Feature Request: Append content to body tag attributes via Helmet
This is basically a request for the same feature that was requested in the original repo (https://github.com/nfl/react-helmet/issues/365) and is unlikely to be implemented here.
<>
<Helmet>
<body className='first-class' />
</Helmet>
<Helmet>
<body className='second-class' />
</Helmet>
</>
Should lead to <body className='first-class second-class'> and not <body className='second-class'>
I was wondering if this is something that could be implemented or if we should find another userland solution to handle that.
I can probably have multiple layers of <ApplyHtmlClassName> components, but if I can avoid it's better
Wouldn't this be out of scope for a component that's role is to amend the head of a dom?
For anyone who comes across this, the easy way to handle this is useEffect:
useEffect(() => {
document.body.classList.add('.my-class');
return () => document.body.classList.remove('.my-class');
}, []):
This will add the class when a given component mounts and remove it when it dismounts. You can use a similar pattern for any other DOM manipulation.
