I am trying to access LaunchDarkly flags from my App context. The code looks like:
import { useState, useEffect } from 'react';
import { Helmet } from 'react-helmet';
import { MuiPickersUtilsProvider } from '@material-ui/pickers';
import DateFnsUtils from '@date-io/date-fns';
import { ApolloProvider } from 'react-apollo';
import { Route, Router, Switch } from 'react-router-dom';
import { withLDProvider } from 'launchdarkly-react-client-sdk';
import { Loading } from '@ap/owl-ui-controls';
import { useAuth0 } from './context/Authentication';
import LabelContext from './context/LabelContext';
import { CommunityByNameContext } from './context/CommunityByNameContext';
import { segment_init } from './utils/segment';
import withConfig, { ConfigEnum } from './utils/withConfig';
import client from './utils/graphQLClient';
import labels from './config/labels';
import CurrentUser from './services/CurrentUser';
import Layout from './Layout';
import history from './utils/history';
import { SearchCommunity } from './common/Filters/SearchNameFilter/findCommunitiesQuery';
import AmplitudeContext, { AmplitudeData } from './context/AmplitudeContext';
import { DisclosuresContextProvider } from './context/DisclosuresContext';
import placeService from './services/placesService';
import { FeaturedCommunitiesIdsProvider } from './context/FeaturedCommunitiesIdsContext';
import { optimizelyInit } from './utils/optimizely';
import { FamilyFileContextProvider } from './context/FamilyFileContext';
const segmentKey = withConfig(ConfigEnum.SEGMENT_KEY);
const currentUserString = localStorage.getItem('CURRENT_USER');
const App = () => {
const { loading } = useAuth0();
const [currentUser, setCurrentUser] = useState(currentUserString ? JSON.parse(currentUserString) : null);
const [communityByName, setCommunityByName] = useState<SearchCommunity | null>(null);
const [amplitude, setAmplitude] = useState<AmplitudeData>({});
useEffect(() => {
placeService.init();
}, []);
if (loading) {
return <Loading />;
}
return (
<>
<Helmet>
<title>Beacon</title>
<script type="text/javascript">{optimizelyInit(flags)}</script>
<script type="text/javascript">{segment_init(segmentKey, currentUser)}</script>
</Helmet>
<LabelContext.Provider value={labels}>
<CommunityByNameContext.Provider value={{ communityByName, setCommunityByName }}>
<FeaturedCommunitiesIdsProvider>
<AmplitudeContext.Provider value={{ amplitude, setAmplitude }}>
<MuiPickersUtilsProvider utils={DateFnsUtils}>
<ApolloProvider client={client}>
{/* @ts-ignore */}
<CurrentUser onUserChanged={(currentUser: any) => setCurrentUser(currentUser)}>
<FamilyFileContextProvider>
<DisclosuresContextProvider>
<Router history={history}>
<Switch>
<Route path="/communities" component={Layout} />
</Switch>
</Router>
</DisclosuresContextProvider>
</FamilyFileContextProvider>
</CurrentUser>
</ApolloProvider>
</MuiPickersUtilsProvider>
</AmplitudeContext.Provider>
</FeaturedCommunitiesIdsProvider>
</CommunityByNameContext.Provider>
</LabelContext.Provider>
</>
);
};
export default withLDProvider({
clientSideID: withConfig(ConfigEnum.LD_CLIENT_SIDE_ID),
})(App);
My nested components, like for example <CurrentUser />
get LD flags, and I am able to access them as:
const CurrentUser = ({ children, flags, onUserChanged })
However, I also need LD flags inside <App />
so I could do:
<Helmet>
<title>Beacon</title>
{flags.optimizely && <script type="text/javascript">{optimizelyInit(flags)}</script>}
<script type="text/javascript">{segment_init(segmentKey, currentUser)}</script>
</Helmet>
I have tried accessing flags with const App = ({ flags })
, but the value is always undefined
.
I even tried sticking the below into a component
const DocumentHead = ({ flags, segmentKey, currentUser }) => (
<Helmet>
<title>Beacon</title>
<script type="text/javascript">{optimizelyInit(flags)}</script>
<script type="text/javascript">{segment_init(segmentKey, currentUser)}</script>
</Helmet>
);
Flags are still undefined.
Suggestions?
Apparently, there is a useFlags
hook. We can get flags as:
const flags = useFlags();
This can be called from the <App />
component.
