## Overview

`@lit/react` lets you create React components from web components, and React
hooks from Reactive Controllers.

## `createComponent`

While React can render Web Components, it [cannot](https://custom-elements-everywhere.com/libraries/react/results/results.html)
easily pass React props to custom element properties or event listeners.

This package provides a utility wrapper `createComponent` which makes a
React component wrapper for a custom element class. The wrapper correctly
passes React `props` to properties accepted by the custom element and listens
for events dispatched by the custom element.

### How it works

For properties, the wrapper interrogates the web component class to discover
its available properties. Then any React `props` passed with property names are
set on the custom element as properties and not attributes.

For events, `createComponent` accepts a mapping of React event prop names
to events fired by the custom element. For example passing `{onfoo: 'foo'}`
means a function passed via a `prop` named `onfoo` will be called when the
custom element fires the foo event with the event as an argument.

### Usage

Import `React`, a custom element class, and `createComponent`.

```js
import * as React from 'react';
import {createComponent} from '@lit/react';
import {MyElement} from './my-element.js';

export const MyElementComponent = createComponent({
  tagName: 'my-element',
  elementClass: MyElement,
  react: React,
  events: {
    onactivate: 'activate',
    onchange: 'change',
  },
});
```

After defining the React component, you can use it just as you would any other
React component.

```jsx
<MyElementComponent
  active={isActive}
  onactivate={(e) => (isActive = e.active)}
/>
```

#### Typescript

Event callback types can be refined by type casting with `EventName`. The
type cast helps `createComponent` correlate typed callbacks to property names in
the event property map.

Non-casted event names will fallback to an event type of `Event`.

```ts
import type {EventName} from '@lit/react';

import * as React from 'react';
import {createComponent} from '@lit/react';
import {MyElement} from './my-element.js';

export const MyElementComponent = createComponent({
  tagName: 'my-element',
  elementClass: MyElement,
  react: React,
  events: {
    onClick: 'pointerdown' as EventName<PointerEvent>,
    onChange: 'input',
  },
});
```

Event callbacks will match their type cast. In the example below, a
`PointerEvent` is expected in the `onClick` callback.

```tsx
<MyElementComponent
  onClick={(e: PointerEvent) => {
    console.log('DOM PointerEvent called!');
  }}
  onChange={(e: Event) => {
    console.log(e);
  }}
/>
```

NOTE: This type casting is not associated to any component property. Be
careful to use the corresponding type dispatched or bubbled from the
webcomponent. Incorrect types might result in additional properties, missing
properties, or properties of the wrong type.

## `useController`

Reactive Controllers allow developers to hook a component's lifecycle to bundle
together state and behavior related to a feature. They are similar to React
hooks in the user cases and capabilities, but are plain JavaScript objects
instead of functions with hidden state.

`useController` is a React hook that create and stores a Reactive Controller
and drives its lifecycle using React hooks like `useState` and
`useLayoutEffect`.

### How it works

`useController` uses `useState` to create and store an instance of a controller and a `ReactControllerHost`. It then calls the controller's lifecycle from the hook body and `useLayoutEffect` callbacks, emulating the `ReactiveElement` lifecycle as closely as possible. `ReactControllerHost` implements `addController` so that controller composition works and nested controller lifecycles are called correctly. `ReactControllerHost` also implements `requestUpdate` by calling a `useState` setter, so that a controller with new renderable state can cause its host component to re-render.

Controller timings are implemented as follows:

| Controller API   | React hook equivalent               |
| ---------------- | ----------------------------------- |
| constructor      | useState initial value              |
| hostConnected    | useState initial value              |
| hostDisconnected | useLayoutEffect cleanup, empty deps |
| hostUpdate       | hook body                           |
| hostUpdated      | useLayoutEffect                     |
| requestUpdate    | useState setter                     |
| updateComplete   | useLayoutEffect                     |

### Usage

```jsx
import * as React from 'react';
import {useController} from '@lit/react/use-controller.js';
import {MouseController} from '@example/mouse-controller';

// Write a React hook function:
const useMouse = () => {
  // Use useController to create and store a controller instance:
  const controller = useController(React, (host) => new MouseController(host));
  // return the controller: return controller;
  // or return a custom object for a more React-idiomatic API:
  return controller.position;
};

// Now use the new hook in a React component:
const Component = (props) => {
  const mousePosition = useMouse();
  return (
    <pre>
      x: {mousePosition.x}
      y: {mousePosition.y}
    </pre>
  );
};
```
