React Table with Material UI context menu

1
votes

I am having trouble getting the Material UI Menu to work with React Table@v6.
I want to be able to right-click anywhere in the table (row, td) and show a context menu. This part is working.
But I also want to be able to continuously right-click other locations in the table and always show the context menu the cursor location. This is not working. Currently, you have to click-away to close the menu and then right-click again to re-open the menu.
In the Material UI demo this is working fine:
https://material-ui.com/components/menus/#context-menu

I adopted the example above to work with React Table, but it's not quite working as expected.

My example adoption:
https://codesandbox.io/s/aged-leaf-0nf6b?file=/src/index.js

Any Ideas how to get this to work as in the example?

This is because you added onContextMenu props to Td, not the table container.

Move onContext Menu to container div, like this:

<div onContextMenu={(e) => {
        e.preventDefault();
        console.log("context menu");
        this.setState({
          mouseX: e.clientX - 2,
          mouseY: e.clientY - 4
        });
      }}>

And it should work.

Enjoy!

I ended up creating a popper context menu to replicate all the material-ui behavior for menus.

import React from "react";
import Popper from "@material-ui/core/Popper";
import Typography from "@material-ui/core/Typography";
import MenuList from "@material-ui/core/MenuList";
import MenuItem from "@material-ui/core/MenuItem";
import Paper from "@material-ui/core/Paper";
import { makeStyles } from "@material-ui/core/styles";
import { ClickAwayListener, Fade } from "@material-ui/core";

/* copied from https://github.com/mui-org/material-ui/blob/v4.3.2/packages/material-ui/src/Menu/Menu.js#L21 */
const useMenuStyles = makeStyles({
  /* Styles applied to the `Paper` component. */
  paper: {
    // specZ: The maximum height of a simple menu should be one or more rows less than the view
    // height. This ensures a tapable area outside of the simple menu with which to dismiss
    // the menu.
    maxHeight: "calc(100% - 96px)",
    // Add iOS momentum scrolling.
    WebkitOverflowScrolling: "touch"
  },
  /* Styles applied to the `List` component via `MenuList`. */
  list: {
    // We disable the focus ring for mouse, touch and keyboard users.
    outline: 0
  }
});

export default function FakedReferencePopper() {
  const [open, setOpen] = React.useState(false);
  const [anchorEl, setAnchorEl] = React.useState<null | any>(null);

  const handleClose = () => {
    setOpen(false);
  };

  const handleContextMenu = (e) => {
    e.preventDefault();
    const { clientX, clientY } = e;
    setOpen(true);
    const virtualElement = {
      getBoundingClientRect: () => ({
        width: 0,
        height: 0,
        top: clientY,
        right: clientX,
        bottom: clientY,
        left: clientX
      })
    };
    setAnchorEl(virtualElement);
  };

  const id = open ? "faked-reference-popper" : undefined;
  const menuClasses = useMenuStyles();
  return (
    <div>
      <div onContextMenu={handleContextMenu}>
        <Typography aria-describedby={id}>
