Material-UI confirm
Confirming user choice is a good thing to do, it should also be easy to do.
This package provides simple confirmation dialogs built on top of @mui/material
and straightforward to use thanks to React Hooks.
Installation
npm install --save material-ui-confirm
Demo
Usage
Wrap your app inside the ConfirmProvider
component.
Note: If you're using Material UI ThemeProvider
, make sure ConfirmProvider
is a child of it.
import React from 'react';
import { ConfirmProvider } from 'material-ui-confirm';
const App = () => {
return (
<ConfirmProvider>
{/* ... */}
</ConfirmProvider>
);
};
export default App;
Call the useConfirm
hook wherever you need the confirm
function.
Note: A component calling useConfirm
must be a child of ConfirmProvider
.
import React from 'react';
import Button from '@mui/material/Button';
import { useConfirm } from 'material-ui-confirm';
const Item = () => {
const confirm = useConfirm();
const handleClick = () => {
confirm({ description: 'This action is permanent!' })
.then(() => { })
.catch(() => { });
};
return (
<Button onClick={handleClick}>
Click
</Button>
);
};
export default Item;
API
ConfirmProvider
This component is required in order to render a dialog in the component tree.
Props:
Name | Type | Default | Description |
---|
defaultOptions | object | {} | Overrides the default options used by confirm . |
useConfirm() => confirm
This hook returns the confirm
function.
confirm([options]) => Promise
This function opens a confirmation dialog and returns a promise
representing the user choice (resolved on confirmation and rejected on cancellation).
Options:
Name | Type | Default | Description |
---|
title | ReactNode | 'Are you sure?' | Dialog title. |
description | ReactNode | '' | Dialog content, automatically wrapped in DialogContentText . |
content | `ReactNode | null` | null |
confirmationText | ReactNode | 'Ok' | Confirmation button caption. |
cancellationText | ReactNode | 'Cancel' | Cancellation button caption. |
dialogProps | object | {} | Material-UI Dialog props. |
confirmationButtonProps | object | {} | Material-UI Button props for the confirmation button. |
cancellationButtonProps | object | {} | Material-UI Button props for the cancellation button. |
Useful notes
Confirm by pressing Enter
You can get this behavior by adding the autoFocus
property to the confirmation button.
This way the button is focused as soon as the dialog opens and hitting Enter
naturally triggers a click.
Locally
const MyComponent = () => {
const handleClick = () => {
confirm({ confirmationButtonProps: { autoFocus: true } })
.then(() => { })
.catch(() => { });
};
};
Globally
const App = () => {
return (
<ConfirmProvider
defaultOptions={{
confirmationButtonProps: { autoFocus: true }
}}
>
{/* ... */}
</ConfirmProvider>
);
};
