About

This a small library that extends the default <img /> tag in react to have a default source image that is available as a fallback in image fails. By default there is no default source prop on an images and you have to create custom solutions based on onError and onLoad events. This a good tool to use if you are not using a UI library that could have a built in solution in ther <img /> components. The only dependencies in this library are react.

Installation

Using The Library

Instead of using the standard <img /> tag you will use <DefaultSourceImage /> which extends the standard image component. All original <img /> props are inherited in <DefualtSourceImg />

Example

import React, {useState, useEffect} from 'react';
import DefaultSourceImage from 'react-default-source';
import sourceImage from '../assets/avatar.png'
const Component = props => {
  const [userImage, setUserImage] = useState([]);
  useEffect(() => {
    //Fetching user image
    const getUserImage = async () => {
      return fetch('https://randomuser.me/api/')
        .then(response => response.json())
        .then(json => {
          const data = json.picture.large;
          setUserImage(data);
        })
        .catch(error => {
          console.error(error);
        });
    };
    getUserImage();
  }, []);


  return (
    <div>
        <DefaultSourceImage
          imageStyle={{ width: 100, height: 100 }}
          defaultSourceImg={sourceImage}
          sourceImg={userImage}
          alt="avatar"
        />
    </div>
  );
};
