useSetState

What is it needed for

This hook provides a functional counterpart to the setState method from React class components. It helps to use an object with many fields as a state, and change only the required field in a convenient way.

Advantages

Convenience of working with the state of a component that contains many states, but implemented using a hook. Allows you to get rid of a lot of boilerplate code.

How to start using

To start using this hook, you need to import it into your project:

import React from 'react';import { useSetState } from 'react-hooks-kit';
const Component = () => {  const { state, setState } = useSetState({ type: 'text', data: 'some text' });
  // State before changes  console.log(state); // { type: 'text', data: 'some text' }
  // Button component  <button onClick={() => setState({ data: 'some updated text' })}>Update the data</button>
  // State after changes  console.log(state); // { type: 'text', data: 'some updated text' }};

The following functions are available for operation:

Options
