This disables symbol renaming in production builds. The original variable and function names are preserved. All other forms of compression applied by Closure (dead code elimination, inlining, etc) are unchanged — the final program is identical to what we were producing before, just in a more readable form. The motivation is to make it easier to debug React issues that only occur in production — the same reason we decided to start shipping sourcemaps in #28827 and #28827. However, because most apps run their own minification step on their npm dependencies, it's not necessary for us to minify the symbols before publishing — it'll be handled the app, if desired. This is the same strategy Meta has used to ship React for years. The React build itself has unminified symbols, but they get minified as part of Meta's regular build pipeline. Even if an app does not minify their npm dependencies, gzip covers most of the cost of symbol renaming anyway. This saves us from having to ship sourcemaps, which means even apps that don't have sourcemaps configured will be able to debug the React build as easily as they would any other npm dependency.
eslint-plugin-react-hooks
This ESLint plugin enforces the Rules of Hooks.
It is a part of the Hooks API for React.
Installation
Note: If you're using Create React App, please use react-scripts >= 3 instead of adding it directly.
Assuming you already have ESLint installed, run:
# npm
npm install eslint-plugin-react-hooks --save-dev
# yarn
yarn add eslint-plugin-react-hooks --dev
Then extend the recommended eslint config:
{
"extends": [
// ...
"plugin:react-hooks/recommended"
]
}
Custom Configuration
If you want more fine-grained configuration, you can instead add a snippet like this to your ESLint configuration file:
{
"plugins": [
// ...
"react-hooks"
],
"rules": {
// ...
"react-hooks/rules-of-hooks": "error",
"react-hooks/exhaustive-deps": "warn"
}
}
Advanced Configuration
exhaustive-deps can be configured to validate dependencies of custom Hooks with the additionalHooks option.
This option accepts a regex to match the names of custom Hooks that have dependencies.
{
"rules": {
// ...
"react-hooks/exhaustive-deps": ["warn", {
"additionalHooks": "(useMyCustomHook|useMyOtherCustomHook)"
}]
}
}
We suggest to use this option very sparingly, if at all. Generally saying, we recommend most custom Hooks to not use the dependencies argument, and instead provide a higher-level API that is more focused around a specific use case.
Valid and Invalid Examples
