I have the following component:
import React from 'react'
import PropTypes from 'prop-types'
const MyComponent = ({ text1, text2 }) => {
return (
<div>
<p>{text1}</p>
<p>{text2}</p>
</div>
)
}
MyComponent.propTypes = {
text1: PropTypes.string,
text2: PropTypes.string,
}
MyComponent.defaultPropTypes = {
text1: 'React',
text2: 'is cool',
}
export default MyComponent
and then I am importing it like this
import MyComponent from "./MyComponent";
console.log(MyComponent.propTypes)
This prints a object with all propNames as a function. I am not able to get the type from the object. How do I get the proptype (in this example string) and "isRequired" from this component? I want to use it for automatically render a table with all possible propNames + PropType + isRequired + defaultPropType
You cant retrieve the information you are looking for by reading the propType properties. Each item in the propTypes is actually a validation wrapper function that obscures the actual type validation.
There is a way to achieve what you are looking for, but it isn't particularly pretty. See this answer .
Another option for your scenario is to create and export another static property with your component that includes the information you need. Then create a utility method to map your property data into PropTypes
For example:
// -- utility
const validators = {
string: PropTypes.string,
string_required: PropTypes.string.isRequired,
}
const getPropTypesFromValidators = (o) => {
return Object.entries(MyComponent.validators).reduce((acc, [field, validatorKey]) => {
return { ...acc, [field]: validators[validatorKey] }
}, {})
}
/// --- component
const MyComponent = ({ text1, text2 }) => {
return (
<div>
<p>{text1}</p>
<p>{text2}</p>
</div>
)
}
MyComponent.validators = {
text1: 'string',
text2: 'string_required',
}
MyComponent.propTypes = getPropTypesFromValidators(MyComponent.validators);
MyComponent.defaultPropTypes = {
text1: 'React',
text2: 'is cool',
}
// -- app
console.log(MyComponent.validators);
A second option could be to wrap the PropTypes object and add your own annotations, for example:
const AnnotatedPropTypes = Object.keys(PropTypes).reduce((acc, key) => {
const fn = (...args) => PropTypes[key](...args);
fn.description = key;
if (typeof PropTypes[key].isRequired === "function") {
fn.isRequired = (...args) => PropTypes[key].isRequired(...args);
fn.isRequired.description = `${key} (required)`;
}
return { ...acc, [key]: fn };
}, {});
// ---- component
...
MyComponent.propTypes = {
text1: AnnotatedPropTypes.string,
text2: AnnotatedPropTypes.string.isRequired,
};
console.log(MyComponent.propTypes.text1.description)
(The AnnotatedPropTypes object above is just an example and probably doesnt cover all the use cases)
