React OutsideClickHandler

A React component to handle cases where you want to detect clicks outside of a component tree, such as clicking outside of a field, menu, modal dialog, etc.

Example Usage

An example of how to use this:

var React = require('react');
var OutsideClickHandler = require('react-outsideclickhandler');

var MyBox = React.createClass({
  getInitialState: function () {
    return {isOpen: true};
  },
  render: function () {
    if (this.state.isOpen) {
        return (
          <div>
            <OutsideClickHandler onOutsideClick={this.close}>
              This is my box text
              <button>Do nothing!</button>
            </OutsideClickHandler>
          </div>
        );
    } else {
      return (<div>I am closed now!</div>);
    }
  },
  close: function () {
    this.setState({isOpen: false});
  }
});

Clicks on or within OutsideClickHandler will do nothing, while clicks outside of it will close the box.
