A React component that traps focus.

This component is a light wrapper around focus-trap, tailored to your React-specific needs.

You might want it for, say, building an accessible modal?

Check out the demo.

Please read the focus-trap documentation to understand what a focus trap is, what happens when a focus trap is activated, and what happens when one is deactivated.

This module simply provides a React component that creates and manages a focus trap.

• The focus trap automatically activates when mounted (by default, though this can be changed).
• The focus trap automatically deactivates when unmounted.
• The focus trap can be activated and deactivated, paused and unpaused via props.

npm install focus-trap-react

dist/focus-trap-react.js is the Babel-compiled file that you'll use.

Version 2+ is compatible with React >0.14+.

Version 1 is compatible with React 0.13.

Basically IE9+.

Why? Because this module's core functionality comes from focus-trap, which uses a couple of IE9+ functions.

Read code in demo/ (it's very simple), and see how it works.

Here's one simple example:

const React = require('react');
const ReactDOM = require('react-dom');
const FocusTrap = require('../../dist/focus-trap-react');

const container = document.getElementById('demo-one');

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

    this.state = {
      activeTrap: false
    };

    this.mountTrap = this.mountTrap.bind(this);
    this.unmountTrap = this.unmountTrap.bind(this);
  }

  mountTrap() {
    this.setState({ activeTrap: true });
  }

  unmountTrap() {
    this.setState({ activeTrap: false });
  }

  render() {
    const trap = this.state.activeTrap
      ? <FocusTrap
          focusTrapOptions={{
            onDeactivate: this.unmountTrap
          }}
        >
          <div className="trap">
            <p>
              Here is a focus trap
              {' '}
              <a href="#">with</a>
              {' '}
              <a href="#">some</a>
              {' '}
              <a href="#">focusable</a>
              {' '}
              parts.
            </p>
            <p>
              <button onClick={this.unmountTrap}>
                deactivate trap
              </button>
            </p>
          </div>
        </FocusTrap>
      : false;

    return (
      <div>
        <p>
          <button onClick={this.mountTrap}>
            activate trap
          </button>
        </p>
        {trap}
      </div>
    );
  }
}

ReactDOM.render(<DemoOne />, container);

Type: Object, optional

Pass any of the options available in focus-trap's createOptions.

Type: Boolean, optional

By default, the FocusTrap activates when it mounts. So you activate and deactivate it via mounting and unmounting. If, however, you want to keep the FocusTrap mounted while still toggling its activation state, you can do that with this prop.

See demo/demo-three.jsx.

Type: Boolean, optional

If you would like to pause or unpause the focus trap (see focus-trap's documentation), toggle this prop.

Type: String, Default: div, optional

An HTML tag for the FocusTrap's DOM node.

All props not mentioned above are passed directly to the rendered DOM element. This means that you can pass id, className, style, aria-attributes, data-attributes, or any other arbitrary property that you want to use to customize the element.
