Conditional Rendering: Element Variables
function LoginButton(props) {
return (
<button onClick={props.onClick}>
Login
</button>
);
}
function LogoutButton(props) {
return (
<button onClick={props.onClick}>
Logout
</button>
);
}
class LoginControl extends React.Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props);
this.handleLoginClick = this.handleLoginClick.bind(this);
this.handleLogoutClick = this.handleLogoutClick.bind(this);
this.state = {isLoggedIn: false};
}
handleLoginClick() {
this.setState({isLoggedIn: true});
}
handleLogoutClick() {
this.setState({isLoggedIn: false});
}
render() {
const isLoggedIn = this.state.isLoggedIn;
let button;
if (isLoggedIn) {
button = <LogoutButton onClick={this.handleLogoutClick} />;
} else {
button = <LoginButton onClick={this.handleLoginClick} />;
}
return (
<div>
<Greeting isLoggedIn={isLoggedIn} />
{button}
</div>
);
}
}
ReactDOM.render(
<LoginControl />,
document.getElementById('root')
); You can use variables to store elements.
This can help you conditionally render a part of the component while the rest of the output doesn’t change.
