This adds an experimental `unstable_postpone(reason)` API.
Currently we don't have a way to model effectively an Infinite Promise.
I.e. something that suspends but never resolves. The reason this is
useful is because you might have something else that unblocks it later.
E.g. by updating in place later, or by client rendering.
On the client this works to model as an Infinite Promise (in fact,
that's what this implementation does). However, in Fizz and Flight that
doesn't work because the stream needs to end at some point. We don't
have any way of knowing that we're suspended on infinite promises. It's
not enough to tag the promises because you could await those and thus
creating new promises. The only way we really have to signal this
through a series of indirections like async functions, is by throwing.
It's not 100% safe because these values can be caught but it's the best
we can do.
Effectively `postpone(reason)` behaves like a built-in [Catch
Boundary](https://github.com/facebook/react/pull/26854). It's like
`raise(Postpone, reason)` except it's built-in so it needs to be able to
be encoded and caught by Suspense boundaries.
In Flight and Fizz these behave pretty much the same as errors. Flight
just forwards it to retrigger on the client. In Fizz they just trigger
client rendering which itself might just postpone again or fill in the
value. The difference is how they get logged.
In Flight and Fizz they log to `onPostpone(reason)` instead of
`onError(error)`. This log is meant to help find deopts on the server
like finding places where you fall back to client rendering. The reason
that you pass in is for that purpose to help the reason for any deopts.
I do track the stack trace in DEV but I don't currently expose it to
`onPostpone`. This seems like a limitation. It might be better to expose
the Postpone object which is an Error object but that's more of an
implementation detail. I could also pass it as a second argument.
On the client after hydration they don't get passed to
`onRecoverableError`. There's no global `onPostpone` API to capture
postponed things on the client just like there's no `onError`. At that
point it's just assumed to be intentional. It doesn't have any `digest`
or reason passed to the client since it's not logged.
There are some hacky solutions that currently just tries to reuse as
much of the existing code as possible but should be more properly
implemented.
- Fiber is currently just converting it to a fake Promise object so that
it behaves like an infinite Promise.
- Fizz is encoding the magic digest string `"POSTPONE"` in the HTML so
we know to ignore it but it should probably just be something neater
that doesn't share namespace with digests.
Next I plan on using this in the `/static` entry points for additional
features.
Why "postpone"? It's basically a synonym to "defer" but we plan on using
"defer" for other purposes and it's overloaded anyway.
## Summary
This was not exposed as a dynamic flag in the build for facebook www. By
adding it, we'll be able to roll this out incrementally before cleaning
up this code altogether.
## How did you test this change?
`yarn build`
Before changes, `disableSchedulerTimeoutInWorkLoop` flag is not included
in ReactDOM-* build output for facebook www. Afterwards, it is included.
This uses the same mechanism as [large
strings](https://github.com/facebook/react/pull/26932) to encode chunks
of length based binary data in the RSC payload behind a flag.
I introduce a new BinaryChunk type that's specific to each stream and
ways to convert into it. That's because we sometimes need all chunks to
be Uint8Array for the output, even if the source is another array buffer
view, and sometimes we need to clone it before transferring.
Each type of typed array is its own row tag. This lets us ensure that
the instance is directly in the right format in the cached entry instead
of creating a wrapper at each reference. Ideally this is also how
Map/Set should work but those are lazy which complicates that approach a
bit.
We assume both server and client use little-endian for now. If we want
to support other modes, we'd convert it to/from little-endian so that
the transfer protocol is always little-endian. That way the common
clients can be the fastest possible.
So far this only implements Server to Client. Still need to implement
Client to Server for parity.
NOTE: This is the first time we make RSC effectively a binary format.
This is not compatible with existing SSR techniques which serialize the
stream as unicode in the HTML. To be compatible, those implementations
would have to use base64 or something like that. Which is what we'll do
when we move this technique to be built-in to Fizz.
## Summary
This PR cleans up `useMutableSource`. This has been blocked by a
remaining dependency internally at Meta, but that has now been deleted.

## Summary
<!--
Explain the **motivation** for making this change. What existing problem
does the pull request solve?
-->
We are upgrading React 17 codebase to React18, and `StrictMode` has been
great for surfacing potential production bugs on React18 for class
components. There are non-trivial number of test failures caused by
double `useEffect` in StrictMode. To prioritize surfacing and fixing
issues that will break in production now, we need a flag to turn off
double `useEffect` for now in StrictMode temporarily. This is a
Meta-only hack for rolling out `createRoot` and we will fast follow to
remove it and use full strict mode.

## Overview
Does a few things:
- Renames `enableSyncDefaultUpdates` to
`forceConcurrentByDefaultForTesting`
- Changes the way it's used so it's dead-code eliminated separate from
`allowConcurrentByDefault`
- Deletes a bunch of the gated code
The gates that are deleted are unnecessary now. We were keeping them
when we originally thought we would come back to being concurrent by
default. But we've shifted and now sync-by default is the desired
behavior long term, so there's no need to keep all these forked tests
around.
I'll follow up to delete more of the forked behavior if possible.
Ideally we wouldn't need this flag even if we're still using
`allowConcurrentByDefault`.
useMemoCache wasn't previously supported in the DevTools, so any attempt
to inspect a component using the hook would result in a
`dispatcher.useMemoCache is not a function (it is undefined)` error.
This is enabled in the canary channels, but because it's relatively
untested, we'll disable it at Meta until they're ready to start trying
it out. It can change some behavior even if you don't intentionally
start using the API.
The reason it's not a dynamic flag is that it affects the external Fizz
runtime, which currently can't read flags at runtime.
This puts the change introduced by #26611 behind a flag until Meta is
able to roll it out. Disabling the flag reverts back to the old
behavior, where retries are throttled if there's still data remaining in
the tree, but not if all the data has finished loading.
The new behavior is still enabled in the public builds.
This lets you pass a function to `<form action={...}>` or `<button
formAction={...}>` or `<input type="submit formAction={...}>`. This will
behave basically like a `javascript:` URL except not quite implemented
that way. This is a convenience for the `onSubmit={e => {
e.preventDefault(); const fromData = new FormData(e.target); ... }`
pattern.
You can still implement a custom `onSubmit` handler and if it calls
`preventDefault`, it won't invoke the action, just like it would if you
used a full page form navigation or javascript urls. It behaves just
like a navigation and we might implement it with the Navigation API in
the future.
Currently this is just a synchronous function but in a follow up this
will accept async functions, handle pending states and handle errors.
This is implemented by setting `javascript:` URLs, but these only exist
to trigger an error message if something goes wrong instead of
navigating away. Like if you called `stopPropagation` to prevent React
from handling it or if you called `form.submit()` instead of
`form.requestSubmit()` which by-passes the `submit` event. If CSP is
used to ban `javascript:` urls, those will trigger errors when these
URLs are invoked which would be a different error message but it's still
there to notify the user that something went wrong in the plumbing.
Next up is improving the SSR state with action replaying and progressive
enhancement.
Implements initial (client-only) support for async actions behind a
flag. This is an experimental feature and the design isn't completely
finalized but we're getting closer. It will be layered alongside other
features we're working on, so it may not feel complete when considered
in isolation.
The basic description is you can pass an async function to
`startTransition` and all the transition updates that are scheduled
inside that async function will be grouped together. The `isPending`
flag will be set to true immediately, and only set back to false once
the async action has completed (as well as all the updates that it
triggers).
The ideal behavior would be that all updates spawned by the async action
are automatically inferred and grouped together; however, doing this
properly requires the upcoming (stage 2) Async Context API, which is not
yet implemented by browsers. In the meantime, we will fake this by
grouping together all transition updates that occur until the async
function has terminated. This can lead to overgrouping between unrelated
actions, which is not wrong per se, just not ideal.
If the `useTransition` hook is removed from the UI before an async
action has completed — for example, if the user navigates to a new page
— subsequent transitions will no longer be grouped with together with
that action.
Another consequence of the lack of Async Context is that if you call
`setState` inside an action but after an `await`, it must be wrapped in
`startTransition` in order to be grouped properly. If we didn't require
this, then there would be no way to distinguish action updates from
urgent updates caused by user input, too. This is an unfortunate footgun
but we can likely detect the most common mistakes using a lint rule.
Once Async Context lands in browsers, we can start warning in dev if we
detect an update that hasn't been wrapped in `startTransition`. Then,
longer term, once the feature is ubiquitous, we can rely on it for real
and allow you to call `setState` without the additional wrapper.
Things that are _not_ yet implemented in this PR, but will be added as
follow ups:
- Support for non-hook form of `startTransition`
- Canceling the async action scope if the `useTransition` hook is
deleted from the UI
- Anything related to server actions
This removes the concept of `prepareUpdate()`, behind a flag.
React Native already does everything in the commit phase, but generates
a temporary update payload before applying it.
React Fabric does it both in the render phase. Now it just moves it to a
single host config.
For DOM I forked updateProperties into one that does diffing and
updating in one pass vs just applying a pre-diffed updatePayload.
There are a few downsides of this approach:
- If only "children" has changed, we end up scheduling an update to be
done in the commit phase. Since we traverse through it anyway, it's
probably not much extra.
- It does more work in the commit phase so for a large tree that is
mostly unchanged, it'll stall longer.
- It does some extra work for special cases since that work happens if
anything has changed. We no longer have a deep bailout.
- The special cases now have to each replicate the "clean up old props"
loop, leading to extra code.
The benefit is that this doesn't allocate temporary extra objects
(possibly multiple per element if the array has to resize). It's less
work overall. It also gives us an option to reuse this function for a
sync render optimization.
Another benefit is that if we do the loop in the commit phase I can do
further optimizations by reading all props that I need for special cases
in that loop instead of polymorphic reads from props. This is what I'd
like to do in future refactors that would be stacked on top of this
change.
This reverts commit b2ae9ddb3b.
While the feature flag is fully rolled out, these tests are also testing
behavior set with an unstable flag on root, which for now we want to
preserve.
Not sure if there's a better way then adding a dynamic feature flag to
the www build?
When React receives new input (via `setState`, a Suspense promise
resolution, and so on), it needs to ensure there's a rendering task
associated with the update. Most of this happens
`ensureRootIsScheduled`.
If a single event contains multiple updates, we end up running the
scheduling code once per update. But this is wasteful because we really
only need to run it once, at the end of the event (or in the case of
flushSync, at the end of the scope function's execution).
So this PR moves the scheduling logic to happen in a microtask instead.
In some cases, we will force it run earlier than that, like for
`flushSync`, but since updates are batched by default, it will almost
always happen in the microtask. Even for discrete updates.
In production, this should have no observable behavior difference. In a
testing environment that uses `act`, this should also not have a
behavior difference because React will push these tasks to an internal
`act` queue.
However, tests that do not use `act` and do not simulate an actual
production environment (like an e2e test) may be affected. For example,
before this change, if a test were to call `setState` outside of `act`
and then immediately call `jest.runAllTimers()`, the update would be
synchronously applied. After this change, that will no longer work
because the rendering task (a timer, in this case) isn't scheduled until
after the microtask queue has run.
I don't expect this to be an issue in practice because most people do
not write their tests this way. They either use `act`, or they write
e2e-style tests.
The biggest exception has been... our own internal test suite. Until
recently, many of our tests were written in a way that accidentally
relied on the updates being scheduled synchronously. Over the past few
weeks, @tyao1 and I have gradually converted the test suite to use a new
set of testing helpers that are resilient to this implementation detail.
(There are also some old Relay tests that were written in the style of
React's internal test suite. Those will need to be fixed, too.)
The larger motivation behind this change, aside from a minor performance
improvement, is we intend to use this new microtask to perform
additional logic that doesn't yet exist. Like inferring the priority of
a custom event.
This flag is already enabled everywhere except for www, which is blocked
by a few tests that assert on the old behavior. Once www is ready, I'll
land this.
This is a change to some undefined behavior that we though we would do
at one point but decided not to roll out. It's already disabled
everywhere, so this just deletes the branch from the implementation and
the tests.
Today if something suspends, React will continue rendering the siblings
of that component.
Our original rationale for prerendering the siblings of a suspended
component was to initiate any lazy fetches that they might contain. This
was when we were more bullish about lazy fetching being a good idea some
of the time (when combined with prefetching), as opposed to our latest
thinking, which is that it's almost always a bad idea.
Another rationale for the original behavior was that the render was I/O
bound, anyway, so we might as do some extra work in the meantime. But
this was before we had the concept of instant loading states: when
navigating to a new screen, it's better to show a loading state as soon
as you can (often a skeleton UI), rather than delay the transition.
(There are still cases where we block the render, when a suitable
loading state is not available; it's just not _all_ cases where
something suspends.) So the biggest issue with our existing
implementation is that the prerendering of the siblings happens within
the same render pass as the one that suspended — _before_ the loading
state appears.
What we should do instead is immediately unwind the stack as soon as
something suspends, to unblock the loading state.
If we want to preserve the ability to prerender the siblings, what we
could do is schedule special render pass immediately after the fallback
is displayed. This is likely what we'll do in the future. However, in
the new implementation of `use`, there's another reason we don't
prerender siblings: so we can preserve the state of the stack when
something suspends, and resume where we left of when the promise
resolves without replaying the parents. The only way to do this
currently is to suspend the entire work loop. Fiber does not currently
support rendering multiple siblings in "parallel". Once you move onto
the next sibling, the stack of the previous sibling is discarded and
cannot be restored. We do plan to implement this feature, but it will
require a not-insignificant refactor.
Given that lazy data fetching is already bad for performance, the best
trade off for now seems to be to disable prerendering of siblings. This
gives us the best performance characteristics when you're following best
practices (i.e. hoist data fetches to Server Components or route
loaders), at the expense of making an already bad pattern a bit worse.
Later, when we implement resumable context stacks, we can reenable
sibling prerendering. Though even then the use case will mostly be to
prerender the CPU-bound work, not lazy fetches.
I'm trying to get rid of all meta programming in the module scope so
that closure can do a better job figuring out cyclic dependencies and
ability to reorder.
This is converting a lot of the patterns that assign functions
conditionally to using function declarations instead.
```
let fn;
if (__DEV__) {
fn = function() {
...
};
}
```
->
```
function fn() {
if (__DEV__) {
...
}
}
```
This doesn't need its own set of flags. We use things like `__PROFILE__`
in the regular feature flags file to fork for the `react-dom/profiling`
build so we can do the same here if needed but I don't think we actually
need to fork this anywhere as far as I can tell.
(This only affects our own internal repo; it's not a public API.)
I think most of us agree this is a less confusing name. It's possible
someone will confuse it with `console.log`. If that becomes a problem we
can warn in dev or something.
The old version of prettier we were using didn't support the Flow syntax
to access properties in a type using `SomeType['prop']`. This updates
`prettier` and `rollup-plugin-prettier` to the latest versions.
I added the prettier config `arrowParens: "avoid"` to reduce the diff
size as the default has changed in Prettier 2.0. The largest amount of
changes comes from function expressions now having a space. This doesn't
have an option to preserve the old behavior, so we have to update this.
## Summary
The flag was first added in #16157 and was rolled out to employees in
D17430095. #25997 removed this flag because it wasn't dynamically set to
a value in www. The www side was mistakenly removed in D41851685 due to
deprecation of a TypedJSModule but we still want to keep this flag, so
let's add it back in + add a GK on the www side to match the previous
rollout.
See D42574435 for the dynamic value change in www
## How did you test this change?
```
yarn test
yarn test --prod
```
I noticed this was an experiment concluded 16 months ago (#21679) that
this extra work is beneficial
to break up cycles leaking memory in product code.
These values are never imported into `ReactFeatureFlags.www.js`, so
they're unused:
- `allowConcurrentByDefault`
- `consoleManagedByDevToolsDuringStrictMode`
These values are never set in the WWW module
(https://fburl.com/code/dsb2ohv8), so they're always `undefined` on www:
- `createRootStrictEffectsByDefault`
- `enableClientRenderFallbackOnTextMismatch`

This is the other approach for unifying default and sync lane
https://github.com/facebook/react/pull/25524.
The approach in that PR is to merge default and continuous lane into the
sync lane, and use a new field to track the priority. But there are a
couple places that field will be needed, and it is difficult to
correctly reset the field when there is no sync lane.
In this PR we take the other approach that doesn't remove any lane, but
batch them to get the behavior we want.

Flow introduced a new syntax to annotated the context type of a
function, this tries to update the rest and add 1 example usage.
- 2b1fb91a55 already added the changes
required for eslint.
- Jest transform is updated to use the recommended `hermes-parser` which
can parse current and Flow syntax and will be updated in the future.
- Rollup uses a new plugin to strip the flow types. This isn't ideal as
the npm module is deprecated in favor of using `hermes-parser`, but I
couldn't figure out how to integrate that with Rollup.
We originally had grand plans for using this Event concept for more but
now it's only meant to be used in combination with effects.
It's an Event in the FRP terms, that is triggered from an Effect.
Technically it can also be from another function that itself is
triggered from an existing side-effect but that's kind of an advanced
case.
The canonical case is an effect that triggers an event:
```js
const onHappened = useEffectEvent(() => ...);
useEffect(() => {
onHappened();
}, []);
```
This isn't the right way to do this, but internally we have some
restrictions so we need to add an indirection. Let's land this now so we
can catch up our sync and then fix forward from there.

We've heard from multiple contributors that the Reconciler forking
mechanism was confusing and/or annoying to deal with. Since it's
currently unused and there's no immediate plans to start using it again,
this removes the forking.
Fully removing the fork is split into 2 steps to preserve file history:
**This PR**
- remove `enableNewReconciler` feature flag.
- remove `unstable_isNewReconciler` export
- remove eslint rules for cross fork imports
- remove `*.new.js` files and update imports
- merge non-suffixed files into `*.old` files where both exist
(sometimes types were defined there)
**#25775**
- rename `*.old` files
This improves the error message a bit and ensures that we recommend
putting the key first, not last, which ensures that the faster
`jsx-runtime` is used.
This only affects the modern "automatic" JSX transform.
