Description

This extension provides support for the ReactJS framework.

In what situation should you install this extension?

If your Web application contains ReactJS source code and you want to view these object types and their links with other objects, then you should install this extension:

• creates HTML fragments, ReactJS applications,ReactJS components and ReactJS Forms.
• creates links between these objects.

ReactJS Application

This declaration will create a ReactJS application named App:

ReactDOM.render(
  <AppContainer>
    <Provider store={store}>
      <App version={appVersion} />
    </Provider>
  </AppContainer>,
  appElement
);

ReactJS Component

This declaration will create a ReactJS component named Sequence because the class inherits from Component. A component corresponds to a class which contains a render method. The render method is automatically called when the component is refered to in an HTML fragment:

import React, { Component } from 'react';
 
 class Sequence extends Component {
 
  shouldComponentUpdate(nextProps) {
    return this.props.positionFrom !== nextProps.positionFrom ||
      this.props.sequence !== nextProps.sequence ||
      this.props.nucleotidesPerRow !== nextProps.nucleotidesPerRow ||
      this.props.rowHeight !== nextProps.rowHeight;
  }
 
  render() {
    return (
      <g>
        {this.props.sequence.map((nucleotide, index) =>
          <Nucleotide
            type={nucleotide}
            position={this.props.positionFrom + index}
            key={index}
            index={index}
            onClick={this.props.onNucleotideClick}
            {...this.props}
          />,
        )}
      </g>
    );
  }
}

ReactJS Form

This declaration will create a ReactJS form named contact:

import React from 'react'
import { Field, reduxForm } from 'redux-form'

let ContactForm = props => {
  const { handleSubmit } = props
  return (
    <form onSubmit={handleSubmit}>
      <div>
        <label htmlFor="firstName">First Name</label>
        <Field name="firstName" component="input" type="text" />
      </div>
      <div>
        <label htmlFor="lastName">Last Name</label>
        <Field name="lastName" component="input" type="text" />
      </div>
      <div>
        <label htmlFor="email">Email</label>
        <Field name="email" component="input" type="email" />
      </div>
      <button type="submit">Submit</button>
    </form>
  )
}

ContactForm = reduxForm({
  // a unique name for the form
  form: 'contact'
})(ContactForm)

export default ContactFormrender() {
  return (
    <g>
      {this.props.sequence.map((nucleotide, index) =>
        <Nucleotide
          type={nucleotide}
          position={this.props.positionFrom + index}
          key={index}
          index={index}
          onClick={this.props.onNucleotideClick}
          {...this.props}
        />,
      )}
    </g>
  );
}

HTML fragment

This declaration will create a HTML fragment named render_fragment_1 starting with "<g>" and ending with "</g>". There can be several fragments in any function/method:

render() {
  return (
    <g>
      {this.props.sequence.map((nucleotide, index) =>
        <Nucleotide
          type={nucleotide}
          position={this.props.positionFrom + index}
          key={index}
          index={index}
          onClick={this.props.onNucleotideClick}
          {...this.props}
        />,
      )}
    </g>
  );
}

Function Point, Quality and Sizing support

This extension provides the following support:

• Function Points (transactions): a green tick indicates that OMG Function Point counting and Transaction Risk Index are supported
• Quality and Sizing: a green tick indicates that CAST can measure size and that a minimum set of Quality Rules exist

Function Points (transactions)	Quality and Sizing

CAST AIP compatibility

This extension is compatible with:

CAST AIP release	Supported
8.3.x
8.2.x
8.1.x
8.0.x
7.3.4 and all higher 7.3.x releases

Supported DBMS servers

This extension is compatible with the following DBMS servers:

CAST AIP release	CSS	Oracle	Microsoft
All supported releases

Prerequisites

An installation of any compatible release of CAST AIP (see table above)

Dependencies with other extensions

Some CAST extensions require the presence of other CAST extensions in order to function correctly. The ReactJS extension requires that the following other CAST extensions are also installed:

• HTML5/JavaScript
• Web Services Linker

Download and installation instructions

Packaging, delivering and analyzing your source code

Once the extension is downloaded and installed, you can nowpackage your source code and run an analysis. The process of packaging, delivering and analyzing your source code is described below:

What results can you expect?

Once the analysis/snapshot generation has completed, you can view the results in the normal manner:

Objects

The following objects are identified:

Links

Links from the ReactJS application

• A relyon link is created from the application to the HTML fragment of the application.
• A call link is created from the fragment to the ReactJS component refered to in the fragment
• A call link is created from the component to the render method of the class representing the component (as render method is automatically called).
• A call link is created from the render method to the fragment comtained inside the render method

Please remember that components are called mainly from html fragments, and render methods are implicitly called from ReactJS components.

Links from a HTML fragment

Many links are created from fragments, for example:

Click to enlarge:

HTML tags present in HTML fragments are linked to ReactJS components if they exist, or else a JavaScript function:

Click to enlarge:

HTML atribute values present in HTML fragments are linked to methods when they are represented between { ... }:

Click to enlarge:

When you have purely javascript code inside an html fragment, the javascript code is analyzed and you have links as you would have in conventional javascript code. You may also have javascript functions inside html fragments, in this case, functions are children of the html fragment.

Rules

None.
