emitrpc-react v0.0.26

Emit RPC React Plugin

An Emit RPC React hook

Install

$ npm i emitrpc-react

or

$ yarn add emitrpc-react

Basics

First wrap the EmitterContext around the <App />. Pass the RPCEmitter to the EmitterContext provider like the following.

import React from 'react'
import { hydrate } from 'react-dom'
import { RPCEmitter } from 'emitrpc'
import { EmitterContext } from 'emitrpc-react'

const emitter = new RPCEmitter('/emitrpc')

hydrate(
  (
    <EmitterContext.Provider value={emitter}>
      <App />
    </EmitterContext.Provider>
  ),
  document.getElementById('__incept_root')
)

Next in a component use the hook useEmit() to call events remotely. There's no need to wrap this in useEffect().

import { useEmit } from 'emitrpc-react'

export default function About() {
  const response = useEmit('company-detail', { id: 1 })
  if (!response) {
    return <h1>Loading...</h1>
  }
  return <h1>About {response.results.name}</h1>
}
