resq (REact Selector Query)

Requirements

• React v16 or higher
• Node 8 or higher

This library tries to implement something similar to querySelector and querySelectorAll, but through the React VirtualDOM. You can query for React composite elements or HTML elements.

Though the main use of this library is for E2E testing, it can be used in any almost any scenario

Example

import React from "react";
import ReactDOM from "react-dom";
import { waitToLoadReact, resq$, resq$$ } from "resq";

(async () => {
  try {
    await waitToLoadReact(2000)
    const myComponentInstance = resq$("MyComponent");
    console.log("component instance", myComponentInstance);
    /**
     * outputs:
     {
         name: 'MyComponent',
         node: null,
         isFragment: false,
         state: {},
         props: {},
         children: [
             {
                 name: 'div',
                 node: <div>MyComponent</div>
                 state: {},
                 props: {},
                 children: [
                     {
                         node: null,
                         props: 'MyComponent',
                         state: {},
                         name: null,
                         children: []
                     }
                 ],
             }
         ]
     }
     */

  } catch (error) {
    console.warn('resq error', error);
  }
})();
const MyComponent = () => (
  <div>MyComponent</div>
);

const App = () => (
  <div>
    <MyComponent />
  </div>
);

ReactDOM.render(<App />, document.querySelector("#root"));

$ npm install --save resq

Or

$ yarn add resq

Usage

• Using resq$ to select first instance of query
• Using resq$$ to select all matching elements in query
• Filter results with byProps and byState doc
• Understanding how to select React.Fragments vs Wrapped JSX
