Features

  • Gets user name, email, rating.
  • User can determine the position (left or right)
  • User can determine the header, body, and button text as well as the number of star ratings.
  • Form validation (name, email, feedback and rating are required)

Why

I needed a "feedback component" for my projects. Since I was unable to find one which met my requirements (and the fact that I generally enjoy re-inventing the wheel) this is what I came up with.

Demo

Installation

The preferred way of using the component is via NPM

npm install --save react-feedback-popup

Usage

Here's a sample implementation that creates a custom popup on a dummy Create-React-App page.

import React from 'react';
import logo from './logo.svg';
import FeedBack from 'react-feedback-popup';
import './App.css';
var axios = require('axios');

function App() {
	return (
		<div className="App">
			<header className="App-header">
				<img src={logo} className="App-logo" alt="logo" />
				<p>
					Edit <code>src/App.js</code> and save to reload.
        </p>
				<a
					className="App-link"
					href="https://reactjs.org"
					target="_blank"
					rel="noopener noreferrer"
				>
					Learn React
        </a>
			</header>
			<FeedBack
				style={{zIndex:'2', marginLeft:'20px', position:'fixed'}}
				position="left"
				numberOfStars={5}
				headerText="Hello"
				bodyText="Custom Body test"
				buttonText="This is also custom"
				handleClose={() => console.log("handleclose")}
				handleSubmit={(data) => 
					fetch('https://teamgogoemail.herokuapp.com/[email protected]', {
						headers: {
							Accept: 'application/json',
							'Content-Type': 'application/json'
						},
						method: 'POST', // or 'PUT'
						body: JSON.stringify(data),
					}).then((response) => { 
						if (!response.ok) {
							return Promise.reject('Our servers are having issues! We couldn\'t send your feedback!');
						}
						response.json()
					}).then(() => {
						alert('Success!');
					}).catch((error) => {
						alert('Our servers are having issues! We couldn\'t send your feedback!', error);
					})
				}
				handleButtonClick={() => console.log("handleButtonClick")}
			/>
		</div>
	);
}

export default App;

As you can see, the fetch address is https://teamgogoemail.herokuapp.com/[email protected]. Here, you can provide use a service called https://teamgogoemail.herokuapp.com to forward the form submission to your email. There are also other 3rd party tools like formspree.io, email.js, mailchimp, Amazon Lambda functions etc to send emails once you get the user data via this React Popup Form.

Options

Option Type Default Description
position String right Position of the feedback pop. Possible options are right and left
numberOfStars Integer 5 Number of rating stars to be displayed.
headerText String "Have Feedback? 📝?" Text to be displayed on header when pop is expanded.
bodyText String "Need help? Have feedback? I'm a human so please be nice and I'll fix it!" Text to be displayed on on the body when pop is expanded
buttonText String "Feedback? ☝️" Text to be displayed on header when pop is no expanded
handleClose Function This function collapses the popup Called when close button is clicked.
handleSubmit Function alert('Success!') or alert('Error') Called when submit button is clicked.
handleButtonClick Function () Called when user clicks on Feedback button to expand the popup.

Sample Usage:

<FeedBack
	style={{zIndex:'2', marginLeft:'20px', position:'fixed'}}
	position="left"
	numberOfStars={5}
	headerText="Hello"
	bodyText="Custom Body test"
	buttonText="This is also custom"
	handleClose={() => console.log("handleclose")}
	handleSubmit={(data) => 
		fetch('https://teamgogoemail.herokuapp.com/[email protected]', {
			headers: {
				Accept: 'application/json',
				'Content-Type': 'application/json'
			},
			method: 'POST', // or 'PUT'
			body: JSON.stringify(data),
		}).then((response) => { 
			if (!response.ok) {
				return Promise.reject('Our servers are having issues! We couldn\'t send your feedback!');
			}
			response.json()
		}).then(() => {
			alert('Success!');
		}).catch((error) => {
			alert('Our servers are having issues! We couldn\'t send your feedback!', error);
		})
	}
	handleButtonClick={() => console.log("handleButtonClick")}

/>

Styling

style is a props to the Form component. You can overwrite the default values via passing CSS attributes. For example,

style={{zIndex:'2', marginLeft:'20px', position:'fixed'}}

Dev

The component is written in ES6 and uses Webpack as its build tool.
