React Pokedom

Gotta catch 'em all!

A React library for catching Pokémon alongside your DOM events. There are more than 800 Pokémon hiding in your DOM. Can you catch them all?

Installation

npm install @aurasphere/react-pokedom

or

yarn add @aurasphere/react-pokedom

Quickstart

DISCLAMER: catching Pokémons of type bug may infect your application with the Pokérus virus which will turn your computer into a Pokédollar crypto miner. We decline any responsibility.

To catch a Pokémon you use the usePokeball hook. This hook returns a function that you can pass as a DOM event callback:

import { usePokeball } from '@aurasphere/react-pokedom';
// ...
const pokeball = usePokeball();
//...
<button onClick={pokeball}>Try to catch a Pokemon!</button>

You can also pass a function as an argument to the hook. If you do so, your function will be invoked with the DOM event (with an additional pokemon field if you caught one):

const myCallback = event => {
    if (event.pokemon) {
        console.log("Pokemon caught!");
    }
}
const pokeball = usePokeball(myCallback);

To see all your Pokémons you can use the usePokedex hook which returns an array:

takes an optional callback function as an argument which will be invoked with the DOM event. The event will contain a pokemon field if one has been caught.

To view the Pokémon you caught so far, you can use the usePokedex hook which returns an array. However, this hook only works in the Pokémon world, so you have to wrap your application in the <KantoRegion> tag:

// index.js
import { KantoRegion } from '@aurasphere/react-pokedom';
// ...
<KantoRegion>
    <MyComponent />
</KantoRegion>

// my-component.js
import { usePokedex } from '@aurasphere/react-pokedom';
// ...
const pokedex = usePokedex();

API

Hooks
