Get div's offsetTop positions in React

问题:

I am trying to implement a List view in React. What I am trying to achieve is that to store the list headers informations and register the components and register the scroll event. every time when user scroll the window, I'd like to take out the stored div and re-calculate the offsetTop data.

The problem now is that, I found the console just print out the initial value (the value is fixed and never changed) offsetTop data never change in onscroll function.

Anyone suggest how to get latest offsetTop from the _instances object?

import React, { Component } from 'react';
import ListHeader from './lib/ListHeader';
import ListItems from './lib/ListItems';

const styles = {
  'height': '400px',
  'overflowY': 'auto',
  'outline': '1px dashed red',
  'width': '40%'
};

class HeaderPosInfo {
  constructor(headerObj, originalPosition, originalHeight) {
    this.headerObj = headerObj;
    this.originalPosition = originalPosition;
    this.originalHeight = originalHeight; 
  }
}

export default class ReactListView extends Component {
  static defaultProps = {
    events: ['scroll', 'mousewheel', 'DOMMouseScroll', 'MozMousePixelScroll', 'resize', 'touchmove', 'touchend'],
    _instances:[],
    _positionMap: new Set(),
    _topPos:'',
    _topWrapper:''
  }

  static propTypes = {
    data: React.PropTypes.array.isRequired,
    headerAttName: React.PropTypes.string.isRequired,
    itemsAttName: React.PropTypes.string.isRequired,
    events: React.PropTypes.array,
    _instances: React.PropTypes.array,
    _positionMap: React.PropTypes.object,
    _topPos: React.PropTypes.string,
    _topWrapper: React.PropTypes.object
  };

  state = {
    events: this.props.events,
    _instances: this.props._instances,
    _positionMap: this.props._positionMap,
    _topPos: this.props._topPos
  }

  componentDidMount() {
    this.initStickyHeaders();
  }

  componentWillUnmount() {

  }

  componentDidUpdate() {

  }

  refsToArray(ctx, prefix){
    let results = [];
    for (let i=0;;i++){
      let ref = ctx.refs[prefix + '-' + String(i)];
      if (ref) results.push(ref);
      else return results;
    }
  }

  initHeaderPositions() {
    // Retrieve all instance of headers and store position info
    this.props._instances.forEach((k)=>{
      this.props._positionMap.add(new HeaderPosInfo(
          k, 
          k.refs.header.getDOMNode().offsetTop,
          k.refs.header.getDOMNode().offsetHeight
        ));
    });
    let it = this.props._positionMap.values();
    let first = it.next();
    this.props._topPos = first.value.originalPosition;
    this.props._topWrapper = first.value.headerObj;
  }

  initStickyHeaders () {
    this.props._instances = this.refsToArray(this, 'ListHeader');
    this.initHeaderPositions();

    // Register events listeners with the listview div
    this.props.events.forEach(type => {
      if (window.addEventListener) {
        React.findDOMNode(this.refs.listview).addEventListener(type, this.onScroll.bind(this), false);
      } else {
        React.findDOMNode(this.refs.listview).attachEvent('on' + type, this.onScroll.bind(this), false);
      }
    });
  }

  onScroll() {

    // update current header positions and apply fixed positions to the top one
    console.log(1);
    let offsetTop  = React.findDOMNode(this.props._instances[0].refs.header).offsetTop;

  }

  render() {
    const { data, headerAttName, itemsAttName } = this.props;
    let _refi = 0;
    let makeRef = () => {
      return 'ListHeader-' + (_refi++);
    };

    return (
      <div ref="listview" style={styles}>
      {
        Object.keys(data).map(k => {
        const header = data[k][headerAttName];
        const items  = data[k][itemsAttName];
          return (
            <ul key={k}>     
              <ListHeader ref={makeRef()} header={header} />
              <ListItems  items={items} />
            </ul>
          );
        })
      }
      </div>
    );
  }
}

The whole source code is on Github, you can clone and compile it from here:

You may be encouraged to use the Element.getBoundingClientRect() method to get the top offset of your element. This method provides the full offset values (left, top, right, bottom, width, height) of your element in the viewport.

Check the John Resig's post describing how helpful this method is.

回答2:

Eugene's answer uses the correct function to get the data, but for posterity I'd like to spell out exactly how to use it in React v0.14+ (according to this answer):

  import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
  //...
  componentDidMount() {
    var rect = ReactDOM.findDOMNode(this)
      .getBoundingClientRect()
  }

Is working for me perfectly, and I'm using the data to scroll to the top of the new component that just mounted.

I do realize that the author asks question in relation to a class-based component, however I think it's worth mentioning that as of React 16.8.0 (February 6, 2019) you can take advantage of hooks in function-based components.

Example code:

import { useRef } from 'react'

function Component() {
  const inputRef = useRef()

  return (
    <input ref={inputRef} />
    <div
      onScroll={() => {
        const { offsetTop } = inputRef.current
        ...
      }}
    >
  )
}

回答4:

A quicker way if you are using React 16.3 and above is by creating a ref in the constructor, then attaching it to the component you wish to use with as shown below.

...
constructor(props){
   ...
   //create a ref
   this.someRefName = React.createRef();

}

onScroll(){
let offsetTop = this.someRefName.current.offsetTop;

}

render(){
...
<Component ref={this.someRefName} />

}

回答5:

A better solution with ref to avoid findDOMNode that is discouraged.

...
onScroll() {
    let offsetTop  = this.instance.getBoundingClientRect().top;
}
...
render() {
...
<Component ref={(el) => this.instance = el } />
...

回答6:

  import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
  //...
  componentDidMount() {
    var n = ReactDOM.findDOMNode(this);
    console.log(n.offsetTop);
  }

You can just grab the offsetTop from the Node.
