)
}
});
React.render(
<FilterGrid/>,
document.getElementById('filter-grid')
);
and here's the console.log of what I believe to be the state object passed along as props inside the NewCheckInput
Object {search: "", all: true, for_sale: false, zuchtstuten: false, nachzucht: false}
Forgive me if there's some general idiotic coding going on here, still working on best practices, correct patterns, etc.
first of all, here's a quote from facebook's react:
If you're new to the framework, note that ReactLink is not needed for most applications and should be used cautiously.
so I would suggest you not to use linkState. (It's up to you)
Here's the code for check component
'use strict'; var React = require('react'); var CheckBox = React.createClass({ propTypes: { name : React.PropTypes.string, checked : React.PropTypes.bool, description : React.PropTypes.string, checkStatusChanged : React.PropTypes.func }, getDefaultProps: function() { return { name : '', checked : false, description : '', checkStatusChanged : function() {} }; }, getInitialState: function() { return { checked: this.props.checked }; }, _handleCheckChanged: function(event) { this.props.checkStatusChanged(this.props.name, event.target.checked); this.setState({checked: event.target.checked}); }, render: function() { /* jshint ignore:start */ return ( <div> <label> <input type="checkbox" onChange={this._handleCheckChanged} checked={this.state.checked} /> {this.props.description} </label> </div> ); /* jshint ignore:end */ } }); module.exports = CheckBox;
Now here's the code for the parent
'use strict'; var React = require('react'), CheckBox = require('./components/check-box'), ExampleApp; ExampleApp = React.createClass({ _handleCheckStatusChanged: function(name, value) { console.log(name, value); }, render: function() { return ( /*jshint ignore:start */ <div> <h2>Hello, World</h2> <CheckBox name="cb1" description="check me" checkStatusChanged={this._handleCheckStatusChanged} /> <CheckBox name="cb2" description="check me" checkStatusChanged={this._handleCheckStatusChanged} checked={true} /> </div> /*jshint ignore:end */ ); } }); React.render( /*jshint ignore:start */ <ExampleApp />, /*jshint ignore:end */ document.getElementById('app') );
Hope these helps.
happy coding!
