I\'m new to using ES6 classes with React, previously I\'ve been binding my methods to the current object (show in first example), but does ES6 allow me to permanently bind a
You are using arrow function and also binding it in constructor. So you no need to do binding when you use arrow functions
class SomeClass extends React.Component {
handleInputChange = (val) => {
console.log('selectionMade: ', val);
}
}
OR you need to bind a function only in constructor when you use normal function like below
class SomeClass extends React.Component {
constructor(props){
super(props);
this.handleInputChange = this.handleInputChange.bind(this);
}
handleInputChange(val){
console.log('selectionMade: ', val);
}
}
Also binding a function directly in render is not recommended. It should always be in constructor
