I was following the Facebook's react tutorial and was playing around with it. When i tried to integrate MDL with my page (from getmdl.io), its not working.
In my index.html; i have added links to their css and js files. I also installed mdl using npm.
My index.html:

In my index.jsx file, which is being converted to bundle.js by webpack:
const LikeComponent = React.createClass({
getInitialState : function (){
return {likesCount2 : this.props.likesCount};
},
getLikesCount : function (){
return {likesCount2};
},
onLike : function () {
let newLikesCount = this.state.likesCount2 + 1;
this.setState ({likesCount2 : newLikesCount});
},
componentDidUpdate: function(){
componentHandler.upgradeDom();
},
render : function(){
return (
<div>
Likes : <span>{this.state.likesCount2}</span>
<div>
{/*<RaisedButton label="Like" onClick={this.onLike}/>*/}
<button class="mdl-button mdl-js-button mdl-button--raised mdl-js-ripple-effect mdl-button--accent" onClick={this.onLike}>Like Me</button>
</div>
</div>
);
}
});
I have added the button in render function.
The output should have a material design button, but the button doesn't change.
Output right now: Button is plain HTML button
Is there anyone who can help.
In React you need to use className
instead of class
. The reason is that class
is a reserved JS word and JSX compiles to JS. It is the same with the for
attribute - you have to use htmlFor
.
I must admit that I continue to make this mistake every day. Fortunately React reports this common problem by warning in the browser console.
In short change your code to this:
<button className="mdl-button mdl-js-button mdl-button--raised mdl-js-ripple-effect mdl-button--accent" onClick={this.onLike}>Like Me</button>
