Unexpected value in react context given a circular reference

Describe the bug

When changing a file (random-component.tsx), containing a circular reference to another component containing a context (value-provider.tsx), the context is set to its initial value.

This creates a problem in my scenario, because the context should never contain the initial values provided, but can (in a normal react life-cycle) only contain the data set in the ValueProvider component. This is known as the provider-pattern (https://medium.com/@vitorbritto/react-design-patterns-provider-pattern-b273ba665158).

I expect the context to never contain the initial value, but always contain the value I designed it to have (see the provider, which always wraps this component), as I have designed my app around this criteria, which always will yield true in production, but seems broken in development. I guess this is due to hot-module-reloading?

I've seen this problem both in react 19 and 18.

Reproduction

https://stackblitz.com/edit/vitejs-vite-22uuzwxi

Steps to reproduce

1. Run npm install && npm run dev
2. Open the website (e.g. http://localhost:5173/)
3. Verify, that you see "Test"2 on the screen.
4. Open the file src/page-layout.tsx in your favourite editor and replace the 2 in line 9 by 3.
5. The text on the screen now turns into 3, but I would expect to see "Test"3.

[hi-ogawa]

It looks like this is due to HMR. "Easier-to-say" suggestion is to avoid cyclic import, but this might be technically a bug.

When modifying random-component.tsx, it will (soft) invalidate importers and client will run new module random-component.tsx?t=xxx, but due to cyclic import it will also run value-provider.tsx?t=xxx but not show-value.tsx?t=xxx, thus ShowValue is accessing an old context, which is not rendered anymore (I think).

Probably more well-defined behavior would be to have full-reload at the point value-provider.tsx?t=xxx is run during HMR, but current behavior might be saving some other cyclic imports scenario where HMR can work in general, so this choice might be trade-off.

[ArnaudBarre]

Your doing two things that are know to break HMR in Vite: circular references and not following https://github.com/vitejs/vite-plugin-react/tree/main/packages/plugin-react#consistent-components-exports

If you fix one or the other it should work. I've created a lint rule proveded in the default template that can help with following consistent exports. For React context, this requires having two files: one for context + hook, and one for the provider.

Also for top level singleton context for which initial value is known ahead of time, zustand is a good replacement of React context for me with less boilerplate
