react-router-alive

A keep-alive route component for react-router.

Build Status 996.icu

Why you need it

You may don't want to unmount a route component when switching to another one.

How it works

A AliveRoute component is provided to work within react-router, every target component of AliveRoute will be wrapped in a div element respectively, which means your dom structure will be changed if you use this repository, and react-native is not supported for the moment.

Despite the route being matched or not, all target components will be mounted, of which the css attribute display of all wrapper divs are set to none except the matched route.

For now the package only support "react": ">=16.8.4" and "react-router": ">=5.0.0".

The idea of setting style={{display: 'none'}} to realise this is from here.

How to use

children(wrapped JSX elements) and render attribute are not supported in AliveRoute, in which it is recommended to use component attribute to set a target route component, other basic usage of AliveRoute is almost the same with Route in react-router, here is the docs.

For customization reasons, you can use property activeClass to set css class for the matched route component and disactiveClass to set css class for the others.

A demo project is provided above or you can follow the steps below.

yarn add react-router-alive
import { Router, Link } from 'react-router-dom';
import { AliveRoute } from 'react-router-alive';
 
import Foo from './Foo';
import Bar from './Bar';
 
// ...
 
export default () => (
  <div className="app">
    <Router>
      <div>
        <ul>
          <li>
            <Link to="/foo">Foo</Link>
          </li>
          <li>
            <Link to="/bar">Bar</Link>
          </li>
          <li />
        </ul>
        <AliveRoute exact path="/foo" component={Foo} activeClass="active" disactiveClass="disactive" />
        <AliveRoute exact path="/bar" component={Bar} activeClass="active" disactiveClass="disactive" />
      </div>
    </Router>
  </div>
);
