Lets make your life-hackish view.

Now one of the big drawbacks of Ruby on Rails, in my opinion, is the use of JavaScript within the View layer of the application.

With the trend of many applications leading towards not having to reload the page to depict the necessary information, Rails really lacks in this area with the use of JavaScript. Well it just so happens there is an easy solution to this, and it comes in the form a framework called AngularJS. JavaScript frameworks are extremely popular nowadays and are used to alleviate the pain of integrating JavaScript into your application.

JavaScript is what makes the browser come to life when you use a website. By popping up notifications on the screen, letting you switch between tabs, or rendering a new object on the page if you select a button, JavaScript breathes life into any web application.

AngularJS is really popular due to it being easy to work with and the fact that you can bind a lot of behavior to your HTML views without having to write that much JavaScript. Angular has a concept called Directives, which let you bind behavior to specific elements on your page. Directives can perform things such as showing, hiding, repeating, and much more. I had to hack it with window. Maybe it has changed in most recent version of React, I don't think the call to requestAnimationFrame is necessary.

This method is not called for the initial render. Use this as an opportunity to operate on the DOM when the component has been updated. JimSoho, I hope you're right that this was fixed, but there's not actually anything new in that documentation. This is for edge cases where the dom being updated isn't enough, and it's important that we wait for the paint cycle. I tried to create a fiddle with the new versions and the old, but I couldnt seem to create a complex enough component to demonstrate the issue, even going back a few versions In this situation the node still needs to have its layout calculated by the DOM aka "reflowed".

Page lifecycle: DOMContentLoaded, load, beforeunload, unload

This uses RAF as a way of jumping from before the layout to after the layout. The browser documentation from Elm is a good place for more: Elliot Chong 6 However, in the context of React's componentDidMount method if you attach a requestAnimationFrame before that stack is finished the DOM may not actually be fully updated. I have code that consistently reproduces this behavior within the context of React's callbacks.

The only way to be sure your code is executing once again, in this specific React use-case after the DOM has updated is letting the call stack clear first with a setTimeout. You'll notice other comments above which mention needing the same workaround, i. If I had to venture a guess it may be due to React batching updates themselves which potentially don't get applied within the current stack hence deferring the requestAnimationFrame to the next frame to ensure the batch is applied.

I think you might need to brush up on your JS internals Waiting for the current call stack to clear is obviously not a "nonsensical" way to talk about the event loop, but to each his own I guess In your case and the cases which needs to interact with the DOM elements, you need to wait till the dom is ready, so use componentDidMount as below: I feel that this solution is dirty, but here we go: Jaakko Karhu 13 You should respect a React component lifecycle.

Angular & Rails: A Perfect Match

If you have a better way to reach the same result, feel free to share. Rather call a method from both lifecycles, then you don't have to trigger cycles from other cycles. Juampy NR 1, 16 I mostly return elements from the render method, I don't call render and provide values. Unfortunately the callback you mention is only available in the for the toplevel ReactDOM.

Pauwelyn 5, 17 45 When she finally took him to court, the judge ordered them both to paint a picture to ascertain who was telling the truth, in a move that seems almost too cinematic to be true.

I was so happy to actually have it finally and legally proved that I was the real artist. But he cautions against viewing her years as a secret painter with pity: She went along with it — she was complicit. She just felt she needed to release the truth.
