babel-plugin-functional-hmr's Introduction

!!!444!!! THIS PLUGIN IS DEPRECATED. PLEASE DON'T USE IT WITH React 0.61 AND ABOVE

React Native 0.61 fixes the problem with Fast Refresh.

babel-plugin-functional-hmr

A Babel plugin allows HMR for functional components in React Native.

Limitations

If you try to use hooks in your source they won't work (you will get an "Hooks can only be called inside the body of a function component").

Why?

Hot module reload (HMR) has been broken for functional components in React Native.

The "hot loading" message appears, but the changes don't show up.

Installation

In most cases, you should install babel-plugin-functional-hmr as a development dependency (with --save-dev).

npm install --save-dev babel-plugin-functional-hmr

or

yarn add babel-plugin-functional-hmr -D

The transformation plugin is typically used only in development. See the examples below for more details.

Usage

Via .babelrc (Recommended)

Add the following line to your .babelrc file:

Without options:

{
  "plugins": ["functional-hmr"]
}

With options:

{
  "plugins": [
    ["functional-hmr"]
  ]
}

Via CLI

babel --plugins functional-hmr script.js

Via Node API

require("babel-core").transform("code", {
  plugins: ["functional-hmr"]
});

Important Note

From Issue #5: "Editing the .babelrc won't actually change the setup, unless you start the packager with yarn start --reset-cache to clean the transform cache."

Technical details

Class

The plugin does not transform components defined as classes, such as:

export default class Button extends Component {
    render() {
        return (
            <TouchableNativeFeedback onPress={this.props.onPress}>
                <Text style={{ color: 'green' }}>
                    {this.props.title}
                </Text>
            </TouchableNativeFeedback>
        );
    }
}

Arrow functions

The plugin transforms arrow expressions if:

  • it has JSX return
  • it has only one object parameter or no parameters

It does not transform files located in node_modules folder.

From:

const Button = ({ children, onPress }) =>
    <TouchableNativeFeedback onPress={onPress}>
        <Text style={{ color: 'blue' }}>
            {children}
        </Text>
    </TouchableNativeFeedback>;

export default Button;

to:

import reactTransform from 'react-transform-hmr';

function wrapComponent(id, Component) {
    const t = reactTransform({
        components: {
            [id]: {
                displayName: id
            }
        },
        locals: [module],
        imports: [require("react")]
    });
    return t(Component, id);
}

class __Button extends require("react").Component {
    render() {
        const children = this.props.children,
              onPress = this.props.onPress;
        return (<TouchableNativeFeedback onPress={onPress}>
        <Text style={{ color: 'blue' }}>
            {children}
        </Text>
    </TouchableNativeFeedback>);
    }

}

const Button = wrapComponent('Button', __Button);
export default Button;
