React contexter

Use context with Higher Order Components for better testing and reuse.

The logic is simple: put the context you want as props.

import contexter from 'react-contexter';

function MyComponent({ fromParent }) {
  return <button onClick={ fromParent }>Click Me!</button>;
};

var ContextedComponent = contexter({
  fromParent: React.PropTypes.func.isRequired,
}, MyComponent);

And that's it. MyComponent can be tester with your favorite testing tools, just inject the right prop and you're ready to go.

Install

just npm install --save react-contexter as you normally do.

API

createContexter(contextTypes)

creates a wrapper function for creating context containers:

import { createContexter } from 'react-contexter';
var contexter = createContexter({
  fromParent: React.PropTypes.func.isRequired,
});

var ContextedComponentOne = contexter(ComponentOne);
var ContextedComponentTwo = contexter(ComponentTwo);

this can help you creating custom utility functions for your applications. you can expose contexters in their own module for reusing them.

contexter(contextTypes, Component)

creates a contexter that injects contextTypes and executes it with Component.

import contexter from 'react-contexter';

function MyComponent({ fromParent }) {
  return <button onClick={ fromParent }>Click Me!</button>;
};

var ContextedComponent = contexter({
  fromParent: React.PropTypes.func.isRequired,
}, MyComponent);
