I. About

II. Structure

1. Components Structure

  App
   |___ Summary
   |___ Form _ _ _ _ RecordsAPI
   |                    |
   |___ Table           |
           |_______ TableRow
                        |____ TableDisplay
                        |____ TableEdit
  • App Component: is the data hub
    • state: records for entries in Table component
    • state: isLoaded show loading info, before showing Table
    • state: error
    • method: componentDidMount() get data from database
    • method: addRecord() passed to Form
    • method: deleteRecord() passed to Table and TableRow
    • method: updateRecord() passed to Table and TableRow
    • method: credits() passed to Summary
    • method: debits() passed to Summary
    • method: balance() passed to Summary
  • Summary Component: displays negative/ positive summation for the records
  • Form Component: add record into records, updating Table
  • Table Component: just pass records to TableRow
  • TableRow Component: display each record in records
  • RecordsAPI: utility providing interface to make RESTful API call

2. File Structure

|__node_modules
|
|__public  
|    |___ index.html
|
|__ src
     |___ utils: RecordsAPI.js
     |
     |___ components:
              |___ App.js
              |___ Form.js
              |___ Summary.js
              |___ Table.js
              |___ TableRow.js

III. Ajax request

Several Ways:

  1. Ajax Libraries

    • Axios
      • axios.get(url[, config])
      • axios.delete(url[, config])
      • axios.head(url[, config])
      • axios.options(url[, config])
      • axios.post(url[, data[, config]])
      • axios.put(url[, data[, config]])
    • jQuery AJAX

  2. Browser built-in window.fetch

    No need to prepend "window" before fetch(): default obj

## No need to prepend "window" before fetch, this is the default obj

  fetch('http://example.com/movies.json')
    .then(function(response) {
      return response.json();
    })
    .then(function(myJson) {
      console.log(myJson);
    });

When and where to initiate Ajax call?

Do it in componentDidMount lifecycle method. So you can use setState to update your component when the data is retrieved.

  componentDidMount() {
    fetch("https://api.example.com/items")
      .then(res => res.json())
      .then(
        (result) => {
          this.setState({
            isLoaded: true,
            items: result.items
          });
        },
        // Note: it's important to handle errors here
        // instead of a catch() block so that we don't swallow
        // exceptions from actual bugs in components.
        (error) => {
          this.setState({
            isLoaded: true,
            error
          });
        }
      )
  }

IV. Concept

1. 组件数据流: Model -> View

  • 父组件M -> 子组件V

    • 父组件prop 之间传给 子组件 prop

  • 子组件M -> 父组件V

    • 回调函数   + 父组件向子组件传递回调函数   + JS中，function是一等公民，因此传入的值会作为自身field保存起来；与C／Java不同。

  • sibling 组件间传值 M->V

    • 必须依靠二者共同父组件来传递
    • 但等组件之间的关系越来越复杂时候，这种依靠父组件作为中间人传值方式 would be a mess！
    • Redux comes into picture

2. 双向绑定: Model <-> View

  • 通过绑定<input>的 onChange() 监视 View的变换
  • 在 onChange Handler中更新组件的值，完成 View => Model 的数据流。

3. React 生命周期

  • Mount
    • constructor()
    • componentWillMount()
    • render()
    • componentDidMount()
  • Update
    • componentWillReceiveProps(): 将接收新的props
    • shouldComponentUpdate(): 是否应该被更新？
    • componentWillUpdate(): 组件即将更新
    • render(): 组件被渲染
    • componentDidUpdate(): 组件完成更新
  • Unmount
    • componentWillUnmount(): 组件被卸载前做一些数据清除
