@streammedev/react-compat v0.0.0

React Runtime Compatibility Layer

A module to maintain components with broad React version compatibility. This module can be used to have React components which are compatible from versions 0.12.0 through 15.5.2. As new versions of react come out we will add to this as we go.

Install

$ npm install --save @streammedev/react-compat

With React >15.5.0

With newer React's you need to also install prop-types and create-react-class.

$ npm install --save prop-types create-react-class

Usage

var React = require('React')
var reactCompat = require('@streammedev/react-compat')

var MyComponent = reactCompat.createClass({
  propTypes: {
    foo: reactCompat.PropTypes.object
  },
  render: function () {
    return <div ref={reactCompat.refSet(this, 'myRef')} onClick={this.doSomething} />
  },
  doSomething: function () {
    var domNode = reactCompat.refGet(this, 'myRef')
    // Do something with the dom node
  }
})

Development

This package follows semver. When you wish to publish a version run the proper npm command. For example, if we made a bug fix you can do this:

$ npm version patch
$ git push
$ npm publish

Here are the other types of version bumps:

• Major (npm version major): This is for breaking changes. Anytime a method is changed or the functionality is modified this bump should be made.
• Minor (npm version minor): This is for features additions. When a new method is added which doesn't affect the behavior of existing features, this bump should be made.
• Patch (npm version patch): This is for bug fixes. Only bump this if it is safe for production code to update wihout being QA'd. (AKA, almost never)

For each of these you can run a 'pre' version by prepending to the command, ex npm version preminor.

All feature development should be done on a branch off master. When a feature is complete and the pull request approved, publish a 'pre' version of the package for testing across environments. To install that 'pre' version of the package do the following, where the version number contains the correct 'pre' version:

$ npm install --save @streamme/react-compat@1.0.0-0

Running the tests:

$ npm install && npm test
