• Use by adding import AsyncButton from '@wojtekmaj/react-async-button' and passing pendingConfig, successConfig.

Usage

Here's an example of basic usage:

import React from 'react';
import AsyncButton from '@wojtekmaj/react-async-button';

const pendingConfig = {
  children: 'Loading…',
  disabled: true,
};

const successConfig = {
  children: 'Done',
};

const errorConfig = {
  children: 'Try again',
};

function MyComponent() {
  async function onClick(event) {
    // Do some async stuff
  }

  return (
    <AsyncButton
      onClick={onClick}
      pendingConfig={pendingConfig}
      successConfig={successConfig}
      errorConfig={errorConfig}
    >
      Do async stuff
    </AsyncButton>
  );
}

User guide

AsyncButton

Renders a button.

Props

Prop name	Description	Default value	Example values
as	Component to render button with.	"button"	String: "custom-button" React component: MyButton
errorConfig	Props to override default props with when onClick async function throws.	{}	{ children: 'Try again' }
onClick	A function, a function returning a Promise, or an async function.	n/a
pendingConfig	Props to override default props when button has been clicked but onClick function did not yet resolve.	{}	{ children: 'Loading…' }
resetTimeout	Time in milliseconds after which AsyncButton should stop using errorConfig / successConfig overrides.	2000	5000
successConfig	Props to override default props with when onClick async function resolves.	{}	{ children: 'Done' }

…and everything else a normal <button> would accept!

Accessibility

For accessibility purposes, we recommend setting aria-live="polite" and aria-atomic="true" props so that button label changes are announced to the user using assitive technologies.
