react-photo-gallery v8.0.0 Release Notes

Release Date: 2019-07-01 // almost 5 years ago
    • Gallery uses React.memo
    • 👉 Use hooks
    • ⚡️ Update examples
    • ⚡️ Update tests
    • ⬆️ Bump default limitNodeSearch to 2
    • 🔄 Change the way renderImage works. You now need to pass in your own key. The component is no longer wrapped in a div with a key.

    Possible breaking changes

    • ⚠ if your are using a custom component (renderImage prop), you may get a warning about keys. It could also stop interacting correctly with other libraries that use an HOC.
    • ⚡️ the Gallery uses React.memo. That means it does a shallow update of props. If you are mutating your photos array directly, it will no longer trigger a change. You will need to make sure your prop values are immutable if you want them to trigger Gallery updates.
