Here's an example of how to generate a text input in React with TypeScript:
579 chars33 lines
This component takes in several props:
label
: the label for the inputvalue
: the current value of the inputhandleChange
: a function to be called when the input value changesplaceholder
: an optional placeholder for the inputname
: a name for the input (used for labels and form submission)In the body of the component, we render a label and an input element. The htmlFor
attribute of the label matches the name
attribute of the input, and the value
, onChange
, placeholder
, and name
attributes of the input are set according to the props passed in.
The handleChange
function must be of type (event: React.ChangeEvent<HTMLInputElement>) => void
, which means it takes in a change event and returns nothing. This function should be responsible for updating the value of the input in the parent component's state or props, depending on your application's architecture.
