| 43 | +### Component Design System |
| 44 | + |
| 45 | +#### Design Principles |
| 46 | + |
| 47 | +1. **Single Responsibility**: Each component handles one concern |
| 48 | +2. **Composition over Inheritance**: Build complex UIs from simple pieces |
| 49 | +3. **Graceful Degradation**: Features work without optional dependencies |
| 50 | +4. **Zero Config Defaults**: Works out of the box with sensible defaults |
| 51 | +5. **TypeScript First**: Full type safety with exported interfaces |
| 52 | + |
| 53 | +#### Component Categories |
| 54 | + |
| 55 | +| Category | Purpose | Examples | |
| 56 | +|----------|---------|----------| |
| 57 | +| **Core** | Business logic & interception | `NetworkInterceptor` | |
| 58 | +| **Container** | State management & data flow | `NetworkLoggerOverlay` | |
| 59 | +| **Presentational** | Pure UI rendering | `NetworkLogItem`, `Badge`, `FilterChip` | |
| 60 | +| **Interactive** | User interaction handling | `FloatingButton`, `CopyItem` | |
| 61 | +| **Utility** | Shared functionality | `Icon`, `JsonViewer` | |
| 62 | + |
| 63 | +#### Reusable Component Guidelines |
| 64 | + |
| 65 | +```typescript |
| 66 | +// Component Template |
| 67 | +interface ComponentProps { |
| 68 | + // Required props first |
| 69 | + requiredProp: string; |
| 70 | + // Optional props with defaults |
| 71 | + optionalProp?: boolean; |
| 72 | + // Style overrides last |
| 73 | + style?: StyleProp<ViewStyle>; |
| 74 | +} |
| 75 | + |
| 76 | +const Component: React.FC<ComponentProps> = ({ |
| 77 | + requiredProp, |
| 78 | + optionalProp = false, |
| 79 | + style, |
| 80 | +}) => { |
| 81 | + // Implementation |
| 82 | +}; |
| 83 | +``` |
| 84 | + |
| 85 | +### State Management |
| 86 | + |
| 87 | +- **Local State**: React `useState` for component-specific state |
| 88 | +- **Shared State**: Pub/sub pattern via `NetworkLogger.subscribe()` |
| 89 | +- **No External Dependencies**: No Redux/MobX required |
| 90 | + |
| 91 | +### Styling Conventions |
| 92 | + |
| 93 | +- Use `StyleSheet.create()` for all styles |
| 94 | +- Define styles at bottom of component file |
| 95 | +- Use semantic color names from `constants/colors.ts` |
| 96 | +- Support both light and dark themes |
| 97 | + |
| 98 | +## Configuration |
| 99 | + |
| 100 | +### NetworkLogger Config Interface |
| 101 | + |
| 102 | +```typescript |
| 103 | +interface NetworkLoggerConfig { |
| 104 | + maxLogs: number; // Default: 100 |
| 105 | + ignoredUrls: string[]; // URL patterns to ignore |
| 106 | + ignoredDomains: string[]; // Domains to ignore |
| 107 | + redactHeaders: string[]; // Headers to mask (e.g., 'Authorization') |
| 108 | + enablePersistence: boolean; // Persist logs across sessions |
| 109 | + slowRequestThreshold: number; // ms threshold for slow request warning |
| 110 | +} |
| 111 | +``` |
| 112 | + |
| 113 | +### Overlay Config Interface |
| 114 | + |
| 115 | +```typescript |
| 116 | +interface NetworkLoggerOverlayProps { |
| 117 | + networkLogger: NetworkLogger; |
| 118 | + // Feature flags |
| 119 | + draggable?: boolean; |
| 120 | + enableDeviceShake?: boolean; |
| 121 | + useCopyToClipboard?: boolean; |
| 122 | + // Display options |
| 123 | + showRequestHeader?: boolean; |
| 124 | + showResponseHeader?: boolean; |
| 125 | + theme?: 'light' | 'dark' | 'auto'; |
| 126 | + // Filtering |
| 127 | + defaultFilters?: FilterConfig; |
| 128 | +} |
| 129 | +``` |
| 130 | + |
| 131 | +## Development Workflow |
| 132 | + |
| 133 | +### Commands |
| 134 | + |
| 135 | +```bash |
| 136 | +# Install dependencies |
| 137 | +yarn install |
| 138 | + |
| 139 | +# Run example app |
| 140 | +yarn example start |
| 141 | + |
| 142 | +# Type checking |
| 143 | +yarn typecheck |
| 144 | + |
| 145 | +# Linting |
| 146 | +yarn lint |
| 147 | + |
| 148 | +# Run tests |
| 149 | +yarn test |
| 150 | + |
| 151 | +# Build library |
| 152 | +yarn prepare |
| 153 | + |
| 154 | +# Release |
| 155 | +yarn release |
| 156 | +``` |
| 157 | + |
| 158 | +### Adding New Features |
| 159 | + |
| 160 | +1. Create feature branch from `main` |
| 161 | +2. Add types to `types.ts` |
| 162 | +3. Implement in appropriate directory (components/hooks/utils) |
| 163 | +4. Export from index files |
| 164 | +5. Add example usage in `example/src/` |
| 165 | +6. Update README if public API changes |
| 166 | +7. Write tests for new functionality |
| 167 | + |
| 168 | +### Testing Strategy |
| 169 | + |
| 170 | +- Unit tests for utility functions |
| 171 | +- Component tests for UI components |
| 172 | +- Integration tests for interceptor logic |
| 173 | +- Manual testing via example app |
| 174 | + |
| 175 | +## Optional Peer Dependencies |
| 176 | + |
| 177 | +| Package | Required For | |
| 178 | +|---------|--------------| |
| 179 | +| `react-native-gesture-handler` | Draggable floating button | |
| 180 | +| `react-native-reanimated` | Smooth animations | |
| 181 | +| `react-native-shake` | Device shake detection | |
| 182 | +| `@react-native-clipboard/clipboard` | Copy to clipboard | |
| 183 | + |
| 184 | +## Code Style |
| 185 | + |
| 186 | +- Use TypeScript strict mode |
| 187 | +- Prefer functional components with hooks |
| 188 | +- Use explicit return types on functions |
| 189 | +- Document public APIs with JSDoc |
| 190 | +- Follow React Native community conventions |
| 191 | + |
| 192 | +## Performance Guidelines |
| 193 | + |
| 194 | +- Limit stored logs (default: 100) |
| 195 | +- Use `FlatList` with optimization props |
| 196 | +- Lazy load optional dependencies |
| 197 | +- Avoid re-renders with `React.memo` where appropriate |
| 198 | +- Use `useCallback` for event handlers passed as props |
