Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Asynchronous React hooks to manage modal UI state

Readme

react-async-ui

npm npm bundle size License

This package provides state management primitives to build modal user interactions that you can await, resolve and reject using a familiar, Promise-based API.

Design goals

  • Provide lightweight building blocks to express modal UI behavior as async/await workflows
  • Provide a headless hooks-based API that keeps you flexible in your choice of UI component library and styling solution
  • Provide first-class TypeScript support and documentation

Installation

npm install react-async-ui

API

The react-async-ui package exports the useAsyncModalState hook to manage the lifecycle of a modal UI element that can be shown, await'ed, and can optionally accept parameters and return a result to the caller.

const [state, showModal] = useAsyncModalState<TValue, TResult>()

Similar to React's setState hook, it returns an array with exactly two elements:

  • state: Represents the current interaction state. This object has the following properties:

    | Name | Description | | ---- | ----------- | | isOpen | true if the modal is open, false otherwise | | props | (Only available when isOpen is true) | | props.value | The (optional) parameter passed to showModal() | | props.resolve() | Completes the modal interaction. Takes an optional result parameter that will be returned from showModal(). | | props.reject() | Fails the modal interaction with an exception. Takes an optional reason parameter that will be thrown from showModal(). |

  • showModal(): A callback to open the modal and optionally pass along a parameter value. It returns a Promise object, so you can await it to obtain the result of the modal interaction when the modal component calls state.props.{resolve|reject}:

    const result = await showModal(42)

Example

Let's build a simple greeter dialog that takes a single string argument (i.e., the name of the person to greet) and can be dismissed through "OK" and "Cancel" buttons:

import { useAsyncModalState } from 'react-async-ui'

function App() {
  // Declare state for a modal interaction that takes a string
  // argument and completes with either 'ok' or 'cancel'
  const [state, showModal] = useAsyncModalState<string, 'ok' | 'cancel'>()

  const sayHello = async () => {
    const result = await showModal('world')

    if (result === 'ok') {
      // TODO: Handle "ok" result
    }
  }

  return (
    <>
      <button onClick={sayHello}>
        Say hello!
      </button>

      {/* Only render dialog when state says it's open */}
      {state.isOpen && <GreeterDialog {...state.props} />}
    </>
  )
}

The corresponding dialog component then uses state.props to access the passed value and return a result through showModal:

import { AsyncModalProps } from 'react-async-ui'

function GreeterDialog({ value, resolve }: AsyncModalProps<string, 'ok' | 'cancel'>) {
  return (
    <dialog open>
      <p>Hello, {value}!</p>
      <button onClick={() => resolve('ok')}> OK </button>
      <button onClick={() => resolve('cancel')}> Cancel </button>
    </dialog>
  )
}
