Inline Edit Component - TextArea Mod for React

Before you continue, check out a successor to this repo: React Inline Edit Kit. It is more functional, and will be maintained in future.

This is a simple React component for in-place text editing. It turns into an <textarea /> when focused, and tries to validate and save input on Enter or blur. Esc works as well for cancelling.

Tabs can be used to move through the textarea fields, pressing enter will open the field for editing.

If there is a parent div with the class container-fluid, a class is added to the 'editingResume' class is added to the container.

The textarea is auto sized to fit current size of text content.

Installation

npm install react-edit-inline-textarea --save-dev

Required props

• text:string initial text
• paramName:string name of the parameter to be returned to change function
• change:function function to call when new text is changed and validated, it will receive {paramName: value}

      this.state = {
        message: 'ReactInline demo'
