Getting Started

Install the package in your project.

npm install use-imperative-portal

Wrap the root component with PortalProvider.

import { PortalProvider } from 'use-imperative-portal'

ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById('root')).render(
    <PortalProvider>
        <App />
    </PortalProvider>
)

The ReactNode passed through the portal is added behind the children of PortalProvider.

function App() {
    const openPortal = useImperativePortal()

    useEffect(() => {
        const portal1 = openPortal(<p>bbb</p>)
        const portal2 = openPortal(<p>ccc</p>)

        // ...
    }, [])

    return <div>aaa</div>
}

Output

<div>aaa</div>
<p>bbb</p>
<p>ccc</p>

API

useImperativePortal()

This is a React hooks that returns the openPortal() function.

import { useImperativePortal } from 'use-imperative-portal'

function App() {
    const openPortal = useImperativePortal()

    // ...
}

openPortal(node)

This function render the ReactNode argument to the endpoint of the portal. And returns the imperative portal object.

function onPopupOpenerClick() {
    const portal = openPortal(<Popup onClose={() => portal.close()} />)

    // ...
}

portal.update(...args)

When you open the portal, you can use a function instead of ReactNode and can be updated later.

const portal = openPortal(({ title = 'Hi!', description = 'I luv you' } = {}) => (
    <section>
        <h3>{title}</h3>
        <p>{description}</p>
    </section>
))

// ...

portal.update({
    title: 'Hello!',
    description: 'I like u',
})

If it is a render using a function, the default value of the argument for the initial rendering is required.

portal.close()

Close the portal and remove the rendered nodes.

portal.isClosed

This value is whether the portal is closed.

console.log(portal.isClosed) // => false

portal.close()

console.log(portal.isClosed) // => true

\

This is a Provider component that shares the portal context.

import { PortalProvider } from 'use-imperative-portal'

// ...

root.render(
    <PortalProvider>
        <App />
    </PortalProvider>
)

providerProps.withEndpoint

If withEndpoint is false, the endpoint automatically specified in the provider will be disabled. The default is true.

<PortalProvider withEndpoint={false} />

This is useful when setting the endpoint directly.

\

ReactNode, which is passed to the portal, is rendered to the place where this component is located. This is useful when you want to change the endpoint position.

import { PortalEndpoint, PortalProvider } from 'use-imperative-portal'

//...

root.render(
    <PortalProvider withEndpoint={false}>
        <div>
            <PortalEndpoint />
        </div>
        <App />
    </PortalProvider>
)

createPortalContext()

Create a new portal context. Instead of using the Default context, it is useful for developing apps by mixing multiple portals.

import { createPortalContext, useImperativePortal } from 'use-imperative-portal'

const modal = createPortalContext()
const toast = createPortalContext()

//...

root.render(
    <modal.Provider withEndpoint={false}>
        <toast.Provider>
            <div>
                <modal.Endpoint />
            </div>
            <App />
        </toast.Provider>
    </modal.Provider>
)

function App() {
    const openModalPortal = useImperativePortal(modal)
    const openToastPortal = useImperativePortal(toast)

    //...
}
