Example Usage
With Hooks
Hooks is a new feature available in 8.0.0!
import React from 'react'
import { useMediaQuery } from 'react-responsive'
const Example = () => {
const isDesktopOrLaptop = useMediaQuery({
query: '(min-width: 1224px)'
})
const isBigScreen = useMediaQuery({ query: '(min-width: 1824px)' })
const isTabletOrMobile = useMediaQuery({ query: '(max-width: 1224px)' })
const isPortrait = useMediaQuery({ query: '(orientation: portrait)' })
const isRetina = useMediaQuery({ query: '(min-resolution: 2dppx)' })
return <div>
<h1>Device Test!</h1>
{isDesktopOrLaptop && <p>You are a desktop or laptop</p>}
{isBigScreen && <p>You have a huge screen</p>}
{isTabletOrMobile && <p>You are a tablet or mobile phone</p>}
<p>Your are in {isPortrait ? 'portrait' : 'landscape'} orientation</p>
{isRetina && <p>You are retina</p>}
</div>
}
With Components
import MediaQuery from 'react-responsive'
const Example = () => (
<div>
<h1>Device Test!</h1>
<MediaQuery minWidth={1224}>
<p>You are a desktop or laptop</p>
<MediaQuery minWidth={1824}>
<p>You also have a huge screen</p>
</MediaQuery>
</MediaQuery>
<MediaQuery minResolution="2dppx">
{/* You can also use a function (render prop) as a child */}
{(matches) =>
matches
? <p>You are retina</p>
: <p>You are not retina</p>
}
</MediaQuery>
</div>
)
API
Using Properties
To make things more idiomatic to react, you can use camel-cased shorthands to construct media queries.
For a list of all possible shorthands and value types see https://github.com/contra/react-responsive/blob/master/src/mediaQuery.js#L9.
Any numbers given as shorthand will be expanded to px (1234
will become '1234px'
).
The CSS media queries in the example above could be constructed like this:
import React from 'react'
import { useMediaQuery } from 'react-responsive'
const Example = () => {
const isDesktopOrLaptop = useMediaQuery({ minWidth: 1224 })
const isBigScreen = useMediaQuery({ minWidth: 1824 })
const isTabletOrMobile = useMediaQuery({ maxWidth: 1224 })
const isPortrait = useMediaQuery({ orientation: 'portrait' })
const isRetina = useMediaQuery({ minResolution: '2dppx' })
return (
<div>
...
</div>
)
}
Forcing a device with the device
prop
At times you may need to render components with different device settings than what gets automatically detected. This is especially useful in a Node environment where these settings can't be detected (SSR) or for testing.
Possible Keys
orientation
, scan
, aspectRatio
, deviceAspectRatio
,
height
, deviceHeight
, width
, deviceWidth
, color
, colorIndex
, monochrome
,
resolution
and type
Possible Types
type
can be one of: all
, grid
, aural
, braille
, handheld
, print
, projection
,
screen
, tty
, tv
or embossed
Note: The device
property always applies, even when it can be detected (where window.matchMedia exists).
import { useMediaQuery } from 'react-responsive'
const Example = () => {
const isDesktopOrLaptop = useMediaQuery(
{ minDeviceWidth: 1224 },
{ deviceWidth: 1600 }
)
return (
<div>
{isDesktopOrLaptop &&
<p>
this will always get rendered even if device is shorter than 1224px,
that's because we overrode device settings with 'deviceWidth: 1600'.
</p>
}
</div>
)
}
Supplying through Context
You can also pass device
to every useMediaQuery
hook in the components tree through a React Context.
This should ease up server-side-rendering and testing in a Node environment, e.g:
Server-Side Rendering
import { Context as ResponsiveContext } from 'react-responsive'
import { renderToString } from 'react-dom/server'
import App from './App'
...
const mobileApp = renderToString(
<ResponsiveContext.Provider value={{ width: 500 }}>
<App />
</ResponsiveContext.Provider>
)
...
Testing
import { Context as ResponsiveContext } from 'react-responsive'
import { render } from '@testing-library/react'
import ProductsListing from './ProductsListing'
describe('ProductsListing', () => {
test('matches the snapshot', () => {
const { container: mobile } = render(
<ResponsiveContext.Provider value={{ width: 300 }}>
<ProductsListing />
</ResponsiveContext.Provider>
)
expect(mobile).toMatchSnapshot()
const { container: desktop } = render(
<ResponsiveContext.Provider value={{ width: 1000 }}>
<ProductsListing />
</ResponsiveContext.Provider>
)
expect(desktop).toMatchSnapshot()
})
})
Note that if anything has a device
prop passed in it will take precedence over the one from context.
onChange
You can use the onChange
callback to specify a change handler that will be called when the media query's value changes.
import React from 'react'
import { useMediaQuery } from 'react-responsive'
const Example = () => {
const handleMediaQueryChange = (matches) => {
}
const isDesktopOrLaptop = useMediaQuery(
{ minWidth: 1224 }, undefined, handleMediaQueryChange
);
return (
<div>
...
</div>
)
}
import React from 'react'
import MediaQuery from 'react-responsive'
const Example = () => {
const handleMediaQueryChange = (matches) => {
}
return (
<MediaQuery minWidth={1224} onChange={handleMediaQueryChange}>
...
</MediaQuery>
)
}
Easy Mode
That's it! Now you can create your application specific breakpoints and reuse them easily. Here is an example:
import { useMediaQuery } from 'react-responsive'
const Desktop = ({ children }) => {
const isDesktop = useMediaQuery({ minWidth: 992 })
return isDesktop ? children : null
}
const Tablet = ({ children }) => {
const isTablet = useMediaQuery({ minWidth: 768, maxWidth: 991 })
return isTablet ? children : null
}
const Mobile = ({ children }) => {
const isMobile = useMediaQuery({ maxWidth: 767 })
return isMobile ? children : null
}
const Default = ({ children }) => {
const isNotMobile = useMediaQuery({ minWidth: 768 })
return isNotMobile ? children : null
}
const Example = () => (
<div>
<Desktop>Desktop or laptop</Desktop>
<Tablet>Tablet</Tablet>
<Mobile>Mobile</Mobile>
<Default>Not mobile (desktop or laptop or tablet)</Default>
</div>
)
export default Example
And if you want a combo (the DRY way):
import { useMediaQuery } from "react-responsive"
const useDesktopMediaQuery = () =>
useMediaQuery({ query: "(min-width: 1280px)" })
const useTabletAndBelowMediaQuery = () =>
useMediaQuery({ query: "(max-width: 1279px)" })
const Desktop = ({ children }) => {
const isDesktop = useDesktopMediaQuery()
return isDesktop ? children : null
}
const TabletAndBelow = ({ children }) => {
const isTabletAndBelow = useTabletAndBelowMediaQuery()
return isTabletAndBelow ? children : null
}
