              "sha256": "df4eeb09df18d02d7fa49534a2cd6a03587d361f17aa7596d8ed7c025c5cb4d4"
            },
            "picture": {
              "large": "https://randomuser.me/api/portraits/men/21.jpg",
              "thumbnail": "https://randomuser.me/api/portraits/thumb/men/21.jpg"
            },
            "nat": "US"
        }
    ]

    module.exports = Data;

This is my PeopleList.jsx. Both files are in the same directory.

Click to copy

var React = require('react');
var Data = require('people');

var PeopleList = React.createClass({
    render: function () {
        return (
            <div>
              <ul>

              </ul>
            </div>
        );
    }
});

module.exports = PeopleList;

Can anyone tell me how to render both names (Ruben and Daniel) from the people.js file into the screen (within the unordered list)? Please provide code.

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

This should do it:

Click to copy

<ul>
    {Data.map(x => <li>{x.name.first}</li>)}
</ul>

Answer 2

You can do it using ES6 like this.

Click to copy

import {Data} from './path/to/people.json'

Then map over it.

Click to copy

Dara.map(person => console.log(person.name))
