Binding action creators to ClickAwayListeners

Action creators are whatever triggers your actions(onClick, onTouch), mostly a button but any element in general can have those handlers so ¯_(ツ)_/¯

How do we make sure there's no collision between them?

• By adding a clickAwayId on ClickAwayListener
• And preventClickaway dataset with the id specified

More like:

const id = "click-yay";

return (
	<ClickAwayListener onClickAway={fakeHandleClick} clickAwayId={id}>
		Hello World
	</ClickAwayListener>
	<button data-prevent-clickaway={id}>A button</button>
)

Examples

• A simple menu built with React Hooks
