Close Modal Popup using Esc key on keyboard


I need to close the modal also using the "ESC" key, at the moment it is closing the "CLOSE" and "CONFIRM" button. i'm using reactstrap, react hooks. keyboard {show} and handleClose it didn't work.

Here is the code:


const DeleteUserModal = props => {
    const { user, show } = props;

    const deleteUser = async () => {
        await props.removeUser(user);
        props.onCloseModal();
    };

    const handleKeyPress = target => {
        if (target.charCode === ENTER_KEY) {
            deleteUser();
        }
    };
    


    return (
        <div onKeyPress={handleKeyPress}>
            <Modal isOpen={show} toggle={props.onCloseModal}  >
                
                <ModalHeader toggle={props.onCloseModal}>
                    <IntlMessages id="modal.delete.user.title" />
                </ModalHeader>

                <ModalBody>
                    <IntlMessages id="modal.delete.user.description" />
                </ModalBody>

                <ModalFooter>
                    <Button className="cancel" onClick={props.onCloseModal}>
                        <IntlMessages id="modal.common.cancel" />
                    </Button>
                    <Button className="action" onClick={deleteUser}>
                        <IntlMessages id="modal.common.ok" />
                    </Button>
                </ModalFooter>
            </Modal>
        </div>
    );
};

export default DeleteUserModal;

follows the modal with two actions


Solution

  • In vanilla JavaScript, you could do:

    document.onkeydown = function (evt) {
        if (evt.keyCode == 27) {
            // Escape key pressed
            props.onCloseModal();
        }
    };
