Cannot update during an existing state transition warning about react-spaces HOT 11 CLOSED

@slapbox It's not weird. Actually I had the use case myself. The viewport space actually has top, right, bottom and left properties to allow you to offset from the edge of the viewport. I just forgot to document it! In your case adding top={20} to the viewport space will do what you want without having to resort to using CSS.

@slapbox ViewPort is the way to go if you actually want it to fill the browser. I've actually only used Fixed spaces with a pixel height so there could be an issue that manifests itself when a percentage height is used. I'll try to repro.

Glad that helped. It did highlight that I was not validating properties on the components for JS only consumers (non Typescript). I had typed the height property on the Fixed space as number with the intention that only pixel heights could be passed there. I've added issue #34 to add PropTypes for each component to avoid confusion in the future.

Getting this as well ^^

Warning: Cannot update during an existing state transition (such as within `render`). Render methods should be a pure function of props and state.

from react-spaces.

Whilst not ideal I haven't noticed any side effects apart from the warning message itself in dev.

This warning has been resolved with the refactor to React Hooks in #22

@aeagle this is possibly still occurring as a new error:

react-dom.development.js:546 Warning: Maximum update depth exceeded. This can happen when a component calls setState inside useEffect, but useEffect either doesn't have a dependency array, or one of the dependencies changes on every render.

Only seems to happen with Space.Fixed, not with Space.ViewPort.

Hi @slapbox. Thanks for reporting. Could you post the JSX you are using to produce this warning? Does the error happen straight away after first render or after a state or props change? It looks like you are using Redux at the root so any info on any props/state changes that are happening in your case would be appreciated so that I can try to repro.

from react-spaces.

Hey @aeagle thanks for your reply. It's really weird, I had it working for several fresh starts of my project, but as I kept tweaking the CSS eventually it stopped working. Reverting the CSS didn't work. I eventually swapped out my intended children for simple spans, but the issue persisted.

The code is just:

      <Spaces.Fixed height="100%">
        <Spaces.LeftResizable size="25%">
          <span>Hello</span>
        </Spaces.LeftResizable>
        <Spaces.Fill>
          <span>Goodbye</span>
        </Spaces.Fill>
      </Spaces.Fixed>

I've updated the above post with the complete call stack.

We're using React Hot Loader (and gaeron's patched react-dom that's compatible with hooks) and not doing anything to trigger hot loading when this occurs. It's (weirdly) hard to be 100% certain hot loading is disabled when used with Webpack. It seems like a few places need to be updated. I haven't tried it in an environment where I'm completely certain hot loading is disabled, but as I mentioned it shouldn't be causing any issues because it shouldn't be patching anything.

As far as props/state changes nothing unusual going on and no loops that carry on for more than say 10-15 render cycles when starting up as we wait for data and try initializing again after a brief delay until we have it.,

Trying to reproduce the issue today, I've not been able to so far except by leaving the height prop off of <Fixed />. I wonder if using percentage based height perhaps isn't consistently safe? I'm not quite sure what's going on behind the scenes.

I've modified my approach to use <ViewPort /> for now so I'm hopeful I won't be seeing the issue again, but if I do I'll update the issue with any new information I uncover.

Thanks for this awesome project!

My situation is a bit weird, where we want to fill all but the top 20px. Adding a css rule to modify <ViewPort /> top: 20px seems to work without any negative effects (so far.)

That works great!
