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 🙏

Readme

Install

npm install --save react-refs-collection

Quick start

In functional components:

import useRefsCollection from 'react-refs-collection';

// Some functional component that renders multiple children and
// should be able to call imperative handlers on them:
const ItemsList = ({items}) => {
   const {getRefHandler, getRef} = useRefsCollection();

   const doSomeActionOnItem = useCallback(itemId => {
       getRef(itemId).doSomeAction();
   }, []);

   return (
        <div>
            {items.map(({id, ...restProps}) => (
                <Item
                    ref={getRefHandler(id)}
                    {...restProps}
                />
            ))}
        </div>
   )
}

Example of usage

For example we have the following UI:

  1. Search input + submit button
  2. List of some items

When user filled search input and submitted it - we have to scroll list of items to first item that matches given search criteria and focus this item.

Here is an implementation (Live Demo):

import useRefsCollection from 'react-refs-collection';

const MyComponent = (items) => {
  const {getRefHandler, getRef} = useRefsCollection();
  
  const [searchValue, setSearchValue] = useState("");

  const onChange = useCallback(e => {
    setSearchValue(e.target.value);
  }, []);

  const searchItem = useCallback(() => {
    const match = items.find(item =>
      item.value.toLowerCase().startsWith(searchValue.toLowerCase())
    );
    if (!match) return;
    const itemNode = getRef(match.id);
    if (itemNode) {
      itemNode.focus();
    }
  }, [getRef, searchValue]);

  // Search value when user pressed "Enter":
  const onInputKeyUp = useCallback(
    e => {
      if (e.keyCode === 13) {
        searchItem();
      }
    },
    [searchItem]
  );

  return (
    <div>
      <div>
        <input
          type="text"
          value={searchValue}
          onChange={onChange}
          onKeyUp={onInputKeyUp}
        />
        <button onClick={searchItem}>Search</button>
      </div>
      <div>
        {items.map(item => (
          <div
            key={item.id}
            className="focusable"
            ref={getRefHandler(item.id)}
            tabIndex={-1}
          >
            {item.value}
          </div>
        ))}
      </div>
    </div>
  );
}

const items = [
    {id: 1, content: 'One'},
    {id: 2, content: 'Two'},
    {id: 3, content: 'Three'},
    {id: 4, content: 'Four'},
    {id: 5, content: 'Five'},
    {id: 6, content: 'Six'},
    {id: 7, content: 'Seven'},
    {id: 8, content: 'Eight'},
    {id: 9, content: 'Nine'},
    {id: 10, content: 'Ten'}
]
ReactDOM.render(<MyComponent items={items} />, document.getElementById('app'));
