Brief Introduction to Hooks

hooksとは？

Shareable Stateful Logic

Let you hook to React features

in function component

state

setState

Disclaimer:

more detail introduction in Dan's talk in react conf

Problem

  • No simpler stateful primitive than a class component
import React from 'react'

const User = (props) => {
  return (
    <div>
      <p>{props.name}</p>
    </div>
  )
}
import React from 'react'

class User extends React.Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props)
    this.state = { name: 'Hakata' }
    this.handleInput = this.handleInput.bind(this)
  }
  handleInput(event) {
    this.setState({name: event.target.value})
  }
  render() {
    return (
      <div>
        <p>{this.state.name}</p>
        <input 
          type="text" 
          value={this.state.name} 
          onChange={this.handleInput}
        />
      </div>
    )
  }
}

？

  • What we need is: `state` and `setState` in function component
  • Assume we have these variables in function component
  • Hook is the bridge that let you let you access the `state` and `setState`
import React from 'react'

const User = (props) => {
  return (
    <div>
      <p>{props.name}</p>
    </div>
  )
}
import React from 'react'

class User extends React.Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props)
    this.state = { name: 'Hakata' }
    this.handleInput = this.handleInput.bind(this)
  }
  handleInput(event) {
    this.setState({name: event.target.value})
  }
  render() {
    return (
      <div>
        <p>{this.state.name}</p>
        <input 
          type="text" 
          value={this.state.name} 
          onChange={this.handleInput}
        />
      </div>
    )
  }
}

import React from 'react'

const User = ( ) => {
  const name = ??
  const setName = ??

  function handleInput(event) {
    setName(event.target.value)
  }

  return (
    <div>
      <p>{name}</p>
      <input 
        type="text" 
        value={name}
        onChange={handleInput}
      />
    </div>
  )
}
import React, { useState } from 'react'

const User = ( ) => {
  const [name, setName] = useState('Hakata')

  function handleInput(event) {
    setName(event.target.value)
  }
  return (
    <div>
      <p>{name}</p>
      <input 
        type="text" 
        value={name} 
        onChange={handleInput}
      />
    </div>
  )
}





    this.state = { name: 'Hakata' }



    this.setState({name: event.target.value})

Step by step to hook

import React from 'react'

class User extends React.Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props)
    this.state = { name: 'Hakata' }
    this.handleInput = this.handleInput.bind(this)
  }
  componentDidMount() {
    document.title = this.state.name
  }
  componentDidUpdate() {
    document.title = this.state.name
  }
  handleInput(event) {
    this.setState({name: event.target.value})
  }
  render() {
    return (
      <div>
        <p>{this.state.name}</p>
        <input 
          type="text" 
          value={this.state.name} 
          onChange={this.handleInput}
        />
      </div>
    )
  }
}

import React from 'react'
import { useState } from 'react'

const User = ( ) => {
  const [name, setName] = useState('Hakata')



  function handleInput(event) {
    setName(event.target.value)
  }
  return (
    <div>
      <p>{name}</p>
      <input 
        type="text" 
        value={name} 
        onChange={handleInput}
      />
    </div>
  )
}








  componentDidMount() {
    document.title = this.state.name
  }
  componentDidUpdate() {
    document.title = this.state.name
  }

More complicated hook

import React from 'react'
import { useState, useEffect } from 'react'

const User = ( ) => {
  const [name, setName] = useState('Hakata')
  useEffect(() => {
    document.title = name
  })
  function handleInput(event) {
    setName(event.target.value)
  }
  return (
    <div>
      <p>{name}</p>
      <input 
        type="text" 
        value={name} 
        onChange={handleInput}
      />
    </div>
  )
}

Recap for a sec

  • Hooks are just function.
  • What can we do for function?
  • Extract the common part.

Let's extract the common part

import React from 'react'
import { useState, useEffect } from 'react'

const User = ( ) => {
  const [name, setName] = useState('Hakata')
  useEffect(() => {
    document.title = name
  })
  function handleInput(event) {
    setName(event.target.value)
  }
  return (
    <div>
      <p>{name}</p>
      <input 
        type="text" 
        value={name} 
        onChange={handleInput}
      />
    </div>
  )
}




  const [name, setName] = useState('Hakata')
  useEffect(() => {
    document.title = name
  })
  function handleInput(event) {
    setName(event.target.value)
  }


         {name}


        value={name} 
        onChange={handleInput}




// This is what we call "Custom Hook"
const useUser = (initVal) => {
  const [value, setValue] = useState(initVal)
  useEffect(() => {
    document.title = value
  })
  function handleChange(event) {
    setValue(event.target.value)
  }
  return { value, onChange: handleChange }
}




  const user = useUser('Hakata')








         {user.value}


        value={user.value} 
        onChange={user.onChange}








  const user = useUser('Hakata')








         {user.value}


        {...user}

Review

  • State hooks, effect hooks, custom hooks
  • They are just functions
  • Only logic, no jsx, no presentation layer related

Why Hooks matter?

Truly separate Presentation and logic

  • ↑Reusability 

  • ↑Productivity

  • ↑Easy to cooperate

Something is complex enough

How?

Web RTC

The process of WebRTC is ...

With hook

const Console = () => {
  const peer = useWebRTCPeer()
  return (
    <div>
      <h2>
        {peer.status} {/*Connected or not*/}
      </h2>
    </div>
  )
}
const Monitor = () => {
  const peer = useWebRTCPeer()
  return (
    <div>
      <GameLogicHandler data={peer.receivedData}>
    </div>
  )
}

With Hooks

  • Separate the logic part
  • Easy to mock (Just make a mock hook)
  • Speed up development

Team

  • Different projects
  • Communication
  • Meet people from all over the world
  • Environment
  • Don't know anything about Japanese
  • Don't even speak English when working in Taiwan

Can we do better?

Hooks can be better

  • `use*` is not a reliable way.
  • Tracked by order, so nested call can't be done.
  • Tricky when testing.
  • RFC

Take away

  • Make logic more shareable
  • A new way to cooperate
  • Looking inside React, Vue. This is a good trend in front-end.
