I am trying to set a simple search operation in a user interface as shown below:
I have a total of 70 react-strap cards and each card contain a vessel with name, type and an image. I would like to search the name of the vessel and have the card related to that vessel to pop-up. All my images are currently contained inside the external database Contentful. Below the fields of interests:
The problem is that I don't know how to write a search function that locate a specific value of a list.
Below the code:
SideBar.js
import React from 'react';
import Client from '../Contentful';
import SearchVessel from '../components/SearchVessel';
class Sidebar extends React.Component {
state = {
ships: [],
};
async componentDidMount() {
let response = await Client.getEntries({
content_type: 'cards'
});
const ships = response.items.map((item) => {
const {
name,
slug,
type
} = item.fields;
return {
name,
slug,
type
};
});
this.setState({
ships
});
}
getFilteredShips = () => {
if (!this.props.activeShip) {
return this.state.ships;
}
let targetShip = this.state.ships.filter(
(ship) => this.props.activeShip.name === ship.name
);
let otherShipsArray = this.state.ships.filter((ship) => this.props.activeShip.name !== ship.name);
return targetShip.concat(otherShipsArray);
};
render() {
return (
<div className="map-sidebar">
{this.props.activeShipTypes}
<SearchVessel />
<pre>
{this.getFilteredShips().map((ship) => {
console.log(ship);
return (
<Card className="mb-2">
<CardImg />
<CardBody>
<div className="row">
<img
className="image-sizing-primary"
src={ship.companylogo.fields.file.url}
alt="shipImage"
/>
</div>
<div>
<img
className="image-sizing-secondary"
src={ship.images.fields.file.url}
alt="shipImage"
/>
</div>
<CardTitle>
<h3 className="thick">{ship.name}</h3>
</CardTitle>
<CardSubtitle>{ship.type}</CardSubtitle>
<CardText>
<br />
<h6>Project Details</h6>
<p>For a description of the project view the specification included</p>
</CardText>
<Row style={{ marginTop: '20px' }}>
<div className="buttoncontainer">
<div className="btn btn-cards">
<a
className="buttonLink"
download
href={ship.projectnotes.fields.file.url}
>

</a>
</div>
<div className="btn btn-cards">
<a className="buttonLink" href={ship.abstract.fields.file.url}>
Abstract
</a>
</div>
</div>
</Row>
</CardBody>
</Card>
);
})}
</pre>
</div>
);
}
}
export default Sidebar;
VesselSearch.js
import React, { Component } from 'react';
export default class SearchVessel extends Component {
render() {
const { value, handleSubmit, handleChange } = this.props;
return (
<React.Fragment>
<div className="container">
<div className="row">
<div className="col-10 mx-auto col-md-8 mt-5 text-center">
<h4 className="text-slanted text-capitalize">Search for Vessel</h4>
<form className="mt-4" onSubmit={handleSubmit}>
<label htmlFor="search" className="text-capitalize">
type vessel separated by comma
</label>
<div className="input-group">
<input
type="text"
name="search"
placeholder="Type name of vessel here"
className="form-control"
value={value}
onChange={handleChange}
/>
<div className="input-group-append">
<button type="submit" className="input-group-text bg-primary text-white">
<i className="fas fa-search" />
</button>
</div>
</div>
</form>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</React.Fragment>
);
}
}
What I have done so far:
1) I tried different combination with the filter function and I think I am close. The problem is that when I operate the search nothing happens and in order to find the card of the vessel I want, I have to scroll down until I find it.
I am running out of ideas and if you see something I didn't catch point me in the right direction for solving this issue.
