64. ⚛ 🪝 React Hooks
65. export function useEffect( create: () => (() => void) | void, deps: Array<mixed> | void | null, ): void { const dispatcher = resolveDispatcher(); return dispatcher.useEffect(create, deps); } https://github.com/facebook/react/blob/main/packages/react/src/ReactHooks.js
66. https://github.com/facebook/react/blob/main/packages/react-reconciler/src/ReactFiberHooks.new.js 🤔 const HooksDispatcherOnMount: Dispatcher = { // ... useRef: mountRef, // ... }; const HooksDispatcherOnUpdate: Dispatcher = { // ... useRef: updateRef, // ... }; const HooksDispatcherOnRerender: Dispatcher = { // ... useRef: updateRef, // ... }; const ContextOnlyDispatcher: Dispatcher = { // ... useRef: throwInvalidHookError, // ... };
67. https://github.com/facebook/react/blob/main/packages/react-reconciler/src/ReactFiberHooks.new.js function updateRef<T>(initialValue: T): {current: T} { const hook = updateWorkInProgressHook(); return hook.memoizedState; }
68. function updateWorkInProgressHook(): Hook { // This function is used both for updates and for re-renders triggered by a // render phase update. It assumes there is either a current hook we can // clone, or a work-in-progress hook from a previous render pass that we can // use as a base. When we reach the end of the base list, we must switch to // the dispatcher used for mounts. let nextCurrentHook: null | Hook; if (currentHook === null) { const current = currentlyRenderingFiber.alternate; if (current !== null) { nextCurrentHook = current.memoizedState; } else { nextCurrentHook = null; } } else { nextCurrentHook = currentHook.next; } let nextWorkInProgressHook: null | Hook; if (workInProgressHook === null) { nextWorkInProgressHook = currentlyRenderingFiber.memoizedState; } else { nextWorkInProgressHook = workInProgressHook.next; } if (nextWorkInProgressHook !== null) { // There's already a work-in-progress. Reuse it.
