react-instantsearch-hooks-router-nextjs

This package is a router for React InstantSearch Hooks that is compatible with Next.js routing.

> ⚠️ This function cannot be used in conjunction with getStaticProps(). Use getServerSideProps() or client-side rendering instead.

Installation

yarn add react-instantsearch-hooks-router-nextjs
# or with npm
npm install react-instantsearch-hooks-router-nextjs

Usage

You need to pass the Next.js router singleton that you can import from next/router.

If you are doing SSR with the getServerState and InstantSearchSSRProvider from react-instantsearch-hooks-server, you need to pass the url prop to createInstantSearchRouterNext's serverUrl option :

import singletonRouter from 'next/router';
import { createInstantSearchRouterNext } from 'react-instantsearch-hooks-router-nextjs';

export default function Page({ serverState, url }) {
  return (
    
      
        {/* ... */}
      
    
  );
}

If you are not doing SSR but only CSR, you can omit the serverUrl option:

import singletonRouter from 'next/router';
import { createInstantSearchRouterNext } from 'react-instantsearch-hooks-router-nextjs';

export default function Page() {
  return (
    
      {/* ... */}
    
  );
}

Lastly, if you had custom routing logic in your app, you can pass it to the createInstantSearchRouterNext's routerOptions option:

import singletonRouter from 'next/router';
import { createInstantSearchRouterNext } from 'react-instantsearch-hooks-router-nextjs';

export default function Page({ serverState, url }) {
  return (
    {/* ... */}
      
        {/* ... */}
      
    {/* ... */}
  );
}

API

The options are :

• singletonRouter: SingletonRouter: the required Next.js router singleton.
• serverUrl?: string: the URL of the page on the server. Required if you are doing SSR with getServerState and InstantSearchSSRProvider.
• routerOptions?: RouterOptions: the options passed to the history router. See the documentation for more details.

For troubleshooting purposes, some other options are available :

• beforeStart?: (onUpdate: () => void) => void: a function called before the router starts. You can use it to inform InstantSearch to update on router events by calling onUpdate.
• beforeDispose?: () => void: a function called before the router disposes. You can use it to clean up handlers you added in beforeStart.
• beforePopState?: (options: { state: NextHistoryState, ownBeforePopState: BeforePopStateCallback, libraryBeforePopState: BeforePopStateCallback }) => boolean: a function used by the Next.js router to know whether it should trigger SSR when using back/forward buttons. You can use it to override the default one by writing your own logic. The ownBeforePopState is the pre-existing handler that you may have set yourself, and the libraryBeforePopState is the default one from the library.
