React Bootstrap - How to manually close OverlayTrigger

Hide function is not a public function on OverlayTrigger. Set <OverlayTrigger rootClose={true}... and then on your onClick event trigger call document.body.click().

Add a ref to the <OverlayTrigger ref="overlay"... element and call the hide method once the element has been rendered. Haven't tested it but should work:

this.refs.overlay.hide();
