React Confirm Dialog

A React confirm component. It does not work like the native Window.confirm(), but instead takes an action argument, which is the function to execute if the user confirms.

The confirm dialog renders outside of your component appended to body using a portal.

Usage

import ConfirmLink from 'react-confirm-dialog';

class App extends React.Component {
  alertSum(args) {
    alert(args.a + args.b);
  }
  render() {
    return (
      <ConfirmLink action={this.alertSum} actionArgs={{a:1, b:2}}>
        <a href="#">Click me to trigger the confirm popup</a>
      </ConfirmLink>
    );
  }
}

Props

• action: The action to perform when the user clicks the confirm button.
• actionArgs: Arguments to be passed to the action.
• confirmMessage: The message to display to the user in the confirm dialog (defaults to "Are you sure that you want to do this?").
• asHtml: Indicate that confirmMessage is HTML. Unchecked content, advise use of static information.
• confirmText: The text to display in the confirm button (defaults to "Yes please").
• cancelText: The text to display in the cancel button (defaults to "No thank you").
• confirmClasses: String of class names to apply to confirm button (see Styling)
• cancelClasses: String of class names to apply to cancel button (see Styling)

Setting default props

You can change the default props globally for all confirms with ConfirmLink.defaultProps[prop_name].

Eg. ConfirmLink.defaultProps.confirmMessage = 'Say this by default in all confirm messages';

Styling

There are two styles included in Confirm.css for the modal background and the confirm content:

.react-confirm-dialog-bg {
  ...
}
.react-confirm-dialog-content {
  ...
}

These have minimal properties to create a modal effect.

Buttons

There are two methods for styling the buttons:

1. Add styles for the class combinations:

• react-confirm-dialog-button confirm
• react-confirm-dialog-button cancel

2. Pass class name string via the properties. confirmClasses and cancelClasses

• This allows use of existing loaded css classes e.g. bootstrap
