In React, Rendering results of the search in another component refers to that technique of sharing code between React components with a prop whose value is a function. With the help of render prop, a component with the help of getting a function that returns a React element and then calls it instead of implementing its render logic.


The render() function's main purpose is to display the specified HTML code inside the specified HTML element. We can also render one component inside another component and create the parent-child relationship between the two or more components in React. In React, it schedules a render every time the state of a component changes, and then scheduling a render means that this doesn't happen immediately. It will try to find the best moment for this. React triggers an update when we call the setState function changing the state. To show the search results in React, we must navigate our parent folder, create a subfolder called pages, and create the search input file. To get results from another component in React, pass the data from the child to the parent component, then we must create a callback function.


Here is an example of how you can render the results of the search in another component in React:

In this solution we're using React library.

Dependent Libraries : 
import React from 'react';
import { render } from 'react-dom';

const Result = ({results}) => {
  return results.map((r, i) => <div key={i}>{r}</div>);
}

const Search = (props) => {
  const {
    searchQuery,
    onChange,
    search
  } = props;

  return <div>
    <input
      type="text"
      value={searchQuery}
      onChange={onChange}
    />
    <button onClick={search}>Search</button>
  </div>;
}

class Container extends React.Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);

    this.state = {
      searchQuery: '',
      results: []
    }

    this.onSearchQueryChange = this.onSearchQueryChange.bind(this);
    this.onSearch = this.onSearch.bind(this);
  }

  onSearchQueryChange(e) {
    this.setState({searchQuery: e.target.value});
  }

  onSearch() {
    // Simulate AJAX call
    setTimeout(() => {
      this.setState({results: [0, 1, 2, 3, 4]});
    }, 1000)
  }

  render() {
    const {results, searchQuery} = this.state;

    return <div>
      <Search
        searchQuery={searchQuery}
        onChange={this.onSearchQueryChange}
        search={this.onSearch}
      />
      <Result results={results} />
    </div>;
  }
}

Instructions

Follow the steps carefully to get the output easily.

  1. Install the Node.js and React on your IDE(preferable Visual Studio Code).
  2. Create React Application using npx create-react-app foldername.
  3. cd foldername.
  4. Open the folder in IDE.
  5. Copy the code using "copy" button above and paste it in index.js file(remove the earlier code from index.js) and you have to add one line at the end of the code, for that use demo as your reference.
  6. Open the terminal from IDE.
  7. npm start to run the file.


You can also refer this url 'DEMO' for getting the above output.

I hope you found this useful. I have added the link to dependent libraries, version information in the following sections.


I found this code snippet by searching for 'how to render results of search in another component in react' in kandi. You can try any such use case!

Environment Tested

I tested this solution in the following versions. Be mindful of changes when working with other versions.

  1. The solution is created in Visual Studio Code 1.73.1.
  2. The solution is tested on node v18.12.1 and npm v8.19.2.
  3. React version-18.2.0.


Using this solution, we are able to render results of search in another component in React with simple steps. This process also facilities an easy way to use, hassle-free method to create a hands-on working version of code which would help us to render results of search in another component in React.
