remix-wizard 🧙‍♂️

A all-in-one solution for building wizards in remix.run

Installation

yarn add remix-wizard

Examples

Basic

1. Create a wizard and specify your routes

oboarding.server.ts

export const onboardingWizard = createWizard({
  name: 'onboarding-wizard',
  routes: [
	'/onboarding/org',
	'/onboarding/users',
	'/onboarding/finish'
  ],
});

2. Import your wizard and call register in your action

routes/onboarding/users.tsx

import { onboardingWizard } from './onboarding.server'

export const action = ({ request }) => {
    const { save, nextStep, jumpToStep, prevStep } =
      await onboardingWizard.register(request);

    // Save arbitary data to the wizard session
    save('userProfile', { name: 'John Doe' });

    // Jump to a specific step
    if (request.url.searchParams.get('skip')){
      // You can do it by string
      return jumpToStep("/onboarding/finish");

      // Or by index
      // return jumpToStep(3);
    }

    // Go to the next step
    return nextStep();

}

3. Call register in your loader to access previously stored data

export const loader = async ({ request }) => {
    const { data } = await onboardingWizard.register(request);

    return data?.['userProfile'] || {};
};

Use custom SessionStorage

By default remix-wizard will use createCookieSessionStorage if you do not pass a storage paramter to the createWizard function.

But you can also use any other SessionStorage you wish.

export const onboardingWizard = createWizard({
  name: 'onboarding-wizard',
  routes: ['/onboarding/org', '/onboarding/users'],
  storage: createMemorySessionStorage({
    cookie: {
      name: 'onboarding-wizard',
      httpOnly: true,
    },
  }),
});

Save session data without changing step

Sometimes you may want to save data to the session without changing the wizard step. To handle this you can use the getHeaders function exposed by register

export const action = ({ request }) => {
    const { save, nextStep, jumpToStep, prevStep, getHeaders } =
      await onboardingWizard.register(request);

    if (formData.get("intent") === "stayHere") {
      // The `getHeaders` function is used here to create the appropriate "Set-Cookie" header
      // that contains the session data.
      const headers = await getHeaders();

      return redirect('/onboarding/users', { headers });
    }


    // Go to the next step
    return nextStep();

}
