I have some components like below:
Wrapper: wrap Loader and Page
Loader: some animation
Page: page content
code like this:
<body>
<div id="app"></div>
</body>
class Loader extends Component {}
class Page extends Component {}
class Wrapper extends Component {
render() {
return (
<Loader/>
<Page />
);
}
}
ReactDOM.render(<Wrapper />, document.getElementById('app'));
I want hide Loader and show Page component after DOM has compeletely loaded.
How should I write dom ready event in React?
like jQuery: $(window).on('ready')
Answer
TL;DR If I understand correctly, the answer is probably "not possible". But there is another solution...
Here's what I think you're trying to do, described as a series of steps:
page starts loading,
<Loader />component shows a "page loading" animationpage finishes loading,
<Loader />component is removed (or hidden) and<Page />component is inserted (or shown) with the "real" page content.
Here's the problem: remember that you inject your React components into the page like this:
ReactDOM.render(<Wrapper />, document.getElementById('app'));
You can't actually inject a React component until the DOM is loaded. So by that time, either <Loader /> appears for about 2 milliseconds and disappears, or it doesn't appear at all (since the DOM is already loaded by the time it gets injected into the page).
If you're trying to show a throbber or other simple animation (like an animated GIF), I'd try a hybrid approach:
Set up your HTML like this:
<body>
<div id="app"><img src="throbber.gif" /></div>
</body>
In your script tag, include a JQuery "document ready" event handler to load the React component:
class Page extends Component {}
class Wrapper extends Component {
render() {
return (
<Page />
);
}
}
$(document).ready(function () {
ReactDOM.render(<Wrapper />, document.getElementById('app'));
});
Notice that I've left out the <Loader /> - the throbber image is doing the work of the loader.
The idea here is that while the page is loading, the throbber GIF will be throbbing away until the DOM is loaded, at which point JQuery's document ready event will fire & the contents of the div#app will be replaced.
I haven't tried this, but it should work, provided that React actually replaces the content of div#app, rather than just appending stuff to it. If that's not the case, then it's a simple matter of changing the document ready handler to something like this:
$(document).ready(function () {
$('div#app img').remove();
ReactDOM.render(<Wrapper />, document.getElementById('app'));
});
