Description: The Search component is a React component that provides a search bar functionality for filtering data. It leverages the Input component for the search bar UI and handles keyboard events for triggering the search.

Methods

Method: handleKeyPress

Description: The handleKeyPress function handles keyboard events within the search input. It specifically checks for the "Escape" key to blur the input and the "/" key to focus the input.

Parameters:

  • e (Event): The keyboard event object.

Returns:

  • void: The function does not return any value.

Example:

// Example usage within the component
  useEffect(() => {
    // ... other code ...

    document.addEventListener("keydown", handleKeyPress);
    return () => document.removeEventListener("keydown", handleKeyPress);
  });

Description: The search function filters the data based on the user's input in the search bar. It converts both the search term and the data to lowercase for case-insensitive matching.

Parameters:

  • e (Event): The change event object triggered by the search input.

Returns:

  • void: The function does not return any value.

Example:

// Example usage within the component
      <Input
        // ... other props ...
        onChange={search}
      />

Properties

Property: data

Description: The data property holds the array of data objects to be filtered by the search component.

Type: Array: An array of objects.

Example:

// Example usage within the component
const Search = ({ data, // ... other props ... }) => {
  // ... component logic ...
}

Property: setData

Description: The setData property is a function that updates the data state with the filtered data.

Type: Function: A function that takes an array of objects as an argument.

Example:

// Example usage within the component
const Search = ({ setData, // ... other props ... }) => {
  // ... component logic ...
}

Property: toSearch

Description: The toSearch property specifies the key within each data object that should be searched against the user's input.

Type: String: A string representing the key name.

Example:

// Example usage within the component
const Search = ({ toSearch, // ... other props ... }) => {
  // ... component logic ...
}

Property: className

Description: The className property allows customization of the search component's CSS class names.

Type: String: A string representing the CSS class names.

Example:

// Example usage within the component
const Search = ({ className, // ... other props ... }) => {
  // ... component logic ...
}

Property: ...props

Description: The ...props property allows passing any additional props to the Input component.

Type: Object: An object containing additional properties for the Input component.

Example:

// Example usage within the component
const Search = ({ data, // ... other props ... }) => {
  // ... component logic ...

  return (
    // ... other code ...
    <Input
      // ... other props ...
      {...props}
    />
    // ... other code ...
  )
}

Considerations

  • The Search component relies on the Input component for rendering the search bar.
  • The toSearch property is crucial for filtering the data correctly; ensure it aligns with the key name in your data objects.
  • The component utilizes a deep copy of the data using JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(data)) to avoid accidental modification of the original data during filtering.
  • The component handles keyboard events for "Escape" and "/" keys to provide convenient search control.
  • Consider adding error handling for potential issues like invalid data formats or missing keys.
