Access wrapped component

Hi, is it possible to access wrapped component such as:

const Universal = universal(() => import('MyComponent'))

// after some time, I need to do some actions based on static properties of the original component
if (Universal.wrappedComponent && Universal.wrappedComponent.doSomething) {
  // do something
}

// I cannot rely on hoisting, because the imported component may not have that static declared
if (Universal.doSomething) // I can't be sure if the static is missing or if the component has not yet loaded

I know about the callbacks, I was just wondering if there is a shorter way for this… Thanks!

I’m currently working on some much desired Webpack 4 upgrades for the universal family. After that’s done, I can try and look into this, if you have the drive to lay the groundwork on the refs related stuff- we can try to collaborate on it.

There’s a lot happening with Some big upgrades that we are gonna release, time constraints are hard to manage 😋

@EdonGashi That helps, but react-universal-component itself would need to (and should) implement the forwardRef API to pass along refs to components it wraps. There’s never any need to access the universal component itself via a ref assignment.
