Advantages

Create modals wherever you want without having to maintain state variables.

Motivation

The modal libraries in existence such as react-responsive-modal requires users to maintain state variables for the creation of each modal, which can become painful while maintaining a large codebase that involves multiple modals. This library eliminates the above problem and lets users create modals without having to create and maintain state variables.

Usage

import React, { Component } from "react";
import { openModal } from "cb-react-modal";
class Example extends Component {
  openModal = () => {
    openModal({
      header: () => (
        /* component or string to render header */
      ),
      body: () => (
        /* component or string to render body */
      ),
      footer: () => (
        /* component or string to render footer */
      ),
      classNames: { overlay: className for overlay, modal: className for the modal, closeIcon: className for close icon},
      closeOnEscape: /* Setting true closes the modal on pressing escape key setting false does the opposite (Optional)*/,
      closeIcon: { src: IconObject, alt: alt text for the icon},
      animation: { name: choose from 'bounce', 'fade-in' and 'zoom' animation, duration: 'animationDuration'},
      containerId: /* Id of the custom container over which you would like the modal to be mounted */
      modalId: { /* make the modal take the id of your choosing */}
    });
  };
  render() {
    return <button onClick={this.openModal}>Open Modal</button>;
  }
}

The open method will mount the container for you.

You may optionally choose to use the component mode of the library by importing and mounting the Modal component. you may use all the properties used in the object passed to the openModal function. The example below shows how to create a simple modal using component mode. You additionally need to pass open and onClose prop. Refer docs for more information.

import React, { Component } from "react";
import { Modal } from "cb-react-modal";

const ModalDemo = () => {
  return (
    <Modal
    head="A random Heading",
    body="This is a body",
    footer="A random footer"
  />
  )

  export default ModalDemo;
}

Nested modal support

The library additionally gives you the flexibility of mounting a modal container over an already existing modal. The example below describes the same

import React, { Component } from 'react';
import openModal from 'cb-react-modal';
import 'cb-react-modal/dist/modalStyle.css';

export default class App extends Component {
  openModal = () => {
    openModal({
      head: () => <h2>Random Heading</h2>,
      body: () => (
        <p>
          Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nullam pulvinar risus non risus
          hendrerit venenatis. Pellentesque sit amet hendrerit risus, sed porttitor quam.
        </p>
      ),
      footer: () => <button onClick={this.openInnerModal}>Open Inner Modal</button>
    });
  };

  openInnerModal = () => {
    openModal({
      head: () => 'Inner Heading',
      body: () => <p>Inner Body</p>,
      footer: () => <p>Inner Footer</p>
    });
  };

  render() {
    return <button onClick={this.openModal}>Show</button>;
  }
}
