hoist-non-react-statics

What is hoist-non-react-statics?

The hoist-non-react-statics package is used to copy non-react specific statics from a child component to a parent component. This is often used in higher-order component (HOC) patterns, where the HOC wraps a child component but needs to expose the same static methods as the child.

What are hoist-non-react-statics's main functionalities?

Hoisting non-react statics

This feature allows you to automatically copy static methods from a child component to a parent component, which is useful when creating higher-order components that should not interfere with the static methods of the wrapped component.

import hoistNonReactStatics from 'hoist-non-react-statics';

function enhance(WrappedComponent) {
  class Enhance extends React.Component {
    /* ... */
  }
  hoistNonReactStatics(Enhance, WrappedComponent);
  return Enhance;
}

// Usage
// If WrappedComponent had static method foo(), Enhance will also have it.

While not directly related to hoisting statics, this plugin removes propTypes from React components in production builds, which can be a complementary step when optimizing higher-order components.
