v3 upgrade guide #3585
Description
The core motivation behind 3.0.0 is to set us up to leverage new tools to make react-select better. We've also made some As such we've made the following changes:
Breaking Changes
- Upgrade from Emotion 9 to Emotion 10
- UMD builds deprecated
- Multiple Entrypoints
- React 16.8 required as peer dependencies
- Normalized Values 3.x Normalise value removal #3416
What this means for you
Emotion 10
Moving to the latest major version of emotion affords us zero-config SSR and enabling easier CSP support. Unfortunately this will be a breaking change for consumers who are currently leveraging emotion to build custom components for react-select. For example, you'd previously create an custom Option component with emotion like so:
import { css } from 'emotion'
const customOption = ({ cx, className, getStyles, _ }) =>
<div
classNames={cx(
css(getStyles('option', props)),
{
'option': true,
'option--is-disabled': isDisabled,
'option--is-focused': isFocused,
'option--is-selected': isSelected,
},
className
)}
{...}
>With react-select 3.0.0, and emotion 10 it would be the following:
/** @jsx jsx */
import { jsx } from '@emotion/core';
const customOption = ({ cx, className, getStyles, _ }) =>
<div
css={getStyles('option', props)}
classNames={cx(
{
'option': true,
'option--is-disabled': isDisabled,
'option--is-focused': isFocused,
'option--is-selected': isSelected,
},
className
)}
{...}
>Multiple Entrypoints:
v3.0.0 separates removes the following components from the main entry point, and instead exports them as separate entrypoints:
- Async (now exported from react-select/async)
- Creatable (now exported from react-select/creatable)
- Async Creatable (now exported from react-select/async-creatable)
- makeAnimated and default animated components (now exported from react-select/animated)
Where you’d previously import them as such
import { Async } from 'react-select' Or as:
import Async from 'react-select/lib/Async'Now imports look like this:
import AsyncSelect from 'react-select/async'This should have no bundle-size impact on react-select consumers currently leveraging tree-shaking. However for consumers who aren’t leveraging tree-shaking, this should help alleviate some of the bundle-weight.
UMD Builds
UMD builds have been removed as of react-select v3.
Peer dependency on React 16.8
We've decided on requiring 16.8 as a peer dependency for react-select 3.0.0. This is motivated by our commitment to leveraging the improvements in recent versions of React such as hooks to make react-select even better.
Normalized Values
At the moment, if no value is specified by the consumer, it's instantiated as a null value, regardless of whether the select isMulti or not.
When isMulti is false this is fine. On selection of an option, the value becomes an object, and on clearing of said value, it returns to being null. (null --> {} --> null)
However when isMulti is true, this becomes more inconsistent. On selection of options, the value becomes an array of options, removing values extricates them from this array, removing the last selected value results in an empty array, instead of the initial base state of null.
(null --> [{}] --> [])
We rectify this in 3.0.0, on removal of all selected values in an isMulti Select, the value passed to onChange is null and not [].

Would be awesome if you could update typings for this too. Currently don't believe I can import like so:
import AsyncSelect from 'react-select/async'iraSenthil commentedon Jun 24, 2019
Is there anyways we could link this in release notes?
I usually look at release notes to figure out breaking changes before upgrading.
Methuselah96 commentedon Jun 26, 2019
@carlreid I made a PR to update the types: DefinitelyTyped/DefinitelyTyped#36464.

Hey @gwyneplaine @JedWatson, do you guys think you could also update https://github.com/JedWatson/react-input-autosize to be for react 16.8? There are a few issues with the newly deprecated functions (i.e. componentWillReceiveProps)
Issue here:

Can you explain how CSP support has been added? I can't find any documentation on how to configure the nonce within the control.
naniantero commentedon Oct 1, 2019
@samjosephgates You need to wrap your selects with NonceProvider, which you can import from react-select. Just provide your nonce to it as a prop. At least that's how I got it working. It's not documented anywhere, tho..

Why were the UMD builds deprecated and how can I run v3 in browser?
shurygindv commentedon Nov 18, 2019
is there an approximate release date of a fix? We need this!
React 16.12has a lit bit incompatible changes in typingsIn React.16.8 (react-select uses it)
but in the same time React 16.12
diff in
relatedTarget: EventTarget | null;in principle, I generally can't migrate on React 16.12 due different scheduler react versions
deybith commentedon Apr 28, 2020
How to use nonce with the new version ? I can't see in anywhere.
@naniantero can you explain how do you do more in detail.
Thanks

Why did the UMD build gets deprecated? How can you use
react-selectdirectly from a CDN like Unpkg now?corysimmons commentedon Jun 22, 2020
react-select now blows up console with deprecation warnings from react. :(
bladey commentedon Jun 23, 2020
Hey @corysimmons, we're aiming to get this addressed soon - #4094
corysimmons commentedon Jun 23, 2020
@bladey Awesome, thanks for the update and all your hard work!
ConradSollitt commentedon Oct 19, 2020
Can UMD Version still be kept? Does keeping it cause any problems or prevent new features?
I think having a UMD is still useful. For example I created a demo of using the UMD version at the following site and would like the have the option in the future. If not I'll just plan on linking to the older version before UMD is deprecated.
