A jscodeshift transformer to create react class component from pure functional component. Works both for JavaScript and TypeScript.

Turns this:

function MyComponent(props) {
  return <div>{props.message}</div>;
};

into this:

class MyComponent extends React.Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);
  }

  render() {
    const {
      props,
    } = this;

    return <div>{props.message}</div>;
  }
}

It makes some assumptions about functions that can be transformed:

• function should has zero or one argument (i.e. props, though the name me be different)
• the argument, if present, should be an identifier (foo => {..}) or object pattern(({ foo }) => {...}). This means array patterns (([foo]) => {...}) and default function parameters ((foo = defaultFoo) => {...}) don't work. props is always an object and default props are handled differently in React
• the functions should not appear inside other functions, be property of an objects or method of a class

See jscodeshift for more info on transformations.

Basic manual usage in node (you probably don't need it):

const jscodeshift = require('jscodeshift');
const pureToClass = require('react-pure-to-class');

const options = {
  reactComponent: 'React.Component',
  printOptions: {
    quote: 'single',
    trailingComma: true,
  },
};

const source = ''; // your source code here;

const transformedSource = pureToClass(
  { source },
  { jscodeshift },
  options // or empty object for defaults
);

It also works as a cli, which may be useful in vim to transform selected code, like so:

:'<,'>!react-pure-to-class
