Features

• Gets user name, email, rating.
• User can determine the position (left or right)
• User can determine the header, body, and button text as well as the number of star ratings.
• Form validation (name, email, feedback and rating are required)

Why

I needed a "feedback component" for my projects. Since I was unable to find one which met my requirements (and the fact that I generally enjoy re-inventing the wheel) this is what I came up with.

Demo

Installation

The preferred way of using the component is via NPM

npm install --save react-feedback-popup

Usage

Here's a sample implementation that creates a custom popup on a dummy Create-React-App page.

import React from 'react';
import logo from './logo.svg';
import FeedBack from 'react-feedback-popup';
import './App.css';

function App() {
	return (
		<div className="App">
			<header className="App-header">
				<img src={logo} className="App-logo" alt="logo" />
				<p>
					Edit <code>src/App.js</code> and save to reload.
        </p>
				<a
					className="App-link"
					href="https://reactjs.org"
					target="_blank"
					rel="noopener noreferrer"
				>
					Learn React
        </a>
			</header>
			<FeedBack
				style={{zIndex:'2', marginLeft:'20px', position:'fixed'}}
				position="left"
				numberOfStars={5}
				headerText="Hello"
				bodyText="Custom Body test"
				buttonText="This is also custom"
				handleClose={() => console.log("handleclose")}
				handleSubmit={(data) => 
					fetch('xxxxxx', {
						headers: {
							Accept: 'application/json',
							'Content-Type': 'application/json'
						},
						method: 'POST', // or 'PUT'
						body: JSON.stringify(data),
					}).then((response) => { 
						if (!response.ok) {
							return Promise.reject('Our servers are having issues! We couldn\'t send your feedback!');
						}
						response.json()
					}).then(() => {
						alert('Success!');
					}).catch((error) => {
						alert('Our servers are having issues! We couldn\'t send your feedback!', error);
					})
				}
				handleButtonClick={() => console.log("handleButtonClick")}
			/>
		</div>
	);
}

export default App;

As you can see, the fetch address is xxxxxx. Here, you can provide a URL to send your POST request, so that the form can be submitted to this link. There are 3rd party tools like formspree.io, email.js, mailchimp, Amazon Lambda functions etc to send emails once you get the user data via this React Popup.

Options

Option	Type	Default	Description
position	String	right	Position of the feedback pop. Possible options are right and left
numberOfStars	Integer	5	Number of rating stars to be displayed.
headerText	String	"Have Feedback? 📝?"	Text to be displayed on header when pop is expanded.
bodyText	String	"Need help? Have feedback? I'm a human so please be nice and I'll fix it!"	Text to be displayed on on the body when pop is expanded
buttonText	String	"Feedback? ☝️"	Text to be displayed on header when pop is no expanded
handleClose	Function	This function collapses the popup	Called when close button is clicked.
handleSubmit	Function	alert('Success!') or alert('Error')	Called when submit button is clicked.
handleButtonClick	Function	()	Called when user clicks on Feedback button to expand the popup.

Sample Usage:

<FeedBack
	style={{zIndex:'2', marginLeft:'20px', position:'fixed'}}
	position="left"
	numberOfStars={5}
	headerText="Hello"
	bodyText="Custom Body test"
	buttonText="This is also custom"
	handleClose={() => console.log("handleclose")}
	handleSubmit={(data) => 
		fetch('https://formspree.io/xxxxxx', {
			headers: {
				Accept: 'application/json',
				'Content-Type': 'application/json'
			},
			method: 'POST', // or 'PUT'
			body: JSON.stringify(data),
		}).then((response) => { 
			if (!response.ok) {
				return Promise.reject('Our servers are having issues! We couldn\'t send your feedback!');
			}
			response.json()
		}).then(() => {
			alert('Success!');
		}).catch((error) => {
			alert('Our servers are having issues! We couldn\'t send your feedback!', error);
		})
	}
	handleButtonClick={() => console.log("handleButtonClick")}

/>

Styling

style is a props to the Form component. You can overwrite the default values via passing CSS attributes. For example,

style={{zIndex:'2', marginLeft:'20px', position:'fixed'}}

Dev

The component is written in ES6 and uses Webpack as its build tool.
