React: Can't export const

Question

I'm trying to one line export const my <SearchForm/> but for some reason it's erroring out.

Here is my code

import React from 'react';

export const SearchForm = props => (
  <form className="search-form" onSubmit={props.onSubmit}>
    <input placeholder="Username" type="text" value={props.value} onChange={props.onChange}></input>
    <input type="submit" value="Search"></input>
  </form>)

SearchForm.propTypes = {
  onSubmit: React.PropTypes.func.isRequired,
  value: React.PropTypes.string.isRequired,
  onChange: React.PropTypes.func.isRequired
}

React.createElement: type is invalid -- expected a string (for built-in components) or a class/function (for composite components) but got: undefined. You likely forgot to export your component from the file it's defined in. Check the render method of Home .

It's fine if I do const SearchForm = props => ..... and export default <SearchForm/> at the bottom. I've also tried export default SearchForm... and other variations.

I'm following an egghead.io tutorial and the guys using the exact same syntax so I have no idea what's wrong? Here's his code

Answer 1

I guess you currently use

import SearchForm  from './SearchForm';

But because your export

export const SearchForm = props => (

So you must use this syntax

import {SearchForm} from './SearchForm';

To conclude:

When export default, import with no {}

When export without default, import with {}

Answer 2

how did you import your component ? You should try to add default after export:

export default class...
