useShared

Use the given hook with state shared with other React components.

useShared can only be used in components rendered within a <SharedHooksProvider>.

function useCounter(startingNumber) {
  return useReducer(n => n + 1, startingNumber)
}
function Counter({ shareKey }) {
  const [count, addOne] = useShared(shareKey, useCounter, 1)
  return <div onClick={() => addOne()}>Count: {count}</div>
}

<Counter shareKey="a" />
<Counter shareKey="a" />
<Counter shareKey="b" />
<Counter shareKey="b" />

Hooks can be provided as an inline function, however this may cause a rules of hooks linter to fail. If using such a linter, define your custom hooks as their own functions and pass in arguments as illustrated above.

// Using inline custom hooks
function Counter({ shareKey }) {
  const [count, addOne] = useShared(shareKey, () =>
    useReducer(n => n + 1, 1)
  )
  return <div onClick={() => addOne()}>Count: {count}</div>
}
