react-async-core-hooks v0.1.1

react-async-core-hooks

A set of hooks that provide an async version of core React hooks. With the native React API you would have to check if the effect or the component are still mounted after each and every Promise resolution. Example:

useEffect(() => {
    let mounted = true;

    fetch().then((res) => {
        if (!mounted) return;

        return res.json();
    }).then((json) => {
        if (!mounted) return;

        setJson(json);
    });

    return () => {
        mounted = false;
    };
}, input);

This package takes a unique approach by using generators to determine whether the execution should continue or abort.

Usage

useAsyncEffect

useAsyncEffect(function* (onCleanup) {
    const res = yield fetch();
    const json = yield res.json();

    setJson(json);
}, input);

useAsyncLayoutEffect

useAsyncLayoutEffect(function* (onCleanup) {
    const res = yield fetch();
    const json = yield res.json();

    setJson(json);
}, input);

useAsyncCallback

const fetchJson = useAsyncCallback(function* () {
    const res = yield fetch();
    const json = yield res.json();

    setJson(json);
}, input);
