api
package, to be reused on React Native component, in PR #3543 by @compulim- The new layering is
core

- Includes composition mode, platform-neutral React hooks, and localization resources
- Most hooks are available in the new
api
package. Some hooks are only available on the existingcomponent
package, due to their platform dependency or coupling with visual components. For example, Web Worker, 2D canvas,useMicrophoneButton*
are not available on theapi
package - Most implementations of middleware are only available in
component
package due to their coupling with visual components or platform features. Some implementations, (e.g. card action middleware and activity grouping middleware) are available onapi
package. For example:- Carousel layout and stacked layout is only available on
component
package due to their coupling with their respective visual components - For card action middleware,
imBack
,messageBack
andpostBack
actions are available onapi
package, butcall
,openUrl
and other platform-dependent actions are only available oncomponent
package

This change will impact middleware which use downstream result.
Previously, when a middleware is called, they are passed with a single argument.
Starting from 4.10.0, multiple arguments could be passed to the middleware. All middleware should pass all arguments to the downstream middleware. This change enables future extension to the middleware pattern.
For example, a passthrough middleware was:
() => next => card => next(card)
It should become:
() => next => (...args) => next(...args)
This also applies to the render function returned by activity middleware. The previous signature was:
() => next => card => children => next(card)(children)
It should become:
() => next => (...setupArgs) => (...renderArgs) => next(...setupArgs)(...renderArgs)
Note: Please read the following section for another change in the activity middleware signature for decorators.
This change will impact activity middleware used for decoration.
Previously, when an activity middleware hid a specific activity from view, it returned a function, () => false
.
Starting in 4.10.0, if an activity needs to be hidden from the view, the middleware should return false
instead of () => false
. This change allows transcript to correctly group activities and ignore activities that are not in view.
To avoid the TypeError: x is not a function
error, all middleware should be aware that downstream middleware may return false
instead of a function.
For example, when an event activity is hidden from the view, the terminator middleware will now return false
. All decoration middleware should check if the downstream result is false
(or falsy value), and return the value as-is to upstream middleware.
Previously, a simple decorator was:
() => next => (...setupArgs) => (...renderArgs) => {
const render = next(...setupArgs);
const element = render(...renderArgs);
return element && <div>{element}</div>;
}
It should check the result from downstream middleware. If it is falsy, it should return as-is to the upstream middleware:
() => next => (...setupArgs) => {
const render = next(...setupArgs);
return render && (...renderArgs) => {
const element = render(...renderArgs);
return element && <div>{element}</div>;
};
}
