Props

NameTypeDefaultDescription
childrennode-

The children to render into the container.

containerHTML element
| func
-

An HTML element or function that returns one. The container will have the portal children appended to it.
You can also provide a callback, which is called in a React layout effect. This lets you set the container from a ref, and also makes server-side rendering possible.
By default, it uses the body of the top-level document object, so it's simply document.body most of the time.

disablePortalboolfalse

The children will be under the DOM hierarchy of the parent component.


The component cannot hold a ref.
