Package Exports
- react-measure
This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (react-measure) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.
Readme
React Measure
Compute measurements of React components. Uses a MutationObserver to detect changes of an element and return the new measurements after that mutation.
Install
npm install react-measure --save
bower install react-measure --save
Example Usage
import Measure from 'react-measure';
class ItemToMeasure extends Component {
state = {
dimensions: {}
}
render() {
const { height } = this.state.dimensions
return(
<Measure
whitelist={['height']}
shouldMeasure={(mutations) => {
// don't update unless we have mutations available
if(mutations) {
return mutations[0].target
} else {
return false
}
}}
// notice how target gets passed into onMeasure now
onMeasure={(dimensions, mutations, target) => {
this.setState({dimensions})
}}
>
<div>
I can do cool things with my dimensions now :D
</div>
</Measure>
)
}
}
Props
config
: PropTypes.object
Accepts a MutationObserver configuration.
accurate
: PropTypes.bool
Tries to give the most accurate measure. Currently only works with height. Measures the content rather than the actual box of the element.
whitelist
: PropTypes.array
Provide a list of properties to fire a callback for. Accepts any of the following properties ['width', 'height', 'top', 'right', 'bottom', 'left']
blacklist
: PropTypes.array
Like above, but will not fire a callback for the specified properties.
shouldMeasure
: PropTypes.func
Determines whether or not a measurement should occur. Return true
, false
or a value you want returned in onMeasure
.
onMeasure
: PropTypes.func
Callback when the component has been mutated. Receives dimensions
, mutations
, and anything passed to shouldMeasure
.
Good to knows
To help avoid layout thrashing, use the prop blacklist
to ignore specific values and stop firing a render to check the DOM for changes. Likewise you can use whitelist
to choose only the ones you need to check.
Margins from hell. If your element is not calculating width or height properly it could be due to a margin hanging outside of its container. To get a true measurement, make sure to not have any hanging margins, in some cases a padding of 1px added to the container will fix this. See the stack overflow answers here for more tricks .
Browser Support
All modern browsers supported. IE 9 & 10 support with a MutationObserver polyfill. I recommend this one
