useSetting.ts

This file contains a custom React Hook that manages the functionality to update and mutate application settings. It provides utilities to update settings and set specific paths needed by the application. Below is a detailed documentation of the functionality provided by the useSetting.ts file.

Overview

The useSetting hook is responsible for:

• Updating a setting asynchronously.
• Setting the specific folder paths for application dependencies.

Dependencies

The hook uses:

• useCallback from React for memoizing functions.
• ISetting interface from @shared/interfaces for typing the settings object.

Usage

This hook can be used to update and manage application settings efficiently, leveraging React's rendering optimizations.

Hook Functions

updateSetting

• Description: Asynchronously updates a setting.
• Type: async
• Arguments:
  • setting: ISetting
• Returns: Promise<void>

const updateSetting = useCallback(async (setting: ISetting): Promise<void> => {
  await window.kweenb.methods.updateSetting(setting);
}, []);

setJackFolderPath

• Description: Sets the path for the Jack folder.
• Arguments:
  • jackFolderPath: string
• Returns: void

const setJackFolderPath = useCallback((jackFolderPath) => {
  window.kweenb.actions.setJackFolderPath(jackFolderPath);
}, []);

setJacktripBinPath

• Description: Sets the path for the Jacktrip binary.
• Arguments:
  • jacktripBinPath: string
• Returns: void

const setJacktripBinPath = useCallback((jacktripBinPath) => {
  window.kweenb.actions.setJacktripBinPath(jacktripBinPath);
}, []);

Return Value

The hook returns an object containing the following methods:

Method	Description
updateSetting	Updates a setting asynchronously.
setJackFolderPath	Sets the path for the Jack folder.
setJacktripBinPath	Sets the path for the Jacktrip binary.

Example

Here's an example of how you might use the useSetting hook in a React component:

import React from "react";
import { useSetting } from "./useSetting";

const SettingsComponent = () => {
  const { updateSetting, setJackFolderPath, setJacktripBinPath } = useSetting();

  // Example usage
  const handleUpdate = async () => {
    await updateSetting({
      /* setting object */
    });
  };

  const handleSetPaths = () => {
    setJackFolderPath("/path/to/jack");
    setJacktripBinPath("/path/to/jacktrip/bin");
  };

  return (
    <div>
      <button onClick={handleUpdate}>Update Setting</button>
      <button onClick={handleSetPaths}>Set Paths</button>
    </div>
  );
};

eort default SettingsComponent;

Interfaces

ISetting

• Description: Interface representing a setting object.
• Properties: (Defined in @shared/interfaces)

Conclusion

The useSetting hook is a powerful tool for managing settings in the application, providing asynchronous updates and path management with ease. This can greatly enhance the efficiency and organization of your code.

Note: Make sure that the window.kweenb methods and actions are properly defined and available in your environment for the hook to function correctly.
