React SDK 1.3.1

For React developers, we provide a React SDK that allows you to easily integrate our services into your React application.

Installation

bash
npm install @adhese/sdk-react @adhese/sdk
bash
pnpm add @adhese/sdk-react @adhese/sdk
bash
yarn add @adhese/sdk-react @adhese/sdk
bash
bun add @adhese/sdk-react @adhese/sdk

AdheseProvider

The AdheseProvider component is a context provider that makes the Adhese instance available to all child components. It should be placed at the root of your application. It accepts an options prop that is passed to the createAdhese function. When the options prop changes, the Adhese instance is recreated. This provider replaces the createAdhese function.

NOTE

The AdheseProvider component is a wrapper around the createAdhese function. It is required to use the AdheseProvider if you want to use the useAdhese or useAdheseSlot hooks.

jsx
import { AdheseProvider } from '@adhese/sdk-react';

function App() {
  return (
    <AdheseProvider options={{
      account: 'your-account-id',
      initialSlots: [
        {
          format: 'slot-format' // You can pass in initial slots here that will be pre fetched. When you create your component with same format, slot, and parameters it will use this prefetched data and start rendering immediately.
        }
      ]
    }}
    >
      <YourApp />
    </AdheseProvider>
  );
}

useAdhese

The useAdhese hook returns the Adhese instance that is created by the AdheseProvider. It can be used to access the Adhese instance in any child component.

jsx
import { useAdhese } from '@adhese/sdk-react';

function YourComponent() {
  const adhese = useAdhese();
  // Use the adhese instance
}

useAdheseSlot

The useAdheseSlot hook returns a slot object for a given slot name. Use the to create a slot in your component.

It accepts the following arguments:

  • elementRef: A ref to the element that the slot should be attached to.
  • options: An object with options for the slot. This object is passed to the adhese.addSlot function.

When your component is unmounted, the slot is automatically removed from the Adhese instance.

jsx
import { useAdheseSlot } from '@adhese/sdk-react';

function YourComponent() {
  const elementRef = useRef(null);

  const slot = useAdheseSlot(elementRef, {
    format: 'your-format',
  });

  return (
    <div ref={elementRef} />
  );
}

AdheseSlot component

The AdheseSlot component is a wrapper around the useAdheseSlot hook. It accepts the same options as the useAdheseSlot hook as props and renders the slot in the DOM.

jsx
import { AdheseSlot } from '@adhese/sdk-react';

function YourComponent() {
  return (
    <AdheseSlot format="your-format" />
  );
}

Custom slot rendering

Like described in the slots documentation, you can use the onBeforeRender callback to intercept the to be rendered ad. Using the onBeforeRender hook you can only render static markup which is not ideal when you are in a React environment. Ideally you'd want to utilize the whole React feature set. The AdheseSlot component offers a prop called render, this prop expects a callback that returns JSX. The slot data is passed as an argument.

jsx
import { AdheseSlot } from '@adhese/sdk-react';

function YourComponent() {
  return (
    <div>
      <AdheseSlot
        format="flex"
        slot="1"
        render={slot => <DynamicSlot {...slot} />}
      />
      <AdheseSlot
        format="flex"
        slot="2"
        render={slot => <DynamicSlot {...slot} />}
      />
    </div>
  );
}

function DynamicSlot(slot) {
  return (
    <div>
      <h1>{ad.tag.title}</h1>
      <p>{ad.tag.description}</p>
    </div>
  );
}

Placeholders

During loading you render a placeholder.

jsx
import { AdheseSlot } from '@adhese/sdk-react';

function YourComponent() {
  return (
    <div>
      <AdheseSlot
        format="flex"
        slot="1"
        placeholder={<div>Loading...</div>}
        render={slot => <DynamicSlot {...slot} />}
      />
    </div>
  );
}
