Use Toggle Hook

A hook to toggle things in react

Introduction

Different react components use a simple switch functionality and saving that in state and managing toggle functions can be cumbersome. This hooks simplifies the process of toggling components on/off. From Passwords hide/show functionality to modal hide/show functionality.

Using React State to toggle password hide/show.

export function App() {
  const [ passwordShown, setPasswordShown ] = useState(false);
  
  return (
    <>
      <input type={ passwordShown ? 'text' : 'password' } />
      <button 
        onClick={() => setPasswordShown(!passwordShown)}>Show/Hide Pass</button>
    </>
  );
}

Using toggle hook to toggle password hide/show.

export function App() {
  const toggle = useToggle();
  
  return (
    <>
      <input type={ toggle.isOpen() ? 'text' : 'password' } />
      <button 
        onClick={toggle}>Show/Hide Pass</button>
    </>
  );
}

the toggle hook simplifies the toggle functionality and returns a function. The toString of the function returns a string representation of the toggle boolean value. There's also a isOpen function on the toggle object itself which can be used to determine if the toggle value is true or false
