useEventListener

Se você acabar adicionando muitos event listeners usando useEffect, você pode considerar mudar essa lógica para um hook customizado. Nessa receita abaixo, nós vamos criar o hook useEventListener que gerencia checando se o addEventListener é suportado, adicionando o callback ao eventListener, e removendo ao limpar o componente.

import { useState, useRef, useEffect, useCallback } from "react";

// Usage
function App() {
  // State for storing mouse coordinates
  const [coords, setCoords] = useState({ x: 0, y: 0 });

  // Event handler utilizing useCallback ...
  // ... so that reference never changes.
  const handler = useCallback(
    ({ clientX, clientY }) => {
      // Update coordinates
      setCoords({ x: clientX, y: clientY });
    },
    [setCoords]
  );

  // Add event listener using our hook
  useEventListener("mousemove", handler);

  return (
    <h1>
      The mouse position is ({coords.x}, {coords.y})
    </h1>
  );
}

// Hook
function useEventListener(eventName, handler, element = window) {
  // Create a ref that stores handler
  const savedHandler = useRef();

  // Update ref.current value if handler changes.
  // This allows our effect below to always get latest handler ...
  // ... without us needing to pass it in effect deps array ...
  // ... and potentially cause effect to re-run every render.
  useEffect(() => {
    savedHandler.current = handler;
  }, [handler]);

  useEffect(
    () => {
      // Make sure element supports addEventListener
      // On
      const isSupported = element && element.addEventListener;
      if (!isSupported) return;

      // Create event listener that calls handler function stored in ref
      const eventListener = (event) => savedHandler.current(event);

      // Add event listener
      element.addEventListener(eventName, eventListener);

      // Remove event listener on cleanup
      return () => {
        element.removeEventListener(eventName, eventListener);
      };
    },
    [eventName, element] // Re-run if eventName or element changes
  );
}
