Renders an uncontrolled `<textarea>` element that uses a callback function to pass its value to the parent component.
|
|
|
|
- Use the `defaultValue` passed down from the parent as the uncontrolled input field's initial value.
|
|
- Use the `onChange` event to fire the `onValueChange` callback and send the new value to the parent.
|
|
|
|
```jsx
|
|
const TextArea = ({
|
|
cols = 20,
|
|
rows = 2,
|
|
defaultValue,
|
|
onValueChange,
|
|
...rest
|
|
}) => {
|
|
return (
|
|
<textarea
|
|
cols={cols}
|
|
rows={rows}
|
|
defaultValue={defaultValue}
|
|
onChange={({ target: { value } }) => onValueChange(value)}
|
|
{...rest}
|
|
/>
|
|
);
|
|
};
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```jsx
|
|
ReactDOM.render(
|
|
<TextArea
|
|
placeholder="Insert some text here..."
|
|
onValueChange={val => console.log(val)}
|
|
/>,
|
|
document.getElementById('root')
|
|
);
|
|
```
