I'm trying to find the proper way to define some components which could be used in a generic way:
<Parent>
<Child value="1">
<Child value="2">
</Parent>
There is a logic going on for rendering between parent and children components of course, you can imagine <select> and <option> as an example of this logic.
This is a dummy implementation for the purpose of the question:
var Parent = React.createClass({
doSomething: function(value) {
},
render: function() {
return (<div>{this.props.children}</div>);
}
});
var Child = React.createClass({
onClick: function() {
this.props.doSomething(this.props.value); // doSomething is undefined
},
render: function() {
return (<div onClick={this.onClick}></div>);
}
});
The question is whenever you use {this.props.children} to define a wrapper component, how do you pass down some property to all its children?
