on-el-resize

on-el-resize - on HTML element resize event helper

on-el-resize is a simple helper which provides an API for attaching resize event firing to HTML elements.

This can simplify creation of some dynamic and responsive components which styles and structure depend on absolute width and height values.

Install

npm install on-el-resize # or yarn add on-el-resize

Usage

TypeScript / JavaScript

import { Resize } from 'on-el-resize';

const resize = new Resize();
const element = document.querySelector('.selector');

const resizeHandler = () => {
  console.log({
    width: element.offsetWidth,
    heigth: element.offsetHeight
  });
};

// Attach event
resize.addResizeListener(element, resizeHandler);

// Detach event
resize.removeResizeListener(element, resizeHandler);

React component sample

import * as React from 'react';
import { Resize } from 'on-el-resize';

export interface IProps {}

export interface IState {
  componentWidth?: number;
  componentHeight?: number;
}

export class Example extends React.Component<IProps, IState> {

  private parentRef: HTMLElement;
  private resize: Resize;

  constructor(props: IProps) {
    super(props);
    this.resize = new Resize();
    this.state = {};
    this.onComponentResize = this.onComponentResize.bind(this);
  }

  public render() {
    return (
      <div ref={el => this.parentRef = el}>
        <div>Width: {this.state.componentWidth}</div>
        <div>Height: {this.state.componentHeight}</div>
      </div>
    );
  }

  public componentDidMount() {
    this.resize.addResizeListener(this.parentRef, this.onComponentResize);
    this.onComponentResize();
  }

  public componentWillUnmount() {
    this.resize.removeResizeListener(this.parentRef, this.onComponentResize);
  }

  private onComponentResize() {
    this.setState({
      componentWidth: this.parentRef.offsetWidth,
      componentHeight: this.parentRef.offsetHeight
    });
  }

}

React declarative approach

Component is in draft status

import * as React from 'react';

import { Resizable } from 'on-el-resize/lib/components';

export default class Example extends React.Component<{}, {}> {

  public render() {
    return (
      <Resizable render={({ width }) => <div>Width: {width}</div>} />
    );
  }

}
