How to use radio buttons in ReactJS?

Issue

I am new to ReactJS, sorry if this sounds off. I have a component that creates several table rows according to the received data.

Each cell within the column has a radio checkbox. Hence the user can select one site_name and one address from the existing rows. The selection shall be shown in the footer. And thats where I am stuck.

var SearchResult = React.createClass({
  render: function () {
    var resultRows = this.props.data.map(function (result) {
      return (
        <tbody>
          <tr>
            <td>
              <input type="radio" name="site_name" value={result.SITE_NAME}>
                {result.SITE_NAME}
              </input>
            </td>
            <td>
              <input type="radio" name="address" value={result.ADDRESS}>
                {result.ADDRESS}
              </input>
            </td>
          </tr>
        </tbody>
      );
    });
    return (
      <table className="table">
        <thead>
          <tr>
            <th>Name</th>
            <th>Address</th>
          </tr>
        </thead>
        {resultRows}
        <tfoot>
          <tr>
            <td>chosen site name ???? </td>
            <td>chosen address ????? </td>
          </tr>
        </tfoot>
      </table>
    );
  },
});

In jQuery I could do something like $("input[name=site_name]:checked").val() to get the selection of one radio checkbox type and insert it into the first footer cell.

But surely there must be a Reactjs way, which I am totally missing? Many Thanks

Solution

Any changes to the rendering should be change via the state or props (react doc).

So here I register the event of the input, and then change the state, which will then trigger the render to show on the footer.

var SearchResult = React.createClass({
  getInitialState: function () {
    return {
      site: '',
      address: '',
    };
  },
  onSiteChanged: function (e) {
    this.setState({
      site: e.currentTarget.value,
    });
  },

  onAddressChanged: function (e) {
    this.setState({
      address: e.currentTarget.value,
    });
  },

  render: function () {
    var resultRows = this.props.data.map(function (result) {
      return (
        <tbody>
          <tr>
            <td>
              <input
                type="radio"
                name="site_name"
                value={result.SITE_NAME}
                checked={this.state.site === result.SITE_NAME}
                onChange={this.onSiteChanged}
              />
              {result.SITE_NAME}
            </td>
            <td>
              <input
                type="radio"
                name="address"
                value={result.ADDRESS}
                checked={this.state.address === result.ADDRESS}
                onChange={this.onAddressChanged}
              />
              {result.ADDRESS}
            </td>
          </tr>
        </tbody>
      );
    }, this);
    return (
      <table className="table">
        <thead>
          <tr>
            <th>Name</th>
            <th>Address</th>
          </tr>
        </thead>
        {resultRows}
        <tfoot>
          <tr>
            <td>chosen site name {this.state.site} </td>
            <td>chosen address {this.state.address} </td>
          </tr>
        </tfoot>
      </table>
    );
  },
});
