Matching strings to components React











up vote

I'm making a Calendar which consists of an header and calendar. The header is for picking the type of calendar; weekly or monthly.



I had to make a dummy component called CalendarPicker just so I can use a switch. Inline switch is what I think needed but jsx doesn't accept it.



Is there a better way to do this? Or another way to match strings to components?



 <CalendarController
render={({ type, onTypeClick }) => (
<>
<header>
<p>header of agenda</p>
<button onClick={onTypeClick("weekly")}>weekly</button>
<button onClick={onTypeClick("monthly")}>monthly</button>
</header>

<CalendarPicker
type={type}
render={type => {
switch (this.props.type) {
case "monthly":
return <MonthlyCalendar />;
case "weekly":
return <WeeklyCalendar />;
default:
return <MonthlyCalendar />;
}
}}
/>
</>
)}
/>

  • "but jsx doesn't accept it." what does that mean? what is this.props.type? Sure that it's not switch (type) {?

  • "Or another way to match strings to components" {type === "weekly"? <WeeklyCalendar />: <MonthlyCalendar />}

This is what I did to achieve this. In my case there were around 50 components and according to the name in the string I had to render that component.



I created a file ComponentSelector.js which imports all the components.



ComponentSelector.js



export default const objComponents = {
MonthlyCalendar : {
LoadComponent: function () {
return require('../../Modules/MonthlyCalendar ').default;
}
},
WeeklyCalendar : {
LoadComponent: function () {
return require('../../Modules/WeeklyCalendar ').default;
}
}
}


Import it into your CalendarController component



  import objComponents  from './ComponentSelector.js';

render(){
var CalComp=objComponents[this.props.type].LoadComponent();
return(<div>
<header>
<p>header of agenda</p>
<button onClick={onTypeClick("weekly")}>weekly</button>
<button onClick={onTypeClick("monthly")}>monthly</button>
</header>
<CalComp type={type}/>
</div>)
}
