      setData={setState}
      barMode="above"

          scale="log"
          onChange={value => console.log({ value })}
        />

Api

Components exports

React-guify creates and exports React components that allow you to structure the GUI with React nodes.

You can pass all options from guify as props to these components. For now components will not respond to props update.

Read guify docs for more.

Main panel

• GuiPanel: guify main panel.

In addition to the native options from guify, the panel requires two additional props:

• data: the data object bound to components.
• setData: the function the panel will call to update your data when values change.

Data-bound components

• GuiCheckbox: a checkbox
• GuiRange: a number selector
• GuiInterval: an interval selector
• GuiColor: a color selector
• GuiSelect: an option selector
• GuiText: a free-text entry
• GuiDisplay: displays a variable
• GuiFile: a file selector

Action components

• GuiButton: a button with an action

Organizational components:

• GuiTitle: shows a title
• GuiFolder: a folder grouping different components

Toast

guify has a nice toast feature that React-guify tries to implement seamlessly. The panel component will pass back a ref to you, which will include the original gui object created by guify.

function ToastExample() {
  const [state, setState] = React.useState(initialState)
  const gui = React.useRef()
  return (
    <GuiPanel ref={gui} data={state} setData={setState}>
      <GuiButton
        label="Toast"
        action={() => gui.current.Toast('Hello from Toast')}
      />
    </GuiPanel>
  )
}

Todo List
