Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

React component to hold the highest height established by a child component even though it no longer exists in the browser window.

Demos

Installation

npm install --save react-hold-height    

Overview & Basic Example

<HoldHeight /> components are mounted with height 0px (unless specified by the initialHeight prop). As your child component is rendered, <HoldHeight /> adopts a minimum height (min-height) equal to the height of that child component. If the child component is changed and its height is different, <HoldHeight /> performs the following logic:

  • If new child component height <= last child component height: <HoldHeight /> height stays the same.
  • If new child component height > last child component height: <HoldHeight /> minimum height becomes equal to new child component height.

This behavior is useful in many situations, for example:

  • When the child component is being re-render you want to display a loading animation without the container collapsing making the footer go up causing a bad visual impression.
  • When working with pagination, you want the last page containing fewer items to have the same height as the other pages.
import React, { Component } from 'react';
import HoldHeight from 'react-hold-height';

class App extends Component {
  state = { page: 0 };

  renderElements(pageNumber) {
    if (pageNumber === 0) {
      return (
        <ul>
          <li>This is a long list</li>
          <li>of items</li>
          <li>and takes a lot</li>
          <li>of space</li>
          <li>when I click "Next Page"</li>
          <li>the button the container should</li>
          <li>not collapse</li>
          <li>making the button remain in the same place</li>
        </ul>
      );
    }

    if (pageNumber === 1) {
      return (
        <ul>
          <li>Not so many items now</li>
          <li>but its ok. Button stay in the same place</li>
        </ul>
      );
    }
  }

  renderPaginationBtn(pageNumber) {
    if (pageNumber === 0) {
      return (
        <button onClick={() => this.setState({ page: 1 })}>Next Page</button>
      );
    }

    if (pageNumber === 1) {
      return (
        <button onClick={() => this.setState({ page: 0 })}>Prev. Page</button>
      );
    }
  }

  render() {
    return (
      <div className="App">
        <HoldHeight>
          {this.renderElements(this.state.page)}
        </HoldHeight>
                
        {this.renderPaginationBtn(this.state.page)}
      </div>
    );
  }
}
