Animate antizer table with rc-animate in re-frame app - clojurescript

Question

I am trying to recreate the example in http://react-component.github.io/table/examples/animation.html to add animation to a table in a re-frame app. The table is rendered using antizer which is a ClojureScript library for Ant Design react components. For the animation I'm trying to use rc-animate (as in the example) which is a JavaScript library.
To integrate rc-animate, I followed the official Webpack guide and created a src/js/index.js file:
import Animate from 'rc-animate';
window.Animate = Animate;
My project.clj is:
(defproject ant-table-animation "0.1.0-SNAPSHOT"
:dependencies [[org.clojure/clojure "1.8.0"]
[org.clojure/clojurescript "1.10.238"]
[reagent "0.8.1"]
[re-frame "0.10.5" :exclusions [reagent]]
[antizer "0.3.1"]]
:plugins [[lein-cljsbuild "1.1.7"]]
:min-lein-version "2.5.3"
:source-paths ["src/clj" "src/cljs"]
:clean-targets ^{:protect false} ["resources/public/js/compiled" "target"]
:figwheel {:css-dirs ["resources/public/css"]}
:profiles
{:dev
{:dependencies [[binaryage/devtools "0.9.10"]
[cider/piggieback "0.3.9"]
[figwheel-sidecar "0.5.16"]
[day8.re-frame/re-frame-10x "0.3.3"]]
:plugins [[lein-figwheel "0.5.16"]]}
:prod { }
}
:cljsbuild
{:builds

:source-paths ["src/cljs"]
:figwheel {:on-jsload "ant-table-animation.core/mount-root"}
:compiler {:closure-defines {re-frame.trace.trace_enabled_QMARK_ true}
:main ant-table-animation.core

:foreign-libs [{:file "dist/index_bundle.js"
:provides ["rc-animate" "rc-animate-child"]
:global-exports {rc-animate Animate
rc-animate-child AnimateChild}}]
}}
{:id "min"
:source-paths ["src/cljs"]
:compiler {:main ant-table-animation.core
:output-to "resources/public/js/compiled/app.js"
:optimizations :advanced
:closure-defines {goog.DEBUG false}
:pretty-print false}}
]}
)
and in my views.cljs I try to render the table like this:
(ns ant-table-animation.views
(:require
[re-frame.core :as re-frame]
[ant-table-animation.subs :as subs]
[ant-table-animation.events :as events]
[antizer.reagent :as ant]
[reagent.core :as reagent]
[rc-animate]
))
(.log js/console rc-animate)
(defn AnimateBody
[props]
(.createElement
js/React
rc-animate
(.assign js/Object #js {:transitionName "move", :component "tbody"} props)))
(.log js/console AnimateBody)
(defn orders
[]
(let [orders #(re-frame/subscribe [::subs/orders])
width 80]
[ant/table
{:columns
[{:title "Product Name" :dataIndex :product :width width}
{:title "Quantity" :dataIndex :quantity :width width}
{:title "Unit Price" :dataIndex :price :width width}
{:title "Actions" :dataIndex "actions" :width width
:render
#(reagent/as-element
[ant/button
{:icon "delete" :type "danger"
:on-click
(fn []
(re-frame/dispatch [::events/order-deleted (.-product %2)]))}])}]
:dataSource orders
:size "small"
:components {:body {:wrapper AnimateBody}}
:pagination {:page-size 20}
:scroll {:y 300}}]))
(defn main-panel []
(let [name (re-frame/subscribe [::subs/name])]
[:div
[:h1 "Hello from " #name]
[orders]
]))
I am not sure at all about the
(defn AnimateBody
[props]
(.createElement
js/React
rc-animate
(.assign js/Object #js {:transitionName "move", :component "tbody"} props)))
being equivalent to the line from the example
const AnimateBody = props => <Animate transitionName="move" component="tbody" {...props} />;
The table renders correctly, but when I try to delete a row it fails with the following error trace:

It is also indicated that:

I am a Clojure beginner, and I know even less for React; this is where I ended up after a week of trying but now I feel stuck. I have uploaded my project in github for anyone that would like to give it a try.

The Unable to find node on an unmounted component error was occurring because of version issues with React. I was able to handle it by explicitly using the version of React used by the rc-animate library - 16.5.2 in my project.clj:
...
[reagent "0.8.1" :exclusions [cljsjs/react cljsjs/react-dom [cljsjs/react-dom-server]]]
[cljsjs/react "16.5.2-0"]
[cljsjs/react-dom "16.5.2-0"]
[cljsjs/react-dom-server "16.5.2-0"]
...
[antizer "0.3.1" :exclusions [cljsjs/react cljsjs/react-dom [cljsjs/react-dom-server]]]]
...
For the correct definition of the AnimateBody component I had to use a combination of reagent/adapt-react-class, reagent/as-element and reagent/reactify-component.
Specifically, in my views.cljs I define the component as:
(def animate (reagent/adapt-react-class rc-animate))
(def animateBody
(fn [props]
(reagent/as-element [animate (assoc props :transition-name "move" :component "tbody")])))
and then pass it to the ant/table component with:
...
:components {:body {:wrapper (reagent/reactify-component animateBody)}}
...
