How to change component's className according to its descendant's className in React?
I have a React App that results to the structure similar to this:
[EDIT.: this is not a source code (which is not simply in one component), but rendered html (I believe it's sufficient for describing the problem)]:
<Component1 className="main-component1">
<Something className="sub-component1"/>
<SomethingDifferent className="sub-component2"/>
<Something className="sub-component1"/>
</Component1>
<Component1 className="main-component1">
<SomethingDifferent className="sub-component2"/>
<SomethingDifferent className="sub-component2"/>
<div className="popup"/>
</SomethingDifferent>
<Something className="subComponent1"/>
</Component1>
.
.
.
the popup is rendered only in specific situations. And I would like to change the className of its top parent (Component1) to be className="main-component1 containsPopup". Any idea how to do that?
I was thinking about using Refs, but I wasn't able to find a suitable use in this case.
Another idea was just to use some query filter to find it, but that doesn't seem to me like a nice approach.
I will be glad for any ideas ^_^

"the popup is rendered only in specific situations." Is there any logic for that? Because with the current markup the popup is being always rendered.

Yeah, this was meant to be just an exemplary final html structure (not the generating code) to demonstrate it on something simple (whole code is huge).SomethingDifferentmight render for example some divs and an input and the popup is rendered only if that input is focussed.

Ok, because in that case you could reuse the logic for the rendering of the popup within the className string

How exactly please? I need to change the className only atComponent1that has thepopupas its descendant and not allComponent1. Right now I can think about solutions that would change tha className for whole Class and not just a specific instance :/

Ahh, ok, I thought first that the<Component1>is being generated by a.mapor something, but it's just manually placed multiple times
