react-ff

Feature folders is an approach for structuring components in React. It is based on creating a folder which contains all the stuff needed for component (including child components). You expose only needed components (or methods) through the index file.

Usage:

npx react-ff create <ComponentName> [destination] [flags]
npx react-ff create User
npx react-ff create User ./routes/Main
npx react-ff create User ./routes/Main -s -t

Defaults:

react-ff uses Typescript as a default language. You can specify to use Javascript by providing -J or --javascript flag

npx react-ff create User -J
npx react-ff create User -javascript

Tests

After including -t or --test optional flag test file will be added. Test prefix could be provided as well (test is default).

npx react-ff create User -t

Additional file User.test.tsx with boilerplate will be added to folder User.

npx react-ff create User -t spec

Additional file User.spec.tsx with boilerplate will be added to folder User.

Styles

After including -s or --style optional flag style file will be added. Style type could be provided as well (css is default).

npx react-ff create User -s scss

Function vs Class components

For component generation react-ff uses function approach (without any default state). This is the content of the newly generated Search component:

import React, { FunctionComponent } from 'react';

interface SearchProps {
};

export const Search: FunctionComponent<SearchProps> = ({}): JSX.Element => {
    return (
        <div></div>
    );
};

If you prefer Class components (or traditional way of providing state) you can add -C or --class flag. So the following command:

npx react-ff create Search -C

will produce such content

import React, { Component } from 'react';

interface SearchState {
};

interface SearchProps {
};

export class Search extends Component<SearchProps, SearchState> {
    state = {
    };

    render(): JSX.Element {
        return (
            <div></div>
        );
    }
};
