React-data-grid: Upgrade to React 15

[diogofcunha]

The long waited React 15 update is coming soon. It will be part of grid 2.0 release and will be carried out after the multiple package implementation (Issue, PR)

Firstly, thank you all for the updates and effort.

Secondly, do you have an idea of the changes we'll have to make as we update to react-data-grid 2.0?

Hi @tranquilize.

With the update we will create some release notes with key aspects for a smooth update.

Great Job! Thank you for updating to React 15 and for a professional quality data grid. Please consider working on data grouping function called for each row in a group. An example can be found @ http://reactjsexample.com/react-pivot-data-grid-component-with-pivot-table-like-functionality-for-data-display/. This will provide a way to count or sum all the records in a group. Thanks you again for your commitment to a great data grid for react. -Brent Groves - brent.[email protected]

Hi there,

Thank you very much for your work on updating react-data-grid to work with React 15. The react-data-grid seems like a great library and I know loads of people will appreciate having it available in React 15.

I'm really keen to try out this 2.0 React 15 branch, so I have tried installing it by adding

"react-data-grid": "git+https://github.com/adazzle/react-data-grid.git#bd55afa",

to my package.json. I then deleted the node_modules/ directory, ran npm install again, and restarted my app, but I'm finding I get the following error message:

Failed to compile.

Error in ./~/react-data-grid/index.js
Module not found: ./dist/react-data-grid in /home/gareth/Code/ReactProjects/data-grid-test/node_modules/react-data-grid

@ ./~/react-data-grid/index.js 1:17-50

And indeed there is no dist/ directory at all in node_modules/react-data-grid/. I'm wondering if there is something simple I'm doing wrong here? Do I need to run some script to create this dist/ directory and the files that should be there?

Many thanks,

Gareth Williams

hey @gmjw -- unfortunately we're not quite ready for people to start trying V2 yet. it's still very early in development and currently contains breaking changes, so you'll need to wait a bit longer! sorry about that..

ps. you'll never have the built dist folder if you reference a specific commit as we don't include it in our source 🙂

Hi @jpdriver,
Thanks for your reply - ah I see, that makes sense now. Ok, no problem to wait a bit longer! Good luck with the changes and I look forward to trying out the updated version sometime (I would offer to help but to be honest I am very new to React/npm!)
