Topic: how to get MDBInput value?
Ominous Vibes pro premium priority asked 3 years ago
Title says it all. Is there any getValue event on mdb5? instead of the onChanged event.

Hi!
There are only two ways to get the input value.
Uncontrolled input - the only way to get the value is to use an onChange event.
import React, { useState } from "react";
import { MDBInput } from "mdb-react-ui-kit";
function App() {
return <MDBInput onChange={(e) => console.log(e.target.value)} />;
}
export default App;
Controlled input - you can use an useState hook to achieve that.
import React, { useState, useEffect } from 'react';
import { MDBInput } from 'mdb-react-ui-kit';
function App() {
const [inputValue, setInputValue] = useState('');
useEffect(() => {
console.log(inputValue);
}, [inputValue]);
return (
<MDBInput value={inputValue} onChange={(e) => setInputValue(e.target.value)} />
);
}
export default App;
The getValue
method is only used in the MDBSelect
component due to its complicated structure.
Keep coding!
