Adding script tag to React/JSX

Question

I have a relatively straightforward issue of trying to add inline scripting to a React component. What I have so far:

\'use strict\';

import \'../../styles/         


        

Answer 1

There is a very nice workaround using Range.createContextualFragment.

/**
 * Like React's dangerouslySetInnerHTML, but also with JS evaluation.
 * Usage:
 *   

 */
function setDangerousHtml(html, el) {
    if(el === null) return;
    const range = document.createRange();
    range.selectNodeContents(el);
    range.deleteContents();
    el.appendChild(range.createContextualFragment(html));
}

This works for arbitrary HTML and also retains context information such as document.currentScript.
