@tabula/use-size v0.2.0

@tabula/use-size

The useSize hook allows to track size of an element through the ResizeObserver.

That hook is written with a few technical decisions:

• a single ResizeObserver instance used for better performance;
• the requestAnimationFrame used for throttling resize callbacks;
• the hook doesn't support SSR;
• ResizeObserver polyfill doesn't used.

Installation

Use the package manager pnpm to install @tabula/use-size.

pnpm add @tabula/use-size

You can use npm or yarn too.

Usage

The default usage is looks like:

import { useSize } from '@tabula/use-size';

const Watcher: FC = () => {
  const [ref, size] = useSize();

  return <div ref={ref} />;
};

Defaults

The initial value of size will be { height: 0, width: 0 }.

const [, size] = useSize();

// size => { height: 0, width: 0 }

But you can provide your default value:

const [, size] = useSize({ height: 150, width: 450 });

// size => { height: 150, width: 450 }

That value is actual while have no any element which mounted and transferred to the hook with ref.

Initial element's size

Each time, when a new element is provided through the ref, we update it's size.

const [ref, size] = useSize();

// size => { height: 0, width: 0 }

ref(<div style={{ height: 150, width: 450 }} />);

// size => { height: 150, width: 450 }

It works each time when element is updated.

const [ref, size] = useSize();

// size => { height: 0, width: 0 }

ref(<div key={0} style={{ height: 150, width: 450 }} />);

// size => { height: 150, width: 450 }

ref(<div key={1} style={{ height: 50, width: 150 }} />);

// size => { height: 50, width: 150 }

Resize

Each time when an element is resized, we update it's size in hook.

const [ref, size] = useSize();

// size => { height: 0, width: 0 }

ref(<div style={{ height: 150, width: 450 }} />);

// size => { height: 150, width: 450 }

resize({ height: 50, width: 150 });

// size => { height: 50, width: 150 }

Multiple refs

We want to track size of the single element with multiple refs.

const [ref1, size1] = useSize();
const [ref2, size2] = useSize();

const ref = combineRefs(ref1, ref2);

// size1 => { height: 0, width: 0 }
// size2 => { height: 0, width: 0 }

ref(<div style={{ height: 150, width: 450 }} />);

// size1 => { height: 150, width: 450 }
// size2 => { height: 150, width: 450 }

resize({ height: 50, width: 150 });

// size1 => { height: 50, width: 150 }
// size2 => { height: 50, width: 150 }

Rounds

We always round size object values.

const [ref, size] = useSize();

// size => { height: 0, width: 0 }

ref(<div style={{ height: 150.1, width: 450.9 }} />);

// size => { height: 150, width: 451 }

resize({ height: 50.9, width: 150.1 });

// size => { height: 51, width: 150 }

Re-renders

We try to avoid re-renders. If a new size is equal to previous, we don't trigger re-render.

const [ref, size] = useSize();

// size => { height: 0, width: 0 }
// render

ref(<div style={{ height: 150, width: 450 }} />);

// size => { height: 150, width: 450 }
// render

resize({ height: 150, width: 450 });

// size => { height: 150, width: 450 }
// no render

resize({ height: 150.1, width: 450.1 })
// size => { height: 150, width: 450 }
// no render

Target

You can get access to the target element through hook.

const [ref, size, target] = useSize();

// target => null

ref(<div id="target-1" />);

// target => <div id="target-1" />

ref(<div id="target-2" />);

// target => <div id="target-2" />

ref(null);

// target => null
