I have a component with an input-element, i use defaultValue to set the initial value. I want to focus that element and select the whole value initially, but it seems that the defaultvalue is not set when componentDidMount is called.
Do you have any tips?
i use window.setTimeout but i want to avoid that in my react-components:
public componentDidMount(): void {
if (this.props.focus) {
let tInput: HTMLInputElement = ReactDOM.findDOMNode(this).getElementsByTagName("input").item(0);
if (tInput) {
tInput.focus();
// FixMe: defaultValue is set too late by react so i cant set selection instantly
if (this.props.defaultValue) {
window.setTimeout(
() => {tInput.setSelectionRange(0, this.props.defaultValue.length); },
100
);
}
}
}
}
Works fine for me:
class MyComponent extends React.Component {
componentDidMount () {
const { myInput } = this.refs
myInput.focus()
myInput.select()
}
render () {
return (
<input type='text' defaultValue='Foobar' ref='myInput' />
)
}
}
I wouldn't use any reactDOM methods other than render/renderToString. These apis are "escape hatches" and usage is not recommended.
