React Reactive Class

What?

With React Reactive Class, you can create Reactive Components, which subscribe Rx.Observables and re-render themselves.

Features

• Reactive DOM elements: A set of reactive DOM elements (button, div, span, etc).

• Reactive wrapper: A higher order component to wrap your existing component to be a Reactive Component.

Installation

npm install --save react-reactive-class

Usage

Use reactive DOM elements

import React from 'react';
import Rx from 'rx';

import {dom} from 'react-reactive-class';

const { div:Div, span:Span } = dom;

window.style$ = new Rx.Subject();
window.text$ = new Rx.Subject();

class App extends React.Component {
  render() {
    console.log('App rendered.');

    return (
      <div>
        <h1>Demo</h1>
        <Div style={window.style$}>Hello</Div>
        <Span>{window.text$}</Span>
      </div>
    );
  }
}

React.render(<App />, document.getElementById('app'));

// notice that App will not re-render, nice!
window.style$.onNext({color: 'blue'});
window.text$.onNext('Reactive!');
// you can open your console and play around

Use Reactive wrapper

ES5/ES6

import {reactive} from 'react-reactive-class';

class Text extends React.Component {
  render() {
    console.log('Text rendered.');

    return (
      <div>{this.props.children}</div>
    );
  }
}

const XText = reactive(Text);

ES7

import {reactive} from 'react-reactive-class';

@reactive
class XText extends React.Component {
  render() {
    console.log('Text rendered.');

    return (
      <div>{this.props.children}</div>
    );
  }
}

Mount/unmount Reactive Component

Reactively compose components!

// Unmount this component if length of incoming text is 0.
<Span mount={ text$.map(text => text.length) }>
  {text$}
</Span>

Child component constraint

Source must be the only child when using observable as child component.

// This will not work
<Span>
  Hello {name$}, how are you?
</Span>

// This will work
<span>
  Hello <Span>{name$}</Span>, how are you?
</span>
