use-read-alert v0.0.2

use-read-alert

A callback hook to read assertive alert by the screen reader.

Background

How to use

Installs the provider component. The provider component is required to use the useReadAlert hook.

import { UseReadAlertProvider } from 'use-read-alert';

React.createRoot(document.getElementById('root')).render(
  <UseReadAlertProvider>
    <App />
  </UseReadAlertProvider>
);

Then, in your React component, calls the callback function to read the alert message.

import { useReadAlert } from 'use-read-alert';

const MyComponent = () => {
  const readAlert = useReadAlert();

  readAlert('Hello, World!');

  // ...
};

API

function UseReadAlertProvider(PropsWithChildren<{
   alertClassName?: string;
}>);

function useReadAlert(): (message: string) => void;

By default, the alert role will be hidden using CSS. If you prefer to hide it using your own CSS, you can provide an alertClassName.
