VisualizaçõesAccess React Props & Functions via native Javascript
I'm studying how react currently works and am a bit confused how to access the functions that are hidden in the props with native javascript. I'm aware if I download the react extension I can view them in the google developer console but this is not what I need. I don't have access to the react components directly because I'm making a Google chrome extension.
For example in the Chrome Developer Console, I can type the following:
var elem = document.querySelector('.wrap-XdW9S1Ib');
Lets just say that this element is my element of interest and it has an onClick event within it's props that I would like to access to automate clicks for testing purposes.
Attached is a picture of the progress so far:
I can then type something like...
elem.__reactProps$63clhtkk874
Which shows the below:
Note you can see the onClick event and other functions that react creates.
Now... if you try to do this same thing via code. In particular the for(key in elem){console.log(key);} for some reason __reactFiber and __reactProps do not appear!
Note: Notice that align,title,lang etc... all show up but the __reactProps are not there now.
Note#2: My code is identical to what you see above in the pictures and works just fine printing out to console (as you can also see in the screenshot), except..., I just don't see the react events.
Why do these show up in the developer console and NOT in the same console via my code I write. In otherwords, when I type in the console prompt it not via non prompt (I.E, just regular .js file)

I'm just guessing over here. But judging from the underscores you are probably accessing elements from React's internal virtual DOM. Which may or may not be the same as the DOM. I've read that React was built for the purpose of abstracting away the imperative DOM manipulation that vanilla javascript uses.
Though sometimes interacting with the DOM cannot be avoided, so whenever I see DOM manipulation in React, I think of the useRef hook. By setting the useRef hook to a variable and linking it to a DOM element, you can console.log variable.current, and see the real DOM element and work with it in a useEffect hook for example. Hope this was at least a little helpful! All the best in your learning endeavors!
