Conditional render of stage

[cassio-nuke]

Works great! Thanks for sharing

[pocesar]

you mean in the sense of skipping a stage if some condition is met? if not, you can do any logic you want inside the render props and return a null to render nothing

[wesleyguirra]

Maybe skipping can be a good solution but I don't know how to do that, there is a Stage prop for this?

[wesleyguirra]

Tried to do logic inside render prop get a TypeError: Cannot read property type of null,
see: https://gist.github.com/wesleyguirra/f1cfe8ace119f04c9f6f06b5deb0ae8c

[pocesar]

I meant, inside the the Stage. all stages are collected at the parent rendering, you can't conditionally add them to Stager, and must be a direct child

[wesleyguirra]

Understood, there's a way to know the stage index? so I can check at onPress of StageButtons

[pocesar]

yes, you can use <Stager onChange={(stage, direction) => {}}> to know the current stage, and you may do some logic in there (like checking the current state and acting upon it).
you could also do something inside <Stage loaded={(cb) => { }}> change the parent stage or skip a stage if you must, just don't forget to call the cb

[pocesar]

just a heads up, although late to the party, this will come as a new functionality in 2.0 as willSkip (which defaults to false, and supports returning a promise from it)

[nconroy]

Instead of returning null returning an empty string seems to work.

{this.state.showstep4 ?
                        <Stage key="step4">
                            <View>
                    
                            </View>
                        </Stage> : ''
                    }

Hi @pocesar can you explain more on how do I skip a stage at "loaded"?

Thanks in advance

[pocesar]

@cassio-nuke get a ref from the Stager, so you can control it from the outside, as such

<Stager ref={(_ref) => this.stagerRef=_ref} >
   <Stage key="key" loaded={(cb) => { this.doSomeLogic() ? this.stagerRef.next() : cb() }}>
   </Stage>
</Stager>

on newer React versions (>=16.3) it's advised to use React.createRef(), but needs to use this.stagerRef.current instead and <Stager ref={this.stagerRef}>

Hi,
I have code like this in Stage:
<Button onPress={() => {
this.setState({
inte: 1000
})
}} />
<Text..>{this.state.inte.toString()}</Text..>

This doesn't update <Text..>, but if I go one step back, and then return to Step 2, text is rendered.
I also tried with code:
<Button onPress={() => {
this.setState({
inte: 113
}, () => {instance.refresh})
}} />

Can you help, what I have to do in order to setState function update Stage content

[pocesar]

you need to call the function, in that case

this.setState({
inte: 113
}, instance.refresh)
// or
this.setState({
inte: 113
}, () => {instance.refresh()})

[ersink1989]

Sorry, but this doesn't work in my case. :(
Maybe I am doing something wrong, I am new with react-native.
I copy/paste your example, and just add button as you can see bellow, and it still doesn't work.
Can you check it please:

          <Stager onChange={(stage, direction) => {
                }}>
                  <Stage key="step 1" continue={() => true}>
                    {({ instance, context }) => (
                      <View>
                        <TouchableOpacity onPress={context.notify}>
                          <Text>{"Hello"}</Text>
                          <Button  onPress={() => {this.setState({
                                                    inte: String(113)
                                                    }, () => {instance.refresh()})}} />

                          <Text>{this.state.inte}</Text> 
                        </TouchableOpacity>
                      </View>
                    )}
                  </Stage>
                  <Stage key="step 2" noPrevious loaded={(cb) => this.setState({ loaded: true }, cb)}>
                    {() => (
                      <Text>{'World'}</Text>
                    )}
                  </Stage>
                </Stager>

[pocesar]

there's two click handlers, and the first one will be the button

<Button  onPress={() => {this.setState({
   inte: String(113)
}, () => {instance.refresh()})}} />

this is stopping the propagation to the parent TouchableOpacity. You can either remove the TouchableOpacity and put context.notify() inside your button, or remove the button from inside the TouchableOpacity and put it somewhere else. or you can use context.notify instead of refresh

<Button  onPress={() => {
   this.setState({
      inte: String(113)
   }, context.notify)
}}  /> // re-indented for clarity
