How do I render canvas in React js?


I could render it in HTML but React has a different syntax which i cannot find, can you please help. Unable to render it in react - displays blank page.

Working HTML code - https://jsfiddle.net/me6s8q2g/176/

The data is live spo2 wave amplitude number from the sensor. Please refer the HTML jsfiddle code to understand the code and animation.

This is my code:

import React from 'react';
import {useEffect, useState} from 'react';


 function Spo2() {
     var EcgData=[ "3700,4800,5900,6700,7400,7700,7800,7700,7600,7400,7200,7100,7000,7000,7000,7000,7100,7100,7100,7000,6800,6600,6300,6000,5800,5500,5300,5100,4900,4800,4600,4500,4300,4100,3900,3700,3500,3300,3100,2900,2800,2600,2500,2300,2300,2500,3000,3600,4600,5600,6700,7600,8200,8600,8800,8800,8600,8400,8200,7900,7700,7500,7400,7400,7400,7500,7500,7400,7300,7100,6800,6500,6200,5800,5500,5200,4900,4700,4500,4400,4200,4100,3900,3800,3600,3400,3200,3200,3300,3800,4500,5500,6700,7800,8700,9400,9500,9500,9400,9200,8900,8600,8400,8200,8000,7900,7900,7900,7900,7800,7700,7500,7200,6800,6400,6100,5700,5400,5100,4800,4600,4500,4300,4100,3900,3800,3600,3300,3100,2900,2600,2300,2100,1900,1900,2200,2800,3800,5000,6300,7600,8600,9300,9500,9500,9400,9100,8900,8600,8300,8100,8000,7900,7900,7900,7900,7800,7700,7500,7200,6800,6400,6100,5700,5400,5100,4900,4600,4500,4300,4100,3900,3700,3500,3200,3000,2700,2400,2100,1900,1700,1400,1200,1000,900,700,800,1100,1700,2600,3800,5100,6300,7400,8100,8400,8500,8400,8200,7900,7600,7400,7200,7000,7000,7000,7000,7000,6800,6300,5900,4800,4400,4200,3900,3700,3500,3300,3200,3000,2800,2500,2300,2000,1800,1500,1200,1000,700,500,500,500,500,500,500,500,500,500,500,500,500,500,500,500,500,500,800,1400,2200,3300,4400,5500,6400,7100,7500,7600,7600,7500,7400,7300,7200,7100,7000,7000,7100,7100,7100,7100,7100,6900,6800,6500,6300,6000,5700,5500,5300,5100,4900,4800,4600,4500,4400,4200,4000,3800,3600,3400,3200,3000,2800,2600,2400,2300,2100,1900,1800,1600,1500,1400,1200,1100,1000,900,800,700,800,1200,1800,2800,3900,5100,6300,7200,7800,8100,8200,8100,7900,7700,7500,7300,7200,7200,7300,7400,7500,7500,7600,7500,7400,7200,6900,6600,6200,5900,5600,5400,5200,5100,4900,4800,4700,4600,4500,4300,4100,3800,3600,3300,3100"

Solution

  • You are not using the correct id in your document.getElementById() call. It should be document.getElementById('canvas'), as you have given the canvas element an id of 'canvas'.
