usePortal

🌀 React hook for using Portals

Need to make dropdowns, lightboxes/modals/dialogs, global message notifications, or tooltips in React? React Portals provide a first-class way to render children into a DOM node that exists outside the DOM hierarchy of the parent component (react docs).

Examples

• Code Sandbox Example

Installation

yarn add react react-dom react-useportal

Usage

Stateless

import usePortal from 'react-useportal'

<Portal>
  This text is portaled at the end of document.body!
</Portal>

<Portal bindTo={document && document.getElementById('san-francisco')}>
  This text is portaled into San Francisco!
</Portal>

With State

import usePortal from 'react-useportal'

const App = () => {
  var { openPortal, closePortal, isOpen, Portal } = usePortal()

  // want to use array destructuring? You can do that too
  var [openPortal, closePortal, isOpen, Portal] = usePortal()

  return (
    <>
      <button onClick={openPortal}>
        Open Portal
      </button>
      {isOpen && (
        <Portal>
          <p>
            This Portal handles its own state.{' '}
            <button onClick={closePortal}>Close me!</button>, hit ESC or
            click outside of me.
          </p>
        </Portal>
      )}
    </>
  )
}

Need Animations?

import usePortal from 'react-useportal'

const App = () => {
  const { openPortal, closePortal, isOpen, Portal } = usePortal()
  return (
    <>
      <button onClick={openPortal}>
        Open Portal
      </button>
      <Portal>
        <p className={isOpen ? 'animateIn' : 'animateOut'}>
          This Portal handles its own state.{' '}
          <button onClick={closePortal}>Close me!</button>, hit ESC or
          click outside of me.
        </p>
      </Portal>
    </>
  )
}

Make sure you are passing the html synthetic event to the openPortal. i.e. onClick={e => openPortal(e)}

Options

Option	Description
closeOnOutsideClick	This will close the portal when not clicking within the portal. Default is true
closeOnEsc	This will allow you to hit ESC and it will close the modal. Default is true
renderBelowClickedElement	This will put the portal right under the element that you click on. Great for dropdowns. Required to pass event to openPortal onClick={event => openPortal(event)}
bindTo	This is the DOM node you want to attach the portal to. By default it attaches to document.body
isOpen	This will be the default for the portal. Default is false

Option Usage

const {
  openPortal,
  closePortal,
  togglePortal,
  isOpen,
  Portal
} = usePortal({
  closeOnOutsideClick: true,
  closeOnEsc: true,
  renderBelowClickedElement, // appear directly under the clicked element/node in the DOM
  bindTo, // attach the portal to this node in the DOM
  isOpen: false,
})

Todos

• add support for popup windows resource 1 resource 2. Maybe something like

  const { openPortal, closePortal, isOpen, Portal } = usePortal({
    popup: ['', '', 'width=600,height=400,left=200,top=200']
  })
  // window.open('', '', 'width=600,height=400,left=200,top=200')

• make isomorphic
• make work without requiring the html synthetic event & document when you are required to have it and when you are not
• clean up code
• make work with both [openPortal, closePortal, ..., Portal] = usePortal() and like current object destructuring
