React v0.12

October 28, 2014 dodane przez Paul O’Shannessy

We’re happy to announce the availability of React v0.12! After over a week of baking as the release candidate, we uncovered and fixed a few small issues. Thanks to all of you who upgraded and gave us feedback!

We have talked a lot about some of the bigger changes in this release. We introduced new terminology and changed APIs to clean up and simplify some of the concepts of React. We also made several changes to JSX and deprecated a few functions. We won’t go into depth about these changes again but we encourage you to read up on these changes in the linked posts. We’ll summarize these changes and discuss some of the other changes and how they may impact you below. As always, a full changelog is also included below.

The release is available for download:

We’ve also published version 0.12.0 of the react and react-tools packages on npm and the react package on bower.

New Terminology & Updated APIs

v0.12 is bringing about some new terminology. We introduced this 2 weeks ago and we’ve also documented it in a new section of the documentation. As a part of this, we also corrected many of our top-level APIs to align with the terminology. Component has been removed from all of our React.render* methods. While at one point the argument you passed to these functions was called a Component, it no longer is. You are passing ReactElements. To align with render methods in your component classes, we decided to keep the top-level functions short and sweet. React.renderComponent is now React.render.

We also corrected some other misnomers. React.isValidComponent actually determines if the argument is a ReactElement, so it has been renamed to React.isValidElement. In the same vein, React.PropTypes.component is now React.PropTypes.element and React.PropTypes.renderable is now React.PropTypes.node.

The old methods will still work but will warn upon first use. They will be removed in v0.13.

JSX Changes

We talked more in depth about these before, so here are the highlights.

  • No more /** @jsx React.DOM */!
  • We no longer transform to a straight function call. <Component/> now becomes React.createElement(Component)
  • DOM components don’t make use of React.DOM, instead we pass the tag name directly. <div/> becomes React.createElement('div')
  • We introduced spread attributes as a quick way to transfer props.

DevTools Improvements, No More __internals

For months we’ve gotten complaints about the React DevTools message. It shouldn’t have logged the up-sell message when you were already using the DevTools. Unfortunately this was because the way we implemented these tools resulted in the DevTools knowing about React, but not the reverse. We finally gave this some attention and enabled React to know if the DevTools are installed. We released an update to the devtools several weeks ago making this possible. Extensions in Chrome should auto-update so you probably already have the update installed!

As a result of this update, we no longer need to expose several internal modules to the world. If you were taking advantage of this implementation detail, your code will break. React.__internals is no more.

License Change - BSD

We updated the license on React to the BSD 3-Clause license with an explicit patent grant. Previously we used the Apache 2 license. These licenses are very similar and our extra patent grant is equivalent to the grant provided in the Apache license. You can still use React with the confidence that we have granted the use of any patents covering it. This brings us in line with the same licensing we use across the majority of our open source projects at Facebook.

You can read the full text of the LICENSE and PATENTS files on GitHub.


Changelog

React Core

Breaking Changes

  • key and ref moved off props object, now accessible on the element directly
  • React is now BSD licensed with accompanying Patents grant
  • Default prop resolution has moved to Element creation time instead of mount time, making them effectively static
  • React.__internals is removed - it was exposed for DevTools which no longer needs access
  • Composite Component functions can no longer be called directly - they must be wrapped with React.createFactory first. This is handled for you when using JSX.

New Features

  • Spread syntax ({...}) introduced to deprecate this.transferPropsTo
  • Added support for more HTML attributes: acceptCharset, classID, manifest

Deprecations

  • React.renderComponent —> React.render
  • React.renderComponentToString —> React.renderToString
  • React.renderComponentToStaticMarkup —> React.renderToStaticMarkup
  • React.isValidComponent —> React.isValidElement
  • React.PropTypes.component —> React.PropTypes.element
  • React.PropTypes.renderable —> React.PropTypes.node
  • DEPRECATED React.isValidClass
  • DEPRECATED instance.transferPropsTo
  • DEPRECATED Returning false from event handlers to preventDefault
  • DEPRECATED Convenience Constructor usage as function, instead wrap with React.createFactory
  • DEPRECATED use of key={null} to assign implicit keys

Bug Fixes

  • Better handling of events and updates in nested results, fixing value restoration in “layered” controlled components
  • Correctly treat event.getModifierState as case sensitive
  • Improved normalization of event.charCode
  • Better error stacks when involving autobound methods
  • Removed DevTools message when the DevTools are installed
  • Correctly detect required language features across browsers
  • Fixed support for some HTML attributes:

    • list updates correctly now
    • scrollLeft, scrollTop removed, these should not be specified as props
  • Improved error messages

React With Addons

New Features

  • React.addons.batchedUpdates added to API for hooking into update cycle

Breaking Changes

  • React.addons.update uses assign instead of copyProperties which does hasOwnProperty checks. Properties on prototypes will no longer be updated correctly.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed some issues with CSS Transitions

JSX

Breaking Changes

  • Enforced convention: lower case tag names are always treated as HTML tags, upper case tag names are always treated as composite components
  • JSX no longer transforms to simple function calls

New Features

  • @jsx React.DOM no longer required
  • spread ({...}) operator introduced to allow easier use of props

Bug Fixes

  • JSXTransformer: Make sourcemaps an option when using APIs directly (eg, for react-rails)
