React-Tiny-Link

Convert your links into beautiful previews

This is a fork of winhtaikaung/react-tiny-link with cache support waiting for PR #88 to be merged

Yet anotherReact link preview component with cards for web without a specific backend.

CORS enabled?

No. You may need a CORS proxy to use this component. But if you dont have one, we made the component to use https://cors-anywhere.herokuapp.com as default proxy. Thanks to Rob. It saves my time for accessing urls.

Installation

npm install --save react-tiny-link

Hook usage

import { useScrapper } from 'react-tiny-link'

const [result, loading, error] = useScrapper({
  url:
    'https://www.amazon.com/Steve-Madden-Mens-Jagwar-10-5/dp/B016X44MKA/ref=lp_18637582011_1_1?srs=18637582011&ie=UTF8&qid=1550721409&sr=8-1',
})

Next.JS

For Next.Js you will have to turn off ssr false and use dynamic import. Because react-tiny-link uses styled-components as styling library which uses browser API window to attach scCGSHMRCache and stuffs after build.

import dynamic from "next/dynamic";
const ReactTinyLink = dynamic(
  () => {
    return import("react-tiny-link").then((mod) => mod.ReactTinyLink);
  },
  { ssr: false }
);
