Installation

To install, you can use npm or yarn:

$ npm install react-global-modal-plus
$ yarn add react-global-modal-plus

Usage

In order to use, you must follow the steps below:

1. Configure React Global Modal Plus

At first, you need to configure the modal at the root of your project as shown bellow

import React, { useEffect } from 'react'
import { GlobalModalWrapper, GlobalModal } from 'react-global-modal-plus'
import 'react-global-modal-plus/dist/style.css'

let globalModalRef: any = null

function App() {
  useEffect(() => {
    GlobalModal.setUpModal(globalModalRef)
  }, [])

  return (
    <div className="App">
      <GlobalModalWrapper ref={(el) => (globalModalRef = el)} />
    </div>
  )
}

export default App

Here GlobalModal.setUpModal methods register our modal by storing the reference of the modal obtained from the GlobalModalWrapper. react-global-modal-plus/dist/style.css is the styles of the modal which you also need to import in the root file of the project.

2. Triggering exposed modal methods

The GlobalModal consist of set method using which we can open and close the modal and also can update the props passed to the modal. It consist of following methods:

1. setUpModal
2. push
3. pop
4. add
5. closeAll
6. len
7. popAndPush

1. setUpModal

You can use this method to register the modal reference and should be defined in the root of the project as mention above in Configure React Global Modal Plus

2. push

You can use this method to open the modal which conatin a list of props along with the component that we want to display inside the modal.

  const openModal = async () => {
    GlobalModal.push({
      component:Component, //Component represent the component that you want to display inside the modal
      title:"Modal title" //modal title
      props:{   //props object are represented as the props to the component
        data:data
      }
    })
  }

The methods contain different others properties which are described below:

3. pop

You can use this method to close the modal. In order to simply close the modal you can use like below:

GlobalModal.pop()

4. add

You can use this method for updating any props values inside the modal. And this can be triggered from outside the modal as well as inside the modal

GlobalModal.add({
  props: {
    // this is the updated props which will be passed to the component inside the modal
    value: newValue,
  },
  modalIndex: 0, // it indicate current number of modal open
})

In above method, modalIndex represents the index of opened modal. If you have one modal opened, then modalIndex will be 0 else if you have second modal opened on top of first one then themodalIndex will be 1 and soon.

5. closeAll

You can use this method to close all the modal that are opened. In order to simply close all the modal that you have opened previously you can use like below:

GlobalModal.closeAll()

6. len

You can use this method to get length of the modals that are currently opened. In order to simply get length of all modals that you have opened you can use like below:

GlobalModal.len()

7. popAndPush

You can use this method to get best of the both worlds i.e., close the alreasy opened modal, and then open a new modal.

  const openModal = async () => {
    GlobalModal.popAndPush({
      component: Component, //Component represent the component that you want to display inside the modal
      title: "Modal title" //modal title
      props: {   //props object are represented as the props to the component
        data: data
      }
    })
  }

Examples

1. Simple example with in built header and no footer

const Example = () => {
  const openModal = async () => {
    GlobalModal.push({
      component: ComponentText,
      props: {
        test: 'Testing',
      },
    })
  }

  return (
    <div>
      <button onClick={openModal}>Open</button>
    </div>
  )
}
const ComponentText = ({ test }: { test: string }) => {
  return (
    <div
      style={{
        height: '400px',
      }}
    >
      hello {test}
    </div>
  )
}
export default Example

2. Simple example with header and footer inside component

import React from 'react'
import { GlobalModal } from 'react-global-modal-plus'

const Example = () => {
  const openModal = async () => {
    GlobalModal.push({
      component: ComponentText,
      props: {
        test: 'Testing',
      },
      hideHeader: true,
    })
  }

  return (
    <div>
      <button onClick={openModal}>Open</button>
    </div>
  )
}
const ComponentText = ({ test }: { test: string }) => {
  return (
    <div
      style={{
        height: '400px',
      }}
    >
      <div
        style={{
          height: '2rem',
        }}
      >
        Header
      </div>
      hello {test}
      <div
        style={{
          position: 'absolute',
          left: 0,
          bottom: 0,
          width: '100%',
          borderTop: '1px solid rgb(230 232 240)',
        }}
      >
        <div
          style={{
            display: 'flex',
            flexDirection: 'row',
            padding: '8px 10px',
            justifyContent: 'flex-end',
            gridGap: '5px',
          }}
        >
          <button className="btn btn-error">Close</button>
          <button className="btn btn-primary"> okay</button>
        </div>
      </div>
    </div>
  )
}
export default Example

You can also include the header and footer in the component which will by displayed inside the modal but you have to disable the header present inside the modal by passing the props hideHeader: true

Modal as a SlidePane

The slide pane are the one that appears on the side that may be left or right of the screen. You can open existing modal as the slide pane:

import React from 'react'
import { GlobalModal } from 'react-global-modal-plus'

const Example = () => {
  const openModal = async () => {
    GlobalModal.push({
      component: ComponentText,
      props: {
        test: 'Testing',
      },
      hideHeader: true,
      isSlidePane: true,
    })
  }

  return (
    <div>
      <button onClick={openModal}>Open</button>
    </div>
  )
}
const ComponentText = ({ test }: { test: string }) => {
  return (
    <div
      style={{
        height: '400px',
      }}
    >
      <div
        style={{
          height: '2rem',
        }}
      >
        Header
      </div>
      hello {test}
      <div
        style={{
          position: 'absolute',
          left: 0,
          bottom: 0,
          width: '100%',
          borderTop: '1px solid rgb(230 232 240)',
        }}
      >
        <div
          style={{
            display: 'flex',
            flexDirection: 'row',
            padding: '8px 10px',
            justifyContent: 'flex-end',
            gridGap: '5px',
          }}
        >
          <button className="btn btn-error">Close</button>
          <button className="btn btn-primary"> okay</button>
        </div>
      </div>
    </div>
  )
}
export default Example

You can open slide pane by passing the props isSlidePane: true while opening the modal. Their is additional properties for side pane that is position which determines whether you want it be right or left.

Confirmation Modal

Confirmation modal is can be used to ask the user to perform the certain operation. You can invoke the confirmation similarly to that of normal modal.

import React from 'react'
import { ConfirmationModal } from 'react-global-modal-plus'

const Example = () => {
  const openModal = async () => {
    ConfirmationModal({
      onCancel: () => {
        // TODO when user tigger cancel action
      },
      onOkay: () => {
        //TODO when user tigger okay action
      },
      okayLabel: 'Continue',
      cancelLabel: 'Back',
    })
  }

  return (
    <div>
      <button onClick={openModal}>Open</button>
    </div>
  )
}

The confirmation modal can be used like above. It consist of list of properties which are descriped below:

Async Confirmation Modal

You can use this modal to perfrom certain action based on the user response.

import React from 'react'
import { AsyncConfirmationModal } from 'react-global-modal-plus'

const Example = () => {
  const openModal = async () => {
    const res = await AsyncConfirmationModal({
      title: 'This is testing',
      message: 'This is message',
    })
    if (res) {
      //TODO if yes agree or press okay
    } else {
      //TODO if user doesn't agree or press cancel
    }
  }

  return (
    <div>
      <button onClick={openModal}>Open</button>
    </div>
  )
}
export default Example

The async confirmation modal can be used like above. It consist of list of properties which are descriped below:

Full customization with different UI framework

The react-global-modal-plus support customization of the existing modal which means you can use this package with any UI framework that you are currently working within your project. For customization, you can pass customModal to the GlobalModalWrapper component. At first create the custom modal like bellow:

//This is the example with chackra-ui
import {
  Button,
  Drawer,
  DrawerBody,
  DrawerCloseButton,
  DrawerContent,
  DrawerFooter,
  DrawerHeader,
  DrawerOverlay,
  Modal,
  ModalBody,
  ModalCloseButton,
  ModalContent,
  ModalFooter,
  ModalHeader,
  ModalOverlay,
} from '@chakra-ui/react'
import React from 'react'
import { IModalProps } from 'react-global-modal-plus'
type IAntModalProps = IModalProps & {
  width?: number
  scrollBehavior?: 'inside' | 'outside'
  isCentered?: boolean
  size: 'xs' | 'sm' | 'md' | 'lg' | 'xl' | 'full'
}
export const CustomModalComponent = React.forwardRef((propsValues: IAntModalProps, ref) => {
  const {
    children,
    open = false,
    isCloseable,
    title = 'Modal Header',
    onModalClose = () => {},
    footer,
    closeIconComponent,
    actions = [],
    isSlidePane = false,
    position,
    hideHeader,
    scrollBehavior = 'inside',
    isCentered = false,
    size = 'md',
  } = propsValues

  if (isSlidePane) {
    return (
      <Drawer placement={position} isOpen={open} onClose={onModalClose} size={size}>
        <DrawerOverlay />
        <DrawerContent>
          {!isCloseable && (!closeIconComponent ? <DrawerCloseButton /> : closeIconComponent)}
          {!hideHeader && <DrawerHeader>{title}</DrawerHeader>}
          <DrawerBody padding={0} position="relative">
            {children}
          </DrawerBody>
          {footer && footer}
          {actions.length > 0 && !footer && (
            <DrawerFooter>
              {actions.map((el: any) => (
                <Button
                  key={el.title}
                  colorScheme={el.colorScheme}
                  mr={3}
                  onClick={el.onClick}
                  variant={el.variant ?? 'ghost'}
                >
                  {el.title}
                </Button>
              ))}
            </DrawerFooter>
          )}
        </DrawerContent>
      </Drawer>
    )
  }
  return (
    <Modal
      isOpen={open}
      onClose={onModalClose}
      closeOnOverlayClick={!isCloseable}
      scrollBehavior={scrollBehavior}
      isCentered={isCentered}
      size={size}
    >
      <ModalOverlay />
      <ModalContent>
        {!hideHeader && <ModalHeader>Modal Title</ModalHeader>}
        {!isCloseable && <ModalCloseButton />}
        <ModalBody padding={0} position="relative">
          {children}
        </ModalBody>
        {footer && footer}
        {actions.length > 0 && !footer && (
          <ModalFooter>
            {actions.map((el: any) => (
              <Button
                key={el.title}
                colorScheme={el.colorScheme}
                mr={3}
                onClick={el.onClick}
                variant={el.variant ?? 'ghost'}
              >
                {el.title}
              </Button>
            ))}
          </ModalFooter>
        )}
      </ModalContent>
    </Modal>
  )
})

After creating the custom modal, pass the custom modal to GlobalModalWrapper component.

<GlobalModalWrapper customModal={CustomModalComponent} ref={(el) => (globalModalRef = el)} />

Note: In the case of customization, if you need more props you can pass the prop while opening the modal and can access the same prop in your custom modal. You can also observe this in the example.
