react-websocket is a easy-to-use React component for websocket communications.

Things here are running very slowly as I have a lot of other stuff to take care at the moment so please don't be upset if I don't answer your question or if a PR sits unreviewed for a few days or weeks. Anyone interested in helping it move faster can help by submitting or reviewing PR's and answering each other's questions.

npm install --save react-websocket

  import React from 'react';
  import Websocket from 'react-websocket';

  class ProductDetail extends React.Component {

    constructor(props) {
      super(props);
      this.state = {
        count: 90
      };
    }

    handleData(data) {
      let result = JSON.parse(data);
      this.setState({count: this.state.count + result.movement});
    }

    render() {
      return (
        <div>
          Count: <strong>{this.state.count}</strong>

          <Websocket url='ws://localhost:8888/live/product/12345/'
              onMessage={this.handleData.bind(this)}/>
        </div>
      );
    }
  }
