Creating React Application And Installing Module:

Step 1: Create a React application using the following command:

npx create-react-app foldername

Step 2: After creating your project folder i.e. foldername, move to it using the following command:

cd foldername

Step 3: After creating the ReactJS application, Install the required module using the following command:

npm install reactstrap bootstrap

Project Structure: It will look like the following.

Project Structure

Example 1: Now write down the following code in the App.js file. Here we have shown the Modal with a delay of 2 seconds and we have shown Modal without ModalHeader and ModalFooter.

Javascript

import React from 'react'
import 'bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css';
import {
    Button, Modal, ModalFooter,
    ModalHeader, ModalBody
} from "reactstrap"

function App() {

    // Modal open state
    const [modal, setModal] = React.useState(false);

    // Toggle for Modal
    const toggle = () => setModal(!modal);

    return (
        <div style={{
            display: 'block', width: 700, padding: 30
        }}>
            <h4>ReactJS Reactstrap Modal Component</h4>
            <Button color="primary"
                onClick={toggle}>Open Modal</Button>
            <Modal isOpen={modal}
                toggle={toggle}
                modalTransition={{ timeout: 2000 }}>
                <ModalBody>
                    Simple Modal with just ModalBody...
                </ModalBody>
            </Modal>
        </div >
    );
}

export default App;

Step to Run Application: Run the application using the following command from the root directory of the project:

npm start

Output: Now open your browser and go to http://localhost:3000/, you will see the following output:

Example 2: Now write down the following code in the App.js file. Here we have shown the Modal without any delay and we have shown Modal with ModalHeader and ModalFooter.

Javascript

import React from 'react'
import 'bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css';
import {
    Button, Modal, ModalFooter,
    ModalHeader, ModalBody
} from "reactstrap"

function App() {

    // Modal open state
    const [modal, setModal] = React.useState(false);

    // Toggle for Modal
    const toggle = () => setModal(!modal);

    return (
        <div style={{
            display: 'block', width: 700, padding: 30
        }}>
            <h4>ReactJS Reactstrap Modal Component</h4>
            <Button color="danger"
                onClick={toggle}>Click me to open Modal</Button>
            <Modal isOpen={modal} toggle={toggle}>
                <ModalHeader
                    toggle={toggle}>Sample Modal Title</ModalHeader>
                <ModalBody>
                    Sample Modal Body Text to display...
                </ModalBody>
                <ModalFooter>
                    <Button color="primary" onClick={toggle}>Okay</Button>
                </ModalFooter>
            </Modal>
        </div >
    );
}

export default App;
