React TextBox - Overview
The TextBox is a UI component that enables a user to enter and edit a single line of text.
The following code adds a simple TextBox with a placeholder to your page.
- import React from 'react';
- import 'devextreme/dist/css/dx.common.css';
- import 'devextreme/dist/css/dx.light.css';
- import { TextBox } from 'devextreme-react/text-box';
- class App extends React.Component {
- render() {
- return (
- <TextBox
- placeholder="Type a text here..."
- />
- );
- }
- }
- export default App;
If an end user should not be able to edit the value in the TextBox, assign true to the readOnly property. In this case, make sure to set the value property too.
- import React from 'react';
- import 'devextreme/dist/css/dx.common.css';
- import 'devextreme/dist/css/dx.light.css';
- import { TextBox } from 'devextreme-react/text-box';
- class App extends React.Component {
- render() {
- return (
- <TextBox
- readOnly={true}
- defaultValue="The value that should not be edited"
- />
- );
- }
- }
- export default App;
