Usage
Help for different situations
Examples
Ensure the document body has an initial non-zero height, e.g.
100vh
.
import 'winbox/dist/css/winbox.min.css'; // required
import 'winbox/dist/css/themes/modern.min.css'; // optional
import 'winbox/dist/css/themes/white.min.css'; // optional
import WinBox from 'react-winbox';
<WinBox
width={this.state.boxWidth ?? 500}
height={300}
x="center"
y={30}
noClose={this.state.inEditing}
>
<div>
<h1>Hello, WinBox!</h1>
<MyComponent myProps={1} onChange={this.handleChange}/>
</div>
</WinBox>
Or you can do more one step, to make a genuine 'windows manager', just like:
// ...
// some code to maintain a list of necessary windows info...
// ...
const [windows, setWindows] = useState([]);
const handleClose = (force, id) => {
let state = [...windows];
const index = state.findIndex(info => info.id === id);
if (index === -1) return
if (state[index].onclose && state[index].onclose(force)) return true;
// window-specific onclose, returns true if it does not need the default close process.
state.splice(index, 1);
setTimeout(() => setWindows(state)); // to change winbox showing state while `onclose`, MUST wrap it within `setTimeout`
};
return (
<>
{windows.map(info => (
<WinBox
key={info.id}
id={info.id}
onClose={(force) => handleClose(force, info.id)}
{...info.neededProps} // assign any props you want to WinBox
>
<div>Some children</div>
</WinBox>
))}
</>
);
Notice
- To use WinBox, ensure the document body has an initial non-zero height, e.g. 100vh.
- To open a winbox, just create it in your virtual DOM, that's enough.
- To close a winbox, just do not render it. It's safe.
onclose
is called BEFORE the winbox goes to close process. It is easy to block a closing for some unsaved data or giving a confirmation to user to close (see the doc to get more info). However, if you do not want to block the closing, but want to destroy the React WinBox component, be sure to wrap destroying actions withinsetTimeout
so that they occur after the winbox.js DOM is truly closed, e.g.setTimeout(() => setShowWindow(false))
.- To change some properties of the winbox DOM, just change the component's properties. The properties need official methods support. We suggest that all states you want to control of the winbox should be listened for changes and keep controlled, such as
width
state withonResize
callback. But if you do not have such listeners, you can call theforceUpdate
method from refs to keep the winbox status in control as well. - If you have to operate the pure WinBox.js object manually, you can find a
winBoxObj
in the component ref. It's needed only when you want to callmount()
method.

* @return noDefaultClose - true if the winbox does not need the default close process, for example, when it needs a confirmation to close instead of being closed suddenly.

Extra Helps
Use in Next
To use react-winbox
in Next.js, there are some special steps:
- install
react-winbox
(must >= v1.5.0) into your project. - (Source) install
next-transpile-modules
, and change thenext.config.js
to:
const withTM = require('next-transpile-modules')([
'react-winbox',
]);
module.exports = withTM({
// additional webpack configurations
});
- in
_app.js
:
import 'winbox/dist/css/winbox.min.css';
import 'winbox/dist/css/themes/modern.min.css'; // optional
import 'winbox/dist/css/themes/white.min.css'; // optional
- in files you want to use
react-winbox
:
//import WinBox from 'react-winbox'; // do not use this, use below:
import dynamic from 'next/dynamic';
const WinBox = dynamic(() => import('react-winbox'), {ssr: false});
All is OK, start coding now!
Upgrade
For old versions upgrading to v1.5.x, these things deserve attention:
- All old versions have bugs in React 18+, but v1.5+ do not.
- CSS files need to be imported manually. See example 1.
- All props are camel-cased, use
onClose
instead ofonclose
. splitscreen
has been removed, some props and methods were added.
