            </tr>
        </thead>
        <tbody>
            { data.map((item, i) => { return (
            <ReactDeleteRow key={i} data={item} onDelete={ item => { return window.confirm(`Are you sure?`) }}>
                <td>{item.title}</td>
                <td>{item.body}</td>
            </ReactDeleteRow>
            )}) }
        </tbody>
    </table>
  );
}

Options

The following options are available on ReactDeleteRow:

• data - Payload data to return in event handler callbacks (onDelete, etc).

• className - CSS class to apply to the table row. Optional

• iconClassName - CSS class to apply to the delete icon. Optional

• delay - Number of milliseconds for the fade effect before removing the row from the DOM. Default is 300ms

• deleteElement - String or JSX elements (HTML) to render for the delete icon. Default is 'X'

• onDelete - Callback event handler for when the delete icon is clicked. Return TRUE to fade the row and remove from the DOM. Return FALSE to prevent removing the row. Optional

  key={i}
  data={item}
  deleteElement={ <i className="fas fa-trash-alt" /> }
  iconClassName='text-danger'
  className='text-success'
  onDelete={ item => { return window.confirm(`Are you sure you want to delete "${item.title}"?`) }}>
    <td>{item.title}</td>
    <td>{item.body}</td>
</ReactDeleteRow>

1. Clone the repository.
2. Open a terminal and navigate to the root folder.
3. Run the command npm install.
4. Run the command npm pack to test the tarball for the npm publish.

The contents from npm pack will include the /dist and /src folders, along with a package.json containing a main pointer to the file /dist/index.js.

You can also manually run the command npm run prepare to create a new build.

Notes

The component uses the CSS class fade to fade out the table row upon clicking. This can be overridden in your CSS to customize the animation effect.

.fade {
    opacity: 0;
    transition: opacity 500ms;
}
