react-new-window-styles

This is a fork of react-new-window + styled-window-portal. Those 2 modules are really great when managing new windows, but those two together were lacking features! We needed a more composed solution, to handle both scenarios!

So i decided to merge those two together, where we can have styles from styled-components + styles from pure css added onto the page!

description

If a React portal is used to render to a new window, then styled-components will break as the styles declared are still being appended to the head of the original document. This package combats this by changing the inject point of the style to the head of the new window and copies globally injected styles to the new window.

We need a way to open new windows where we have general styles being added onto the page, without having so much pain!

Installation

yarn add -D react-new-window-styles

npm i -D react-new-window-styles

Example

import React from 'react';
import { render } from 'react-dom';
import styled, { createGlobalStyle } from 'styled-components';
import { ReactNewWindowStyles } from 'react-new-window-styles';

const MyDiv = styled.div`
  background: blue;
`;

const GlobalStyle = createGlobalStyle`
    body {
        margin: 0;
    }
`;

interface State {
  window: boolean;
}

class App extends React.Component<any, State> {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);

    this.state = {
      window: false,
    };
  }

  render() {
    return (
      <div>
        <GlobalStyle />
        <button
          onClick={() =>
            this.setState({
              window: !this.state.window,
            })
          }
        >
          Click me to {this.state.window ? 'close' : 'open'} the window
        </button>
        {this.state.window && (
          <ReactNewWindowStyles
            onClose={() =>
              this.setState({
                window: false,
              })
            }
            autoClose
          >
            <MyDiv>Look, it&apos;s blue! There are no borders either.</MyDiv>
          </ReactNewWindowStyles>
        )}
      </div>
    );
  }
}
render(<App />, document.getElementById('app'));
