Usage

<ReactHeight onHeightReady={height => console.log(height)}>
  <div>Random content</div>
</ReactHeight>

Options

onHeightReady: PropTypes.function.isRequired

Callback, invoked when height is measured (and when it is changed).

children: PropTypes.node.isRequired

One or multiple children with static, variable or dynamic height.

<ReactHeight onHeightReady={height => console.log(height)}>
  <p>Paragraph of text</p>
  <p>Another paragraph is also OK</p>
  <p>Images and any other content are ok too</p>
  <img src="nyancat.gif">
</ReactHeight>

hidden: PropTypes.bool (default: false)

ReactHeight can render to null as soon as height is measured.

<ReactHeight hidden={true} onHeightReady={height => console.log(height)}>
  <div>Will be removed from the DOM when height is measured</div>
</ReactHeight>

Pass-through props

All other props are applied to a container that is being measured. So it is possible to pass style or className, for example.

<ReactHeight onHeightReady={height => console.log(height)}
  style={{width: 200, border: '1px solid red'}}
  className="myComponent">

  <div>
    Wrapper around this element will have red border, 200px width
    and `class="myComponent"`
  </div>
</ReactHeight>

Development and testing

Currently is being developed and tested with the latest stable Node 5 on OSX and Windows. Should be ok with Node 4, but not guaranteed.

To run example covering all ReactHeight features, use npm start, which will compile src/example/Example.js

git clone [e-mail]:nkbt/react-height.git
cd react-height
npm install
npm start

# then
open http://localhost:8080

Tests

npm test

# to run tests in watch mode for development
npm run test:dev

# to generate test coverage (./reports/coverage)
npm run test:cov
