在React中，道具和状态之间有一些关键的区别。道具是不可变的——一旦设置好，就不能更改。另一方面，状态可以在任何时候改变。道具也从父组件传递给子组件，而状态是单个组件的局部状态。

Basically, props and state are two ways the component can know what and how to render. Which part of the application state belongs to state and which to some top-level store, is more related to your app design, than to how React works. The simplest way to decide, IMO, is to think, whether this particular piece of data is useful for application as a whole, or it's some local information. Also, it's important to not duplicate state, so if some piece of data can be calculated from props - it should calculated from props.

For example, let's say you have some dropdown control (which wraps standart HTML select for custom styling), which can a) select some value from list, and b) be opened or closed (i.e., the options list displayed or hidden). Now, let's say your app displays a list of items of some sort and your dropdown controls filter for list entries. Then, it would be best to pass active filter value as a prop, and keep opened/closed state local. Also, to make it functional, you would pass an onChange handler from parent component, which would be called inside dropdown element and send updated information (new selected filter) to the store immediately. On the other hand, opened/closed state can be kept inside dropdown component, because the rest of the application doesn't really care if the control is opened, until user actually changes it value.

下面的代码是不完全工作，它需要css和处理下拉单击/模糊/改变事件，但我想保持示例最小。希望这有助于理解其中的区别。

const _store = {
    items: [
    { id: 1, label: 'One' },
    { id: 2, label: 'Two' },
    { id: 3, label: 'Three', new: true },
    { id: 4, label: 'Four', new: true },
    { id: 5, label: 'Five', important: true },
    { id: 6, label: 'Six' },
    { id: 7, label: 'Seven', important: true },
    ],
  activeFilter: 'important',
  possibleFilters: [
    { key: 'all', label: 'All' },
    { key: 'new', label: 'New' },
    { key: 'important', label: 'Important' }
  ]
}

function getFilteredItems(items, filter) {
    switch (filter) {
    case 'all':
        return items;

    case 'new':
        return items.filter(function(item) { return Boolean(item.new); });

    case 'important':
        return items.filter(function(item) { return Boolean(item.important); });

    default:
        return items;
  }
}

const App = React.createClass({
  render: function() {
    return (
            <div>
            My list:

            <ItemList   items={this.props.listItems} />
          <div>
            <Dropdown 
              onFilterChange={function(e) {
                _store.activeFilter = e.currentTarget.value;
                console.log(_store); // in real life, some action would be dispatched here
              }}
              filterOptions={this.props.filterOptions}
              value={this.props.activeFilter}
              />
          </div>
        </div>
      );
  }
});

const ItemList = React.createClass({
  render: function() {
    return (
      <div>
        {this.props.items.map(function(item) {
          return <div key={item.id}>{item.id}: {item.label}</div>;
        })}
      </div>
    );
  }
});

const Dropdown = React.createClass({
    getInitialState: function() {
    return {
        isOpen: false
    };
  },

  render: function() {
    return (
        <div>
            <select 
            className="hidden-select" 
          onChange={this.props.onFilterChange}
          value={this.props.value}>
            {this.props.filterOptions.map(function(option) {
            return <option value={option.key} key={option.key}>{option.label}</option>
          })}
        </select>

        <div className={'custom-select' + (this.state.isOpen ? ' open' : '')} onClick={this.onClick}>
            <div className="selected-value">{this.props.activeFilter}</div>
          {this.props.filterOptions.map(function(option) {
            return <div data-value={option.key} key={option.key}>{option.label}</div>
          })}
        </div>
      </div>
    );
  },

  onClick: function(e) {
    this.setState({
        isOpen: !this.state.isOpen
    });
  }
});

ReactDOM.render(
  <App 
    listItems={getFilteredItems(_store.items, _store.activeFilter)} 
    filterOptions={_store.possibleFilters}
    activeFilter={_store.activeFilter}
    />,
  document.getElementById('root')
);

State是你的数据，是可变的，你可以对它做任何你需要的事情，props是只读数据，通常当你传递props时，你已经使用了你的数据，你需要子组件来渲染它，或者如果你的props是一个函数，你调用它来执行任务

大多数时候，你的子组件是无状态的，这意味着它们代表了它的父组件给它的数据/信息。

另一方面，状态处理的是处理组件本身，状态可以在组件内部通过setState和useState钩子改变。

例如

class Parent extends Component{
  constructor(props){
    super(props);
    this.state = {
      fruit: 'apple'
    }
    this.handleChange = this.handleChange.bind(this)
  }

  handleChange(){
    this.setState({fruit: 'mango'})
  }
  render(){
    return (
      <div>
      <Child  fruit={this.state.fruit} />
      <button onClick={this.handleChange}>Change state</button>
      </div>
    )
  }
}

当点击按钮时，父类将其状态从apple更改为mango，并将其状态作为道具传递给子组件。现在，没有状态的子组件根据父组件的状态显示不同的标题。

class Child extends Component{

  render(){
    return(
      <h1>I have received a prop {this.props.fruit}</h1>
    )
  }
}

所以在根级别上，道具是父进程与子进程的通信，而状态是描述父进程的情况等。

State:具有内部值，这意味着只在该类组件中有效，因此不能将其传递给另一个组件。

道具:另一方面，你可以将道具从父对象传递给子对象或从子对象传递给父对象。

state -这是一个特殊的可变属性，保存组件数据。它在Componet挂载时具有默认值。

props -这是一个特殊的属性，本质上是不可变的，用于从父到子的值传递。props只是组件之间的通信通道，总是从顶部(父组件)移动到底部(子组件)。

下面是结合状态和道具的完整示例
