View demo. View examples.

Why?

This library was built to be flexible:

  • It doesn't assume markup, styling, or template.
  • It only provides the bare minimum so you could build your custom confirm.

How It Works

This library uses the render props pattern. You can read more about it here.

Installation

npm install @srph/react-confirm --save

Script tags

If you're not using a bundler like Browserify or Webpack, simply add the script tag after your React script tag.

<!-- Script tags for React and other libraries -->
<script src="https://unpkg.com/@srph/react-confirm/dist/react-confirm.min.js"></script>

This library is exposed as ReactConfirm (e.g., ReactConfirm.confirm and ReactConfirm.ConfirmRoot).

Usage

ConfirmRoot must be placed on your top-most component (aka root component).

import React from 'react'
import {confirm, ConfirmRoot} from '@srph/react-confirm'
import Modal from './Modal'

class App extends React.Component {
  render() {
    return (
      <div>
        <ConfirmRoot>
          {({active, text, actions}) => (
            <Modal isOpen={active} onRequestClose={actions.dismiss}>
              {text}
              <button onClick={actions.proceed}>Proceed</button>
              <button onClick={actions.dismiss}>Dismiss</button>
            </Modal>
          )}
        </ConfirmRoot>

        <button onClick={this.handleClick}>
          Open Confirmation
        </button>
      </div>
    )
  }

  handleClick() {
    confirm(`You haven't finished your post yet. Do you want to leave without finishing?`)
      .then(() => {
        console.log('Proceed')
      }, () => {
        console.log('Dismissed')
      })
  }
}

export default App;

Hooks

In case you need to check if we're confirming, like for instance, we don't want our modal to be closed when escape is pressed.

import React from 'react'
import {confirm} from '@srph/react-confirm'
import MyModal from './MyModal'

class App extends React.Component {
  state = {
    confirming: false
  }

  render() {
    return (
      <div>
        <MyModal enableEscapeClose={this.state.confirming}>
          // ...
          <button onClick={this.handleClick}>
            Submit Form
          </button>
        </MyModal>
      </div>
    )
  }

  handleClick() {
    this.setState({ confirming: true })

    confirm(`You haven't finished your post yet. Do you want to leave without finishing?`)
      .then(() => {
        this.setState({ confirming: false })
      }, () => {
        this.setState({ confirming: false })
      })
  }
}

Custom options

If you want to pass any kind of other options, anything you pass to confirm(opts) except text is available through the render props' options. In the example below, we're allowing custom titles and extra actions / buttons.

import React from 'react'
import {confirm} from '@srph/react-confirm'
import MyModal from './MyModal'

class CustomTitle extends React.Component {
  render() {
    return (
      <div>
        <ConfirmRoot>
          {({active, text, actions, options}) => (
            <Modal isOpen={active} onRequestClose={actions.dismiss}>
              {options.title || 'Confirmation'}

              <button className="button" onClick={actions.dismiss}>Dismiss</button>

              {options.buttons && options.buttons.map((button, i) =>
                <button className="button" onClick={button.onClick}>{button.text}</button>
              )}

              <button className="button -primary" onClick={actions.proceed}>Proceed</button>
            </Modal>
          )}
        </ConfirmRoot>

        <button className="button" onClick={this.handleClick}>
          Open Confirmation
        </button>
      </div>
    )
  }

  handleClick() {
    confirm({
      title: 'Leave page?',
      text:`You haven't finished your post yet. Do you want to leave without finishing?`,
      buttons: [{
        text: 'Say something cool',
        onClick() {
          console.log('something cool')
        }
      }]
    }).then(() => {
      console.log('Proceed')
    }, () => {
      console.log('Dismissed')
    })
  }
}

This is kept flexible as everything is up to you.
