Note, if you are try to lint before running tests, and you are depending on the test helper to build your locales, your linting will fail because the translations won't be built yet.
|
35

|

The fix is either to
|
37
|

1) run the rake task to build the translations before running the lint command or

2) to run the tests first.

|
11

+
|
12
|
+
In order to solve the issues regarding React Hooks compatibility, the number of parameters
|
13
|
+
for functions is used to determine if you have a render function that will get invoked to
|
14
|
+
return a React component, or you are registering a React component defined by a function.
|
15
|
+
|
16
|
+
Registered Objects are of the following types:
|
17
|
+
|
18
|
+
##### Correct
|
19
|
+
Either of these will work:
|
20
|
+
1. Take **2 params** and return **a React function or class component**. A function component is a function
|
21
|
+
that takes zero or one params and returns a React Element, like JSX.
|
22
|
+
```js
|
23
|
+
export default (props, _railsContext) => () => <Component {...props} />;
|
24
|
+
```
|
25
|
+
|
26
|
+
2. Take only zero or one params and you return a React Element, often JSX.
|
27
|
+
```js
|
28
|
+
export default (props) => <Component {...props} />;
|
29
|
+
```
|
30
|
+
##### Broken, as this function takes two params and it returns a React Element from a JSX Literal
|
31
|
+
```js
|
32
|
+
export default (props, _railsContext) => <Component {...props} />;
|
33
|
+
```
|
34
|
+
|
35
|
+
If you make this mistake, you'll get this warning
|
36
|
+
`Warning: React.createElement: type is invalid -- expected a string (for built-in components) or a class/function (for composite components) but got: <Fragment />. Did you accidentally export a JSX literal instead of a component?`
|
37
|
+
|
38
|
+
And this error:
|
39
|
+
`react-dom.development.js:23965 Uncaught Error: Element type is invalid: expected a string (for built-in components) or a class/function (for composite components) but got: object.`
|
40
|
+
|
41
|
+
In this example, you need to wrap the `<Component {...props} />` in a function call like this which
|
42
|
+
results in the return value being a React function component.
|
43
|
+
|
44
|
+
```js
|
45
|
+
export default (props, _railsContext) => () => <Component {...props} />;
|
46
|
+
```
|
47
|
+
|
48
|
+
If you have a pure component, taking one or zero parameters, and you have an unnecessary function
|
49
|
+
wrapper such that you're returning a function rather than a React Element, then:
|
50
|
+
|
51
|
+
1. You won't see anything render.
|
52
|
+
2. You will see this warning in development mode: `Warning: Functions are not valid as a React child. This may happen if you return a Component instead of <Component /> from render. Or maybe you meant to call this function rather than return it.`
