In which order are parent-child components rendered?

问题

If I have Two Components (Parent & Child) like this :

1-The Parent (Countdown):

var Countdown = React.createClass({
  getInitialState: function(){
    return{count: 0};
  },
  handleSetCountdown: function(seconds){
    this.setState({
      count: seconds
    });
  },
  render:function(){
    var {count} = this.state;
    return(
      <div>
        <Clock totalSeconds={count}/>
        <CountdownForm onSetCountdown={this.handleSetCountdown} />
      </div>
    );
  }
});

module.exports =Countdown;

---

2-The Child (CountdownForm):

var CountdownForm = React.createClass({
  onSubmit: function(e){
    e.preventDefault();
    var strSeconds = this.refs.seconds.value;
    if(strSeconds.match(/^[0-9]*$/)){
      this.refs.seconds.value ='';
      this.props.onSetCountdown(parseInt(strSeconds,10));

    }
  },
  render: function(){
    return(
      <div>
        <form ref="form" onSubmit={this.onSubmit} className="countdown-form">
          <input type="text" ref="seconds" placeholder="Enter Time In Seconds"/>
          <button className="button expanded">Start</button>
        </form>
      </div>
    );
  }
});

module.exports = CountdownForm;

I'm confused about the life cycle (the order in which the components are rendered)?

回答1:

I'm not immediately seeing a clear "this is the order of lifecycle events between parent and child" in the React docs, though I could be missing it.

It's trivial to determine empirically, of course:

class Child extends React.Component {
    constructor(...args) {
        super(...args);
        console.log("Child constructor");
    }
    componentWillMount(...args) {
        console.log("Child componentWillMount");
    }
    componentDidMount(...args) {
        console.log("Child componentDidMount");
    }
    render() {
        console.log("Child render");
        return <div>Hi there</div>;
    }
}

class Parent extends React.Component {
    constructor(...args) {
        super(...args);
        console.log("Parent constructor");
    }
    componentWillMount(...args) {
        console.log("Parent componentWillMount");
    }
    componentDidMount(...args) {
        console.log("Parent componentDidMount");
    }
    render() {
        console.log("Parent render start");
        const c = <Child />;
        console.log("Parent render end");
        return c;
    }
}

ReactDOM.render(<Parent />, document.getElementById("react"));

.as-console-wrapper {
  max-height: 100% !important;
}

<div id="react"></div>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/react/15.1.0/react.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/react/15.1.0/react-dom.min.js"></script>

That shows us the order:

Parent constructor
Parent componentWillMount
Parent render start
Parent render end
Child constructor
Child componentWillMount
Child render
Child componentDidMount
Parent componentDidMount

Which got me wondering about the order of children within a parent, so:

class Child extends React.Component {
    constructor(props, ...rest) {
        super(props, ...rest);
        console.log(this.props.name + " constructor");
    }
    componentWillMount(...args) {
        console.log(this.props.name + " componentWillMount");
    }
    componentDidMount(...args) {
        console.log(this.props.name + " componentDidMount");
    }
    render() {
        console.log(this.props.name + " render");
        return <div>Hi from {this.props.name}!</div>;
    }
}

class Parent extends React.Component {
    constructor(...args) {
        super(...args);
        console.log("Parent constructor");
    }
    componentWillMount(...args) {
        console.log("Parent componentWillMount");
    }
    componentDidMount(...args) {
        console.log("Parent componentDidMount");
    }
    render() {
        console.log("Parent render start");
        const result =
            <div>
                <Child name="Child1" />
                <Child name="Child2" />
            </div>;
        console.log("Parent render end");
        return result;
    }
}

ReactDOM.render(<Parent />, document.getElementById("react"));

.as-console-wrapper {
  max-height: 100% !important;
}

<div id="react"></div>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/react/15.1.0/react.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/react/15.1.0/react-dom.min.js"></script>

Which gives us:

Parent constructor
Parent componentWillMount
Parent render start
Parent render end
Child1 constructor
Child1 componentWillMount
Child1 render
Child2 constructor
Child2 componentWillMount
Child2 render
Child1 componentDidMount
Child2 componentDidMount
Parent componentDidMount

Not at all surprising, but good to double-check. :-)
