Uncontrolled range input
React, Components, Input · Nov 25, 2020

Renders an uncontrolled range input element that uses a callback function to pass its value to the parent component.
- Set the
type
of the<input>
element to"range"
to create a slider. - Use the
defaultValue
passed down from the parent as the uncontrolled input field's initial value. - Use the
onChange
event to fire theonValueChange
callback and send the new value to the parent.
const Slider = ({
min = 0,
max = 100,
defaultValue,
onValueChange,
...rest
}) => {
return (
<input
type="range"
min={min}
max={max}
defaultValue={defaultValue}
onChange={({ target: { value } }) => onValueChange(value)}
{...rest}
/>
);
};
ReactDOM.render(
<Slider onValueChange={val => console.log(val)} />,
document.getElementById('root')
);
