HOCs

Shopgate ENGAGE provides Higher Order Components (HOCs) to make it easier for you to access features and information while developing your React components:


Passes the Theme API components directly into your React component.

import { withTheme } from '@shopgate/engage/core';
function MyReactComponent({ View, AppBar }) {
return (
// your component output goes here.
)
}
export default withTheme(MyReactComponent);

The theme API containing theme specific styled React components.

You can find more detailed information about the components in the Theme API documentation.


Passes contextual information about the current route into your React component.

import { withRoute } from '@shopgate/engage/core';
function MyReactComponent({ pathname, visible }) {
if (pathname !== '/some-route' || !visible) {
return null;
}
return (
// You component output goes here.
);
}
export default withRoute(MyReactComponent);

In this example you can see how you can get information about the current pathname and the visibility of the current route. This can be used to control the render output of your component and is especially helpful for creating a Custom Route.

The route context information:

Name Type Description
visible boolean Whether the route is visible in the app.
pathname string The current route’s pathname.
location string The full history location of the current route.
params Object The route parameters that are specified in the route’s pattern.
query Object The GET parameters.
state Object Custom data that can be passed to a route on when navigating.

Passes information about the currently viewed Product on a Product Detail Page to your React Component.

import { withCurrentProduct } from '@shopgate/engage/core';
function MyReactComponent({ productId, variantId }) {
return (
// You component output goes here.
);
}
export default withCurrentProduct(MyReactComponent);

The product information:

Name Type Description
productId string The product ID.
variantId string The product ID of a variant if the current product is a selected variant.
options Object The selected product options.
optionsPrices Object The price values of the selected product options.
currency string The currency code of the product.
conditioner Conditioner Helps you control the dependencies between multiple possible variant selections. This also controls if a product can only be added to the cart if a specific type of variant has been selected.

Passes helper functions for easy navigation into your React Component.

import { withNavigation } from '@shopgate/engage/core';
function MyReactComponent({ historyPush }) {
return (
<button onClick={() => historyPush({ pathname: '/some-link' })}>Click Me</button>
);
}
export default withNavigation(MyReactComponent);

The navigation helper functions:

Name Parameters Description
historyPush Receives the same arguments as the redux action. Performs the historyPush navigation action.
historyPop - Performs the historyPop navigation action.
historyReplace Receives the same arguments as the redux action. Performs the historyReplace navigation action.
historyReset - Performs the historyReset navigation action.
historyUpdate - state (Object) required: The state to be updated on the desired Route.
- routeId (string): The ID of the route to update.
Updates a certain (usually the current) route’s meta state object with new data.
