Anyone managing focus in reagent with success? I.e. set the focus programmatically without the use of IDs

@lancefalcon: what's wrong with IDs ?

mccraigmccraig: makes my components non-reusable

@lancefalcon: when i need an id, i use a form-2 component, with (let [my-id (gensym "blahblah-")] ...) in the outer function

oh, gensym works at runtime as well?

yup

that'll work, thanks a lot

gensym nice one thnx

@lancefalcon [:input {:autofocus true ...} ....] will set focus the first time it renders

or is that auto-focus ?

something like that

Yeah, {:auto-focus true} has been working fine for me.

@lancefalcon you can use dom-node instead of an id a lot of the time, and if you want it past the first render, you can use a lifecycle hook: https://github.com/tastejs/todomvc/blob/master/examples/reagent/src/cljs/todomvc/components/todo_edit.cljs
