[DEPRECATED] React Kana Provider

Please use https://github.com/ohbarye/react-use-kana , React hook version of this library.

A tiny context provider to build a better Japanese form. With this library, you can implement a feature to automatically fill in kana in your form.

NOTE: This library is experimental. API, specification or anything can change in the future.

In-browser playground

• Basic usage https://codesandbox.io/s/q7598z00r9
• With TypeScript https://codesandbox.io/s/ll485m360q

Usage

You can see an example code in https://github.com/ohbarye/react-kana-provider/tree/master/example.

Installation

npm install react-kana-provider
# or
yarn add react-kana-provider

Basic

Let's see the easiest example.

import React from "react";
import ReactDOM from "react-dom";
import { KanaProvider, KanaDispatcher, KanaConsumer } from "react-kana-provider";

const App = () => (
  <KanaProvider fieldNames={["last_name"]}>
    <KanaDispatcher>
      {({ setKana }) => (
        <input
          type="text"
          onChange={e => setKana("last_name", e.target.value)}
        />
      )}
    </KanaDispatcher>
    <KanaConsumer>
      {({ kana }) => (
        <input
          type="text"
          value={kana.last_name}
        />
      )}
    </KanaConsumer>
  </KanaProvider>
);

ReactDOM.render(<App />, document.getElementById("root"));

As like above, react-kana-provider serves 3 components.

1. KanaProvider
   • KanaProvider is a provider of context. You need to pass field names as props so that the context can have multiple kana. I believe it's very common that a Japanese form has two kana fields for last name and first name.
2. KanaDispatcher
   • KanaDispatcher is a consumer of context, but it serves dispatch method to let the context update kana which corresponds to the given field name.
3. KanaConsumer
   • KanaConsumer is a consumer of context to receive an object which contains kana.

TypeScript

KanaDispatcherProps and KanaConsumerProps are available to give type definition.

import * as React from "react";
import * as ReactDOM from "react-dom";
import {
  KanaProvider,
  KanaDispatcher,
  KanaConsumer,
  KanaDispatcherProps,
  KanaConsumerProps
} from "react-kana-provider";

const App = () => (
  <KanaProvider fieldNames={["last_name"]}>
    <KanaDispatcher>
      {({ setKana }: KanaDispatcherProps) => (
        <input
          type="text"
          onChange={e => setKana("last_name", e.target.value)}
        />
      )}
    </KanaDispatcher>
    <KanaConsumer>
      {({ kana }: KanaConsumerProps) => (
        <input
          type="text"
          value={kana.last_name}
         />
      )}
    </KanaConsumer>
  </KanaProvider>
  );
);

ReactDOM.render(<App />, document.getElementById("root"));
