How To Insert A Dropdown Using React Js

Here is my code and i wanted to insert a dropdown using React JS I tried and did that but that's not the right way or that's not the way to apply dropdown so how to deal with that

Solution 1:

How don't need a individual handle function for each Dropdowntype, rather than that pass an identifier to a onChange function which does the job for you. Also tin your constructor you should be defining all the state variables in a single this.state ad not create multiple state variables. I hope this helps

import React, { Component } from 'react';
import { Link } from 'react-router'
import { Dropdown, DropdownMenu, DropdownItem, Progress } from 'reactstrap';
import Session from 'redux-react-session';
import BeaconSettings from '../BeaconSettings';
class NewBeacon extends Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);
    this.state = {inputname: '',
    inputdescription: '' ,
    inputzone: '' ,
    inputstore: '' ,
    inputfloor: '',
    dropdownZone: false,
    dropdownStore: false,
    dropdownFloor: false,
    data:[
                {name:"Nikko Laus1"},
                {name:"Sam Collins"},
                {name:"Carl Smith Wesson"}
            ],
            store:[
                {name:"abcd"},
                {name:"Sam Collins"},
                {name:"Carl Smith Wesson"}   
            ],
            floor:[
                {name:"Ist"},
                {name:"IInd"},
                {name:"IIIrd"}   
            ]
    };
    this.handleName = this.handleName.bind(this);
    this.handleDescription = this.handleDescription.bind(this);
    this.handleSubmit = this.handleSubmit.bind(this);
    this.handleChange = this.handleChange.bind(this);
    this.toggleDropdown = this.toggleDropdown.bind(this);
    // alert("hey");


  }
static contextTypes = {
  router: React.PropTypes.object.isRequired
}
handleSubmit(event){

    alert('Submitted: ' + this.state.inputname + this.state.inputdescription + this.state.inputzone + this.state.inputstore + this.state.inputfloor);
    event.preventDefault();
    this.context.router.push('/components/BeaconSettings');
  }
  toggleDropdown(dropType) {
       this.setState({[dropType]: !this.state[dropType]})
  }


  handleName(event) {

    this.setState({inputname: event.target.value});
  }
  handleDescription(event){
    this.setState({inputdescription: event.target.value});
  }
  handleChange(event, type) {
    this.setState({[type]: event.target.value});  
  }

    let Store = this.state.store.map(person =>
