react-router-cache-route v1.13.0
CacheRoute
English | 中文说明
Route with cache for react-router
like keep-alive
in Vue.
If you want <KeepAlive />
only, try react-activation
React v15+
React-Router v4+
Problem Scenarios
Using Route
, component can not be cached while going forward or back which lead to losing data and interaction
Reason & Solution
Component would be unmounted when Route
was unmatched
After reading source code of Route
we found that using children
prop as a function could help to control rendering behavior.
Hiding instead of Removing would fix this issue.
Install
npm install react-router-cache-route --save
# or
yarn add react-router-cache-route
Usage
Replace Route
with CacheRoute
Replace Switch
with CacheSwitch
(Because Switch
only keeps the first matching state route and unmount the others)
import React from 'react'
import { HashRouter as Router, Route } from 'react-router-dom'
import CacheRoute, { CacheSwitch } from 'react-router-cache-route'
import List from './views/List'
import Item from './views/Item'
const App = () => (
<Router>
<CacheSwitch>
<CacheRoute exact path="/list" component={List} />
<Route exact path="/item/:id" component={Item} />
<Route render={() => <div>404 Not Found</div>} />
</CacheSwitch>
</Router>
)
export default App
CacheRoute props
name | type | default | description |
---|---|---|---|
when | String / Function | "forward" | Decide when to cache |
className | String | - | className prop for the wrapper component |
behavior | Function | cached => cached ? { style: { display: "none" }} : undefined | Return props effective on the wrapper component to control rendering behavior |
cacheKey | String / Function | - | For imperative control caching |
multiple (React v16.2+) | Boolean / Number | false | Allows different caches to be distinguished by dynamic routing parameters. When the value is a number, it indicates the maximum number of caches. When the maximum value is exceeded, the oldest updated cache will be cleared. |
unmount (UNSTABLE) | Boolean | false | Whether to unmount the real dom node after cached, to save performance (Will cause losing the scroll position after recovered, fixed with saveScrollPosition props) |
saveScrollPosition (UNSTABLE) | Boolean | false | Save scroll position |
CacheRoute
is only a wrapper component that works based on the children
property of Route
, and does not affect the functionality of Route
itself.
For the rest of the properties, please refer to https://reacttraining.com/react-router/
About when
The following values can be taken when the type is String
- forward Cache when forward behavior occurs, corresponding to the
PUSH
orREPLACE
action in react-router - back Cache when back behavior occurs, corresponding to the
POP
action in react-router - always Always cache routes when leave, no matter forward or backward
When the type is Function
, the component's props
will be accepted as the first argument, return true/false
to determine whether to cache.
CacheSwitch props
name | type | default | description |
---|---|---|---|
which | Function | element => element.type === CacheRoute | <CacheSwitch> only saves the first layer of nodes which type is CacheRoute by default, which prop is a function that would receive a instance of React Component, return true/false to decide if <CacheSwitch> need to save it, reference #55 |
Lifecycles
Hooks
use useDidCache
and useDidRecover
to inject customer Lifecycle didCache
and didRecover
import { useDidCache, useDidRecover } from 'react-router-cache-route'
export default function List() {
useDidCache(() => {
console.log('List cached 1')
})
// support multiple effect
useDidCache(() => {
console.log('List cached 2')
})
useDidRecover(() => {
console.log('List recovered')
})
return (
// ...
)
}
Class Component
Component with CacheRoute will accept one prop named cacheLifecycles
which contains two functions to inject customer Lifecycle didCache
and didRecover
import React, { Component } from 'react'
export default class List extends Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props)
props.cacheLifecycles.didCache(this.componentDidCache)
props.cacheLifecycles.didRecover(this.componentDidRecover)
}
componentDidCache = () => {
console.log('List cached')
}
componentDidRecover = () => {
console.log('List recovered')
}
render() {
return (
// ...
)
}
}
Drop cache
You can manually control the cache with cacheKey
prop and dropByCacheKey
function.
import CacheRoute, { dropByCacheKey, getCachingKeys } from 'react-router-cache-route'
...
<CacheRoute ... cacheKey="MyComponent" />
...
console.log(getCachingKeys()) // will receive ['MyComponent'] if CacheRoute is cached which `cacheKey` prop is 'MyComponent'
...
dropByCacheKey('MyComponent')
...
Clear cache
You can clear cache with clearCache
function.
import { clearCache } from 'react-router-cache-route'
clearCache()
