This question related to dynamically importing JSX files into React.
Basically we have one main component that dynamically renders other components based on a structure stored in a database. The dynamic components are stored in a subdirectory "./Components". We statically define the this as:
import CompA from './Components/CompA';
import CompB from './Components/CompB';
var components = {
'CompA': CompA,
'CompB': CompB
}
and we render them using:
var type = 'CompA'
var Component = components[type];
...
<Component />
While this works fine, it is a bit too static for us. We have 100+ components (CompA/CompBs) and statically define them does not work.
Is it possible to import all JSX files in "./Compontents" and populate the components-array?
And, what would be really (really) nice would be if we could send the "./Components" path as a prop to the main components. And the main component would use this path to import the .jsx files. Like this:
<MainComponent ComponentPath="./SystemComponents">
Would use "./SystemComponents" as path for .JSX files and:
<MainComponent ComponentPath="./UserComponents">
Would use "./UserComponents" as import path.
What about having a components/index.js with contents:
export CompA from "./comp_a";
export CompB from "./comp_b";
Then you do:
import * as Components from "./components"
then you would use as:
<Components.CompA />
<Components.CompB />
...
Hope this helps.
I doubt you can load anything when sending path through component props, loading of the file should then happen inside the React component lifecycle methods which is not something I would recommend.
As of React 16.6.0, we can lazy-load components and invoke them on-demand.
The Routing
// We pass the name of the component to load as a param
<Switch>
…
<Route path="/somewhere/:componentName" component={MyDynamicComponent} />
</Switch>
views/index.js
import { lazy } from 'react';
const SomeView = lazy(() => import('./SomeView'));
const SomeOtherView = lazy(() => import('./SomeOtherView'));
export { SomeView, SomeOtherView };
MyDynamicComponent.js
import React, { Suspense, Component } from 'react';
import { PropTypes } from 'prop-types';
import shortid from 'shortid'; // installed separately via NPM
import * as Views from './views';
class MyDynamicComponent extends Component {
render() {
const {
match: {
params: { componentName },
},
} = this.props;
const Empty = () => <div>This component does not exist.</div>;
const dynamicComponent = (() => {
const MyComponent = Views[`${componentName}View`]
? Views[`${componentName}View`]
: Empty;
return <MyComponent key={shortid.generate()} />;
})();
return (
<>
<Suspense fallback={<div>Loading…</div>}>{dynamicComponent}</Suspense>
</>
);
}
}
MyDynamicComponent.propTypes = {
match: PropTypes.shape({
params: PropTypes.shape({
componentName: PropTypes.string.isRequired,
}),
}),
};
export default MyDynamicComponent;
Usage
{items.map(item => (
<NavLink to={`/somewhere/${item.componentName}`}>
{item.name}
</NavLink>
))}
To complement #gor181's answer, I can add that exports must be this way:
export { default as CompA } from "./comp_a";
export { default as CompB } from "./comp_b";
Hope this might be helpful.

Can someone help me to find a nice solution for my react routing architecture?
I have defined a decorator which i use on my class components to define, which components are pages and behind which route to render them. This works very well, but i still have to import my page components to have my decorator being executed to fill a list of routes which i use to render my routes inside my App component.
Does anybody know a way to configure webpack to check my src dir for Components like **/*Page.tsx and import them automaticly?
For more visual:
import React from 'react';
import { ThemeProvider } from 'styled-components';
import { BrowserRouter, Route, Routes } from 'react-router-dom';
import { useTheme } from '#core/styled';
import { useRoutes } from '#core/navigation';
// I want to get rude of this imports
import '#features/test-a/pages/HomePage';
import '#features/test-b/pages/TestPage';
// /
export const App: React.FC = () => {
const theme = useTheme();
const routes = useRoutes();
return (
<BrowserRouter>
<ThemeProvider theme={theme}>
<Routes>
{Object.keys(routes).map((path) => {
const { element, options = {} } = routes[path];
const Component = element as Function;
return <Route key={`route#${path}`} path={path} {...options} element={<Component />} />;
})}
</Routes>
</ThemeProvider>
</BrowserRouter>
);
};
My decorator:
export function Route(path: string, options?: RouteOptions) {
return (target: typeof React.Component) => {
setRoute(path, {
options,
element: target
});
};
}
Example page component:
import React from 'react';
import { Route } from '#core/navigation/Route';
#Route('/')
export class HomePage extends React.Component<any, any> {
render() {
return <h1>Hallo Welt</h1>;
}
}
FYI: I am using craco in this project so i have access to the webpack configuration.
I'm trying to load a details view based on a react-router-dom route that should grab the URL parameter (id) and use that to further populate the component.
My route looks like /task/:id and my component loads fine, until I try to grab the :id from the URL like so:
import React from "react";
import { useParams } from "react-router-dom";
class TaskDetail extends React.Component {
componentDidMount() {
let { id } = useParams();
this.fetchData(id);
}
fetchData = id => {
// ...
};
render() {
return <div>Yo</div>;
}
}
export default TaskDetail;
This triggers the following error and I'm unsure where to correctly implement useParams().
Error: Invalid hook call. Hooks can only be called inside of the body of a function component.
The docs only show examples based on functional components, not class based.
Version <= 5:
You can use withRouter to accomplish this. Simply wrap your exported classed component inside of withRouter and then you can use this.props.match.params.id to get the parameters instead of using useParams(). You can also get any location, match, or history info by using withRouter. They are all passed in under this.props
Using your example it would look like this:
import React from "react";
import { withRouter } from "react-router";
class TaskDetail extends React.Component {
componentDidMount() {
const id = this.props.match.params.id;
this.fetchData(id);
}
fetchData = id => {
// ...
};
render() {
return <div>Yo</div>;
}
}
export default withRouter(TaskDetail);
Simple as that!
import React, { Component } from "react";
import { useParams } from "react-router-dom";
function withParams(Component) {
return props => <Component {...props} params={useParams()} />;
}
class TaskDetail extends React.Component {
componentDidMount() {
let { id } = this.props.params;
this.fetchData(id);
}
fetchData = id => {
// ...
};
render() {
return <div>Yo</div>;
}
}
export default withParams(TaskDetail);
Since hooks wont work with class based components you can wrap it in a function and pass the properties along:
class TaskDetail extends React.Component {
componentDidMount() {
const { id } = this.props.params;
// ...
}
}
export default (props) => (
<TaskDetail
{...props}
params={useParams()}
/>
);
But, like #michael-mayo said, I expect this is what withRouter is already performing.
Params get passed down through props on the match object.
props.match.params.yourParams
source: https://redux.js.org/advanced/usage-with-react-router
Here is an example from the docs destructing the props in the arguments.
const App = ({ match: { params } }) => {
return (
<div>
<AddTodo />
<VisibleTodoList filter={params.filter || 'SHOW_ALL'} />
<Footer />
</div>
)
}
You can not call a hook such as "useParams()" from a React.Component.
Easiest way if you want to use hooks and have an existing react.component is to create a function then call the React.Component from that function and pass the parameter.
import React from 'react';
import useParams from "react-router-dom";
import TaskDetail from './TaskDetail';
function GetId() {
const { id } = useParams();
console.log(id);
return (
<div>
<TaskDetail taskId={id} />
</div>
);
}
export default GetId;
Your switch route will still be something like
<Switch>
<Route path="/task/:id" component={GetId} />
</Switch>
then you will be able to get the id from from the props in your react component
this.props.taskId
In react-router-dom-v6 you can easily use useParams() in functional components but when it gets to the class component you have to create HOC (higher-order component) because hooks don't support class components:
import { useNavigate, useParams } from "react-router-dom";
export const withRouter = (WrappedComponent) => (props) => {
const params = useParams();
const navigate = useNavigate();
return <WrappedComponent {...props} params={params} navigate={navigate} />;
};
Then export your component from your HOC and give your component as a parameter. like below:
export default withRouter(YourComponentName);
After that you can easily access the url id with this.props.params.id and you can navigate to other components with this.props.navigate("/YourPath")
React Route v5
Query params can be read and processed as JSON using withRouter and queryString as follow:
import React from "react";
import { withRouter } from "react-router";
import queryString from 'query-string';
class MyComponent extends React.Component {
componentDidMount() {
const params = queryString.parse(this.props.location.search);
console.log('Do something with it', params);
}
render() {
return <div>Hi!</div>;
}
}
export default withRouter(MyComponent);

*/
function withRouter(Component) {
function ComponentWithRouter(props) {
let params = useParams()
return <Component {...props} params={params} />
}
return ComponentWithRouter
}

My friends, I tried to use in class but I failed to find any doc about it. So after many hours of searching and trying hard this is (in function). Now (i.e when I'm writing this post) there is only limited resource about v6. But there are many for <v6.
Here I'm using useState,useEffect,useParams,axios.
import React, { useState, useEffect } from 'react';
import { useParams } from 'react-router-dom';
import axios from 'axios';
const Post = () => {
let { post_id } = useParams();
const [posts, setPosts] = useState({ post: null, countSecrets: 0, ui: '' });
useEffect(() => {
if (posts.countSecrets === 0) {
const doAxe = (a) => {
axios.get('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts/' + post_id)
.then((res) => {
setPosts(s => ({ ...s, value: res.data }));
doUI(res.data)
// console.log(res.data)
});
}
setPosts(s => ({ ...s, countSecrets: s.countSecrets + 1 }));
doAxe()
}
}, [posts, post_id]);
let doUI = (x) => {
// console.log('x' + x.title)
const finalPost = (x !== null) ? (
<div className="post">
<h4 className="center">{x.title}</h4>
<p>{x.body}</p>
</div>
) : (
<div className="center">Loading posts...</div>
);
setPosts(s => ({ ...s, ui: finalPost }));
}
return (
<div className="container">
{posts.ui}
</div>
);
}
export default Post;
NOTE:
I faced useEffect looping. I prevented it with a key.
HOPE: This may help someone!

In react-router-dom v6, there is no hook such as withRouter therefore my advice to you is to convert your class-based component to a functional component to use useParams hook in your component otherwise you can create a higher-order component to pass your class-based component.
as you know the useParams() is a hook for react-router-dom.
you can not use this inside the componentDidMount() or useEffect() because both of them are method that called during the Mounting phase of the React Life-cycle i.e after the component is rendered.
you have a solution:
create or define another function outside the componentDidMount() to define useParams then call it inside the componentDidMount.
know every thing will be ok.
This is my working example. :)
import React, { Component } from "react";
import { useParams } from "react-router-dom";
function withParams(Component) {
return (props) => <Component {...props} params={useParams()} />;
}
class ProductDetails extends Component {
handleSave = () => {
// Navigate to /products
};
render() {
return (
<div>
<h1>Product Details - {this.props.params.id}</h1>
<button onClick={this.handleSave}>Save</button>
</div>
);
}
}
export default withParams(ProductDetails);
Hooks only work on functional components,
you have to make that ocmponent a functional component
Fixed by creating a wrapping function
I needed to pass params to my SaxjaxApp.js from index.js using react-router-dom v6.
In v6 Switch has been changed to Routes
I got the useParams working with a class component by following Mohamed MAZEK's idea in post 20 using a wrapping function.
I needed to access the sessionId part of the url when it was available.
ie in localhost:3000/shared/123XYZId
I needed the 123XYZId part.
make note of this line : <Route path="/shared/:sessionId" element={<SaxjaxAppWrapper />} /> in the index.js below.
:sessionId denotes that useParams has a property called sessionId, that can be accessed by:
const {sessionId} = useParams() from a functional component.
In my index.js file I did this:
import React from "react";
import ReactDOM from "react-dom/client";
import { BrowserRouter, Route, Routes } from "react-router-dom";
import "./styles/style.scss";
import SaxjaxAppWrapper from "SaxjaxAppWrapper";
import SaxjaxApp from "./SaxjaxApp";
const container = document.getElementById("root");
const root = ReactDOM.createRoot(container);
//INFO: to learn about react-roue-dom v6 https://reactrouter.com/en/v6.3.0/upgrading/v5
root.render(
// <React.StrictMode>
<BrowserRouter>
<Routes>
<Route path="/shared/:sessionId" element={<SaxjaxAppWrapper />} />
<Route path="/" element={<SaxjaxApp />} />
</Routes>
</BrowserRouter>
// </React.StrictMode>
);
This line <Route path="/shared/:sessionId" element={<SaxjaxAppWrapper />} /> calls my wrapping function, whereas the default path / just calls the class component.
I had to create a separate file to hold the wrapping function I don't know why:
import React from "react";
import { useParams } from "react-router-dom";
import SaxjaxApp from "SaxjaxApp";
function SaxjaxAppWrapper() {
//I use the params here and store them to pass as props
let { sessionId } = useParams();
return (
//I pass the sessionId from the url params as a prop to my SaxjaxApp class component here
<SaxjaxApp sessionId={sessionId} />
);
}
export default SaxjaxAppWrapper;
My class component:
import React, { Component } from "react";
import "./styles/style.scss";
class SaxjaxApp extends Component {
state = {
octave: 4,
};
constructor(props) {
super(props);
//... initialise stuff
}
//... a lot of methods
render() {
//Access the param here
const { sessionId } = this.props;
<>
<div>
keybordId={sessionId ? sessionId : "no id was passed"}
</div>
</>
);
}
}
export default SaxjaxApp;
I'm trying to load a details view based on a react-router-dom route that should grab the URL parameter (id) and use that to further populate the component.
My route looks like /task/:id and my component loads fine, until I try to grab the :id from the URL like so:
import React from "react";

I'm trying to test my React components using Mobx stores with Jest and React-testing-library.
The problem is that I have no clues on how to inject my stores for the test.
Here is my simplified codes.
StaffInfo.js(component)
import React, { useState } from "react";
import { observer, inject } from "mobx-react";
const StaffInfo = props => {
const store = props.instituteStore;
const [staffs, setStaffs] = useState(store.staffs);
return (
<div>
....
</div>
);
}
export default inject(rootStore => ({
instituteStore : rootStore.instituteStore
}))(observer(StaffInfo));
index.js(Root store)
import LoginStore from "./LoginStore";
import InstituteStore from "./InstituteStore";
class RootStore {
constructor(){
this.loginStore = new LoginStore (this);
this.instituteStore = new InstituteStore(this);
}
}
export default RootStore;
InstituteStore.js(target store)
import { observable, action } from "mobx";
class InstituteStore {
constructor(root){
this.root = root;
}
#observable
staffs = [];
}
export default InstituteStore;
StaffInfo.test.js(test file)
import React from "react";
import ReactDom from "react-dom";
import { MemoryRouter } from "react-router-dom";
import { Provider } from "mobx-react";
import StaffInfo from "./StaffInfo";
import InstituteStore from "../stores/InstituteStore";
describe("Staff Component testing", () => {
test("should be rendered without crashing", () => {
const div = document.createElement("div");
ReactDOM.render(
<MemoryRouter initialEntries={["/staff"]}>
<StaffInfo instituteStore={RootStore.instituteStore} />
</MemoryRouter>,
div
);
ReactDOM.unmountComponentAtNode(div);
});
});
As soon as running this test file, the error messages are like :
TypeError : Cannot read property 'staffs' of undefined
Please tell me which parts of the codes are wrong.
Thanks so much in advance!
Mobx-react's Inject is used to insert stores to the deep child component. These stars are provided by the context-based API Provider.
so wherever you are providing the stores to the child components use something like.
import rootStore from 'path_to_rootStore'
<Provider rootStore={rootStore}>
...
...
<App/>
...
...
<.Provider>
Thanks to #uneet7:
Legend! Finally someone gave a sensible answer :D
This is what My component looks like and
#inject('routing', 'navigationStore')
#observer
export default class PageTitle extends React.Component<*> {...}
And this is how I made it work:
let view = mount(
<Provider {...getStores()}>
<UserPage notificationStore={notificationStore} routing={routing} />
</Provider>
);
So the UserPage has components (many) and one of those components has PageTitle component. Obviously PageTitle has the #inject on it. It doesn't matter, as Provider HOC will provide stores via inject function to the component props.
I need to add components by rendering it in react:
<componentName ..... />
However, the name of component is not known and coming from a variable.
How I can render that?
You will need to store references to the dynamic components:
import ComponentName from 'component-name'
class App extends Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props)
this.components = {
'dynamic-component': ComponentName
}
}
render() {
// notice capitalization of the variable - this is important!
const Name = this.components[this.props.componentName];
return (
<div>
<Name />
</div>
)
}
};
render(<App componentName={ 'dynamic-component' } />, document.getElementById('root'));
See the react docs for more info.
You can create a file that exports all the different components
// Components.js
export Foo from './Foo'
export Bar from './Bar'
then import them all
import * as Components from './Components'
then you can dynamically create them based on a variable/prop:
render() {
// this.props.type = 'Foo'
// renders a Foo component
const Component = Components[this.props.type];
return Component && <Component />;
}
Okay, for me this worked:
import {Hello} from 'ui-hello-world';
let components = {};
components['Hello'] = Hello;
export default components;
and then in my class:
import customComps from '.....json';
....
let Component = Custom.default[customComps.componentName];
return (
<Component
