Though there is a similar question I am failing to create a file with multiple functions. Not sure if the method is already outdated or not as RN is evolving very fast. How
I am sure this can help. Create fileA anywhere in the directory and export all the functions.
export const func1=()=>{
// do stuff
}
export const func2=()=>{
// do stuff
}
export const func3=()=>{
// do stuff
}
export const func4=()=>{
// do stuff
}
export const func5=()=>{
// do stuff
}
Here, in your React component class, you can simply write one import statement.
import React from 'react';
import {func1,func2,func3} from 'path_to_fileA';
class HtmlComponents extends React.Component {
constructor(props){
super(props);
this.rippleClickFunction=this.rippleClickFunction.bind(this);
}
rippleClickFunction(){
//do stuff.
// foo==bar
func1(data);
func2(data)
}
render() {
return (
<article>
<h1>React Components</h1>
<RippleButton onClick={this.rippleClickFunction}/>
</article>
);
}
}
export default HtmlComponents;
An alternative is to create a helper file where you have a const object with functions as properties of the object. This way you only export and import one object.
helpers.js
const helpers = {
helper1: function(){
},
helper2: function(param1){
},
helper3: function(param1, param2){
}
}
export default helpers;
Then, import like this:
import helpers from './helpers';
and use like this:
helpers.helper1();
helpers.helper2('value1');
helpers.helper3('value1', 'value2');
To achieve what you want and have a better organisation through your files, you can create a index.js to export your helper files.
Let's say you have a folder called /helpers. Inside this folder you can create your functions divided by content, actions, or anything you like.
Example:
/* Utils.js */
/* This file contains functions you can use anywhere in your application */
function formatName(label) {
// your logic
}
function formatDate(date) {
// your logic
}
// Now you have to export each function you want
export {
formatName,
formatDate,
};
Let's create another file which has functions to help you with tables:
/* Table.js */
/* Table file contains functions to help you when working with tables */
function getColumnsFromData(data) {
// your logic
}
function formatCell(data) {
// your logic
}
// Export each function
export {
getColumnsFromData,
formatCell,
};
Now the trick is to have a index.js inside the helpers folder:
/* Index.js */
/* Inside this file you will import your other helper files */
// Import each file using the * notation
// This will import automatically every function exported by these files
import * as Utils from './Utils.js';
import * as Table from './Table.js';
// Export again
export {
Utils,
Table,
};
Now you can import then separately to use each function:
import { Table, Utils } from 'helpers';
const columns = Table.getColumnsFromData(data);
Table.formatCell(cell);
const myName = Utils.formatName(someNameVariable);
Hope it can help to organise your files in a better way.
If you want to use class, you can do this.
Helper.js
function x(){}
function y(){}
export default class Helper{
static x(){ x(); }
static y(){ y(); }
}
App.js
import Helper from 'helper.js';
/****/
Helper.x
Quick note: You are importing a class, you can't call properties on a class unless they are static properties. Read more about classes here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Classes
There's an easy way to do this, though. If you are making helper functions, you should instead make a file that exports functions like this:
export function HelloChandu() {
}
export function HelloTester() {
}
Then import them like so:
import { HelloChandu } from './helpers'
or...
import functions from './helpers'
then
functions.HelloChandu
i prefer to create folder his name is Utils and inside create page index that contain what that think you helper by
const findByAttr = (component,attr) => {
const wrapper=component.find(`[data-test='${attr}']`);
return wrapper;
}
const FUNCTION_NAME = (component,attr) => {
const wrapper=component.find(`[data-test='${attr}']`);
return wrapper;
}
export {findByAttr, FUNCTION_NAME}
When you need to use this it should be imported as use "{}" because you did not use the default keyword look
import {FUNCTION_NAME,findByAttr} from'.whare file is store/utils/index'
