* Support Document as a container for hydration and rendering
Previously Document was not handled effectively as a container. in particual when hydrating if there was a fallback to client rendering React would attempt to append a new <html> element into the document before clearing out the existing one which errored leaving the application in brokent state.
The initial approach I took was to recycle the documentElement and never remove or append it, always just moving it to the right fiber and appending the right children (heady/body) as needed. However in testing a simple approach in modern browsers it seems like treating the documentElement like any other element works fine. This change modifies the clearContainer method to remove the documentElement if the container is a DOCUMENT_NODE. Once the container is cleared React can append a new documentElement via normal means.
* Allow Document as container for createRoot
previously rendering into Document was broken and only hydration worked because React did not properly deal with the documentElement and would error in a broken state if used that way. With the previous commit addressing this limitation this change re-adds Document as a valid container for createRoot.
It should be noted that if you use document with createRoot it will drop anything a 3rd party scripts adds the page before rendering for the first time.
The internal Container type represents the types of containers that React
can support in its internals that deal with containers.
This didn't include DocumentFragment which we support specifically for
rendering into shadow roots.
However, not all types makes sense to pass into the createRoot API.
One of those is comment nodes that is deprecated and we don't really fully
support. It really only exists for FB legacy.
For createRoot it doesn't make sense to pass a Document since that will try
to empty the document which removes the HTML tag which doesn't work.
Documents can only be passed to hydrateRoot.
Conversely I'm not sure we actually support hydrating a shadow root properly
so I excluded DocumentFragment from hydrateRoot.
* Move createRoot/hydrateRoot to /client
We want these APIs ideally to be imported separately from things you
might use in arbitrary components (like flushSync). Those other methods
are "isomorphic" to how the ReactDOM tree is rendered. Similar to hooks.
E.g. importing flushSync into a component that only uses it on the client
should ideally not also pull in the entry client implementation on the
server.
This also creates a nicer parity with /server where the roots are in a
separate entry point.
Unfortunately, I can't quite do this yet because we have some legacy APIs
that we plan on removing (like findDOMNode) and we also haven't implemented
flushSync using a flag like startTransition does yet.
Another problem is that we currently encourage these APIs to be aliased by
/profiling (or unstable_testing). In the future you don't have to alias
them because you can just change your roots to just import those APIs and
they'll still work with the isomorphic forms. Although we might also just
use export conditions for them.
For that all to work, I went with a different strategy for now where the
real API is in / but it comes with a warning if you use it. If you instead
import /client it disables the warning in a wrapper. That means that if you
alias / then import /client that will inturn import the alias and it'll
just work.
In a future breaking changes (likely when we switch to ESM) we can just
remove createRoot/hydrateRoot from / and move away from the aliasing
strategy.
* Update tests to import from react-dom/client
* Fix fixtures
* Update warnings
* Add test for the warning
* Update devtools
* Change order of react-dom, react-dom/client alias
I think the order matters here. The first one takes precedence.
* Require react-dom through client so it can be aliased
