React的Transaction浅析

1.两个示例

示例1

let SonClass = React.createClass({render: function(){console.log("render", this.props.num);return null;},componentDidMount: function(){console.log('componentDidMount', this.props.num);}
});let FatherClass = React.createClass({render:function(){return (<div><SonClass num="one" /><SonClass num="two" />      </div>)}
});ReactDOM.render( <FatherClass /> ,document.getElementById("test")
);

输出为
render 2
componentDidMount 2

示例2

let React = require('react');
let ReactDOM = require('react-dom');let Hello = React.createClass({getInitialState: function() {return {clicked: 0};},handleClick: function() {this.setState({clicked:this.state.clicked + 1});this.setState({clicked: this.state.clicked + 1});},render: function() {return <button onClick = {this.handleClick} > {this.state.clicked} </button>;}
});ReactDOM.render( <Hello /> ,document.getElementById("test")
);

点击后this.state.clicked递增1，而不是递增2。

2.解释

首先介绍React的Transaction。
其源码在React/lib/Transaction.js。
Transaction就是给需要执行的方法fn用wrapper封装了 initialize 和 close 方法。且支持多次封装。再通过 Transaction 提供的 perform 方法执行。 perform执行前，调用所有initialize 方法。perform 方法执行后，调用所有close方法。

Transaction的use case是

Preserving the input selection ranges before/after reconciliation.
Restoring selection even in the event of an unexpected error.
Deactivating events while rearranging the DOM, preventing blurs/focuses,
while guaranteeing that afterwards, the event system is reactivated.
Flushing a queue of collected DOM mutations to the main UI thread after a
reconciliation takes place in a worker thread.
Invoking any collected componentDidUpdate callbacks after rendering new
content.
(Future use case): Wrapping particular flushes of the ReactWorker queue
to preserve the scrollTop (an automatic scroll aware DOM).
(Future use case): Layout calculations before and after DOM updates.

示例一，对应的是第4点use case。整个生命周期就是一个Transaction，在Transaction执行期间，componentDidUpdate方法被推入一个队列中。DOM reconciliation后，再调用队列中的所有componentDidUpdate。

示例二，对应的是第3点use case。react的事件回调也是一个Transaction。handleClick里面的this.setState不会马上生效，而是先通过 ReactUpdates.batchedUpdate 方法存入临时队列。所以每次setState时，拿到的this.state.clicked都是初始值。直到transaction 完成，通过ReactUpdates.flushBatchedUpdates方法进行UI更新。
