How to implement service(concept in AngularJS) -like component in React

Question

All:

I am pretty new to React from AngularJS. In AngularJS, there is service dependency inject which can provide a service instance to do data fetching, processing, etc

Answer 1

I prefer to create a service in another file that exposes the 'public' functions through module.exports.

e.g.

module.exports = {
  foo: function(){ return bar; }
}

which is then referenced by Components using

import myService from './routetoservice/myService'
