Just to follow up, I have a looked a bit closer at the changes around the time it stopped working for me and in the mdbreact package.json file, react and reactdom were both moved to devDependencies. What I don't understand is why that is causing me problems and no one else!

mpcooke4 pro commented 5 years ago

Should react be a peer dependancy rather than a dev dependancy to ensure the react library is available?

Jakub Mandra staff commented 5 years ago

Hi,

react should be in your dependencies, so as react-dom. Please try to use React 16.8.6. Error msg tells that the problem is caused by Popover/Tootlip component which is built using hooks.

If it won't help, please contact me for further assistance.

Best,

Jakub

I have react and react-dom in my package.json dependancies: "react": "^16.8.6", "react-dom": "^16.8.6",

I also tried deleting nodemodules and running npm install again. react is downloaded into my nodemodules. I don't understand why it still doesn't work after adding it and re-installing everything, perhaps it's something to do with webpack although I am just using react-scripts.

What I do know for sure is I can make it work if I pin the mdbreact version to before you moved the dependancies into dev.

Here is the error, after ensuring package.json has react 16.8.6, deleting nodemodules and a fresh npm install × ←→1 of 8 errors on the page TypeError: Cannot read property 'type' of undefined (anonymous function) node_modules/mdbreact/dist/mdbreact.esm.js:6749 6746 | var contentClasses = classNames(!popover && "tooltip-inner"); 6747 | return React.createElement(Manager, null, React.createElement(Reference, null, function (_ref2) { 6748 | var ref = _ref2.ref;

The full error trace shows that this error happens due to a setState call which I make after loading some data in the componentDidMount() method. I thought it was suppose to be okay to do this, but it seems to fail after MDBreact version fcdbb72d with this strange type error. I'll look into it further tomorrow. My react app renders okay when I remove this setState line, albeit without any loaded data of course...

Can you share your project with us so we could see what is going on there?

You can invite me (@Rotarepmi) on private GitHub repo.

Best,

Jakub

Thanks the project using mdbreact is in cowfoo/new-react-web-client

mpcooke4 pro commented 5 years ago

You probaby read the stack trace better than me, but it isn't React that was undefined, it is wrapper. I still don't understand why upgrading mdbreact would cause that error though.

mpcooke4 pro commented 5 years ago

Let me know if you have any problems reproducing it. I left the breakage in head and granted you access...

Jakub Mandra staff commented 5 years ago

Hi there,

Sorry it took so long, I had problems with installation, caused by "synchronize" package (took some time to find out).

I've checked your project and found what is going on - you're using Popovers/Tooltips old syntax. They were completely rebuilt in 4.13.0 version and their syntax had to be changed.

Check new docs: https://mdbootstrap.com/docs/react/advanced/popovers/

Hope this will help.

Best,

Jakub

mpcooke4 pro commented 5 years ago

Many thanks for identifying the problem!

Does the new syntax support wrapping a popup around an arbitrary element? I can see it can wrap a button okay but it doesn't seem to work on a div - does the wrapped element need to have certain properties?

Jakub Mandra staff commented 5 years ago

Try below code, you just need to add domElement property to you Popover/Tooltip, so it will go on with native elements:

import React from "react";
import { MDBPopover, MDBPopoverBody, MDBPopoverHeader } from "mdbreact";

const PopoverPage = () => {
  return (
        <MDBPopover
          placement="top"
          popover
          clickable
          id="popper1"
          domElement
        >
          <div>popover on top</div>
          <div>
            <MDBPopoverHeader>popover on top</MDBPopoverHeader>
            <MDBPopoverBody>
              Sed posuere consectetur est at lobortis. Aenean eu leo quam.
              Pellentesque ornare sem lacinia quam venenatis vestibulum.
            </MDBPopoverBody>
          </div>
        </MDBPopover>
  );
}

export default PopoverPage;
