Consuming ReactContext (specifically) Consumers across multiple packages

318 views Asked by At

Context I created a Context and exported both Producer and Consumer. I am now wrapping my app level example with Producer. I want to be able to consume ContextConsumer inside a module which is served by a different package.

However, when I try to use ContextConsumer inside such module, it throws out the error, cannot call function of undefined.

Code Structure The below is how I have my code structured.

Context-v1 package

Context.js

import React, { Component, createContext } from 'react';
import PropTypes from 'prop-types';
import ZIndexUtils from './zIndexUtils';

const { node } = PropTypes;
const { Provider, Consumer: IDSContextConsumer } = createContext();

class IDSContextProvider extends Component {
  static propTypes = {
    children: node.isRequired
  };

  state = {
    topZIndex: ZIndexUtils.getTopZIndex(),
    incrementTopZIndex: ZIndexUtils.incrementTopZIndex
  };

  render() {
    return (
      <Provider
        value={{
          topZIndex: this.state.topZIndex,
          incrementTopZIndex: this.state.incrementTopZIndex
        }}
      >
        {this.props.children}
      </Provider>
    );
  }
}

export { IDSContextProvider };

export default IDSContextConsumer;

index.js

import IDSContextConsumer, { IDSContextProvider } from './Context';

export {
  IDSContextProvider,
  IDSContextConsumer
};

Dropdown-v1 package This component makes use of another component called as Menu-v1 which is where I am trying to use Consumer to access the increment function that I am passing down from app level example.

import { IDSContextConsumer } from '@ids/context-v1';
...
...
render() {
  return (
    <IDSContextConsumer>
      {
        (context) => (
          <ZIndex assignZIndex getTopZindex={context.incrementTopZIndex}>
            <MenuList
              className={className}
              autoFocus={autoFocus}
              aria-label={this.props['aria-label']}
              onKeyDown={this.handleKeyDown}
              onBlur={this.handleMenuBlur}
              reference={reference}
              ref={refReactDom}
              style={style}
            >
              {items}
            </MenuList>
          </ZIndex>
        )
      }
    </IDSContextConsumer>
  )
}

App example Finally, I am trying to use this Dropdown module into my app. Which is where I expect to see the incrementer function be passed in via context.

import { IDSContextProvider } from '@ids/context-v1'; import { Dropdown, MenuItem } from '@ids/dropdown';

render() {
    return (
      <div>
        <IDSContextProvider>
          <Modal
            open={this.state.openModalDialog}
            onCloseModalDialog={this.handleModalClosing}
            title="Modal with Dropdown"
          >
            <Dropdown
              onBlur={() => console.log('Dropdown blurrrrr')}
              label="Name"
              value={this.state.value}
              onChange={this.handleDropdownChange}
            >
              <MenuItem value="1">Banana</MenuItem>
              <MenuItem value="2">Apple</MenuItem>
              <MenuItem value="3">Guava</MenuItem>
              <MenuItem value="4">Mango</MenuItem>
            </Dropdown>
          </Modal>
        </IDSContextProvider>
        <button className="divRenderButton" onClick={this.handleModalOpening}>Open Modal</button>
      </div>
    );
  }

Modal component in my example

<Portal>
        <Transition
          enterClassName={`${prefix}--slideIn`}
          transition={open ? transitions.enter : transitions.exit}
          onEntered={onShow}
          onExited={onClose}
          exitClassName={`${prefix}--slideOut`}
          unmountOnExit
        >
          <IDSContextConsumer>
            {
              (context) => (
                <ZIndex
                  assignZIndex={open}
                  underlay
                  getTopZindex={context.incrementTopZIndex}
                >
                  <div
                    className={open ? 'divContainerWithUnderlay' : ''}
                  >
                    {
                      open &&
                      <div>
                        <h1 className="divContent">{title}</h1>
                        {
                          this.props.children ? this.props.children : null
                        }
                        <button className="divRenderButton" onClick={this.closeModalDialog}>Close Modal</button>
                      </div>
                    }
                  </div>
                </ZIndex>
              )
            }
          </IDSContextConsumer>
        </Transition>
      </Portal>

Requesting earnest help on this. I have tried the solutions from this forum before and cannot find any approach where the modules from different packages share the context.
