[WIP] Update lifecycle methods for newer React #261

Closed StorytellerCZ closed 5 years ago

StorytellerCZ commented 6 years ago

Starting on a fix for #252 and #256 (and maybe #242) Sadly it isn't as easy as replacing it with the recommended new methods (in short that breaks everything). Moving componentWillMount functionality to constructor fixes that part, but componentWillUpdate has no easy backward compatible solution. So at least I'm presenting here this half fix and hopefully I can figure out something later or someone else can finish what I started. :thinking:

You can just do the work in render instead of componentWillUpdate. ;-)

The hooks implementation in #262 actually takes care of this for React 16.8+, so there's probably not a whole lot of reason to mess with the old withTracker version, which will continue to work for React 16.7 and lower.

Well, this has been superseded by much better PRs.
