Usage

• You can use it as follows by destructuring its return object:

import React from 'react';
import useModals from 'react-use-modals';

const MyComponent = () => {
  const { modalRef, isOpen, openModal, closeModal } = useModals();

  return (
    <>
      <button onClick={openModal}>Open Modal</button>
      <dialog ref={modalRef}>
        <p>Modal Content</p>
        <button onClick={closeModal}>Close Modal</button>
      </dialog>
      <p>Modal is {isOpen ? 'open' : 'closed'}</p>
    </>
  );
};

• You can also use it with a return array just like React does:
• This is particularly useful when you must use multiple useModals.

import React from 'react';
import useModals from 'react-use-modals';

const MyComponent = () => {
  const [modalRef, isOpen, openModal, closeModal] = useModals({
    preventCloseOnEscape: true,
  });
  const [modalRef2, isOpen2, openModal2, closeModal2] = useModals({
    closeOnBackdropClick: true,
    onCloseCallback: (modalId) =>
      console.log(`modal with id: ${modalId} closed!`),
  });

  return (
    <>
      <button onClick={openModal}>Open Modal</button>
      <dialog ref={modalRef}>
        <p>Modal Content</p>
        <button onClick={closeModal}>Close Modal</button>
      </dialog>
      <p>Modal is {isOpen ? 'open' : 'closed'}</p>
      <br />
      <br />
      <br />
      <button onClick={openModal2}>Open Modal2</button>
      <dialog ref={modalRef2} id="modal-id-2">
        <p>Modal2 Content</p>
        <button onClick={closeModal2}>Close Modal2</button>
      </dialog>
      <p>Modal2 is {isOpen2 ? 'open' : 'closed'}</p>
    </>
  );
};
