@xosnrdev/tabkit v1.9.3

TabKit

TabKit is a React SDK library that simplifies the management of tabbed applications, particularly for text editors. It provides a set of actions, reducers, and utilities that make it easy to add, remove, update, and reorder tabs. Built on top of Redux Toolkit, TabKit offers a straightforward and efficient solution for handling tab-related state management.

Features

• Add new tabs with unique IDs and custom configurations.
• Set the active tab programmatically.
• Remove tabs individually or close all tabs at once.
• Switch between tabs using "next" and "previous" actions.
• Update tab properties, such as title, content, and dirty state.
• Customize tab behavior with configuration options.
• Built with Redux Toolkit for efficient state management.
• Persist tab state across sessions using Redux Persist.
• Provides a single context hook as a single source of truth for accessing tab state and dispatching actions.

Getting Started

Installation

To install TabKit, run the following command:

  pnpm add @xosnrdev/tabkit

or

  yarn add @xosnrdev/tabkit

Usage

1. Wrap your application with the Provider

Use the Provider, store, persistor, PersistGate from TabKit to wrap your application and provide the built-in Redux store and Redux Persist persistor to your components.

import { StrictMode } from "react";
import { createRoot } from "react-dom/client";
import App from "./App.tsx";
import "./index.css";
import { Provider, store, persistor, PersistGate } from "@xosnrdev/tabkit";

createRoot(document.getElementById("root")!).render(
	<StrictMode>
		<Provider store={store}>
			<PersistGate persistor={persistor} loading={null}>
				<App />
			</PersistGate>
		</Provider>
	</StrictMode>
);

2. Dispatch Actions

Use the useTabContext hook to access tab state and dispatch actions:

import { ChangeEvent, FC, useState } from "react";
import { useTabContext, TabError } from "@xosnrdev/tabkit";

const TextEditor: FC = () => {
	const {
		addTab,
		tabs,
		removeTab,
		updateTab,
		activeTab,
		activeTabId,
		closeAllTabs,
		setActiveTab,
		switchTab,
	} = useTabContext();
	const [error, setError] = useState<string | null>(null);

	const handleAddTab = () => {
		try {
			addTab({
				title: `Document ${tabs.length}`,
				content: `Hello World! ${tabs.length}`,
				meta: `typescript ${tabs.length}`, // For additional tab properties
				config: {
					maxTabs: 4, // Maximum number of Tabs to allow
					maxContentSize: 50, // Maximum number of content in words allowed
					persist: true, // Persists state of Tab(s). default false
					closable: true, // Mitigates closing Tab(s). default true
				},
			});
		} catch (error) {
			// in a real scenario you can use error boundary
			if (error instanceof TabError) {
				setError(error.message);
			} else {
				setError("An unknown error occurred.");
			}
		}
	};

	// Utility functions
	const handleSetActiveTab = (id: string) => {
		setActiveTab(id);
	};

	const handleRemoveTab = (id: string) => {
		removeTab(id);
	};

	const handleTextChange = (e: ChangeEvent<HTMLTextAreaElement>) => {
		const newText = e.target.value;
		if (activeTabId) {
			updateTab({ id: activeTabId, content: newText });
		}
	};

	const handleSwitchTab = (direction: "next" | "previous") => {
		switchTab(direction);
	};

	const handleCloseAllTabs = () => {
		closeAllTabs();
	};

	return (
		<div>
			{error && (
				<div
					style={{
						color: "red",
						backgroundColor: "#ffcccc",
						padding: "10px",
						marginBottom: "10px",
					}}
				>
					<p>Error: {error}</p>
				</div>
			)}
			<div style={{ marginBottom: "10px" }}>
				<button onClick={handleAddTab}>Add Tab</button>
				<button onClick={() => handleSwitchTab("previous")}>
					Previous Tab
				</button>
				<button onClick={() => handleSwitchTab("next")}>Next Tab</button>
				<button onClick={handleCloseAllTabs}>Close All Tabs</button>
			</div>

			<div style={{ marginBottom: "10px" }}>
				{tabs.map((tab) => (
					<div
						key={tab.id}
						style={{ display: "inline-block", marginRight: "10px" }}
					>
						<button onClick={() => handleSetActiveTab(tab.id)}>
							{tab.title}
						</button>
						<button onClick={() => handleRemoveTab(tab.id)}>X</button>
					</div>
				))}
			</div>

			{activeTab && (
				<div>
					<textarea
						id="TextEditor"
						value={activeTab.content}
						onChange={handleTextChange}
						style={{ width: "100%", height: "200px" }}
					/>
				</div>
			)}
			{activeTab && <p>{activeTab.meta}</p>}
		</div>
	);
};

export default TextEditor;

Interfaces

TabConfig

Represents the configuration options for a tab.

Tab

Represents a single tab.

TabState

Represents the state of the tabs.

Actions

• addTab(payload: Omit<Tab, "id" | "isDirty">): Adds a new tab to the state.
• setActiveTab(tabId: string): Sets the active tab to the one with the given ID.
• removeTab(tabId: string): Removes the tab with the given ID from the state.
• switchTab(direction: "next" | "previous"): Switches to the next or previous tab in the order.
• closeAllTabs(): Closes all tabs, removing them from the state.
• updateTab(payload: Partial<Tab> & { id: string }): Updates the properties of the tab with the given ID.

Hook

TabKit provides the following hook for accessing tab state and dispatching actions:

• useTabContext is a custom React hook that provides a convenient way to interact with the tab management system in your application. It abstracts away the complexity of working with the Redux store directly and offers a simple and intuitive API for managing tabs.
