react-dialog-hook

React dialog hook

This hook was made to manage dialog state in React. The main feature is a possibility to get results passed as an argument of the close method as a returned value from the open dialog method. See example.

All data (params and results) are also available as returned object keys from the hook.

It's fully written in Typescript.

Usage

Installing

npm i react-dialog-hook

Importing

import { useDialog } from "react-dialog-hook";

It is possible to use already prepared context for dialog:

import { DialogConsumer, DialogProvider, DialogContext } from "react-dialog-hook";

Example

Live demo in codesandbox is available here: https://codesandbox.io/s/react-dialog-hook-demo-b99uy?file=/src/App.tsx

import { useDialog } from "react-hook-dialog";

function Dialog({ isOpen, close, params }) {
  const dialogResult = "RESULT"
  return (
    <>
      {isOpen && (
        <div>
          <h1>DIALOG HEADER</h1>
          <button onClick={() => close(dialogResult)}>close</button>
        </div>
      )}
    </>
  )
}

function Example() {
  const {
    isOpen
    open
    close
    params,
    results
  } = useDialog<ParamsType, ResultsType>({
    isDefaultOpen: false; // Set dialog open after first render
  });

  const openHandler = useCallback(async () => {
    const dialogParams = "PARAM"
    const resultsFromDialog = await open(dialogParams); // It returns results passed as argument to close method
  }, []);

  return (
    <>
      <button onClick={openHandler}>OPEN DIALOG</button>
      <Dialog isOpen={isOpen} close={close} params={params} />
    </>
  )
}
