React Desktop macOS SegmentedControl Component

0 0 2 minutes read

React Desktop is a popular library to bring the native desktop experience to the web. This library provides macOS and Windows OS components. A SegmentedControl component is a linear set of two or more segments where each of which functions as a mutually exclusive button. We can use the following approach in ReactJS to use the React Desktop macOS SegmentedControl Component.

SegmentedControl Props:

box: It is used to indicate whether the item is in a box or not.
height: It is used to set component height.
hidden: It is used to set the component visibility.
margin: It is used to set the outer margin of the component.
marginBottom: It is used to set the outer bottom margin of the component.
marginLeft: It is used to set the outer left margin of the component.
marginRight: It is used to set the outer right margin of the component.
marginTop: It is used to set the outer top margin of the component.
width: It is used to set components width.

SegmentedControlItem Props:

title: It is used to set the title for the item.
onSelect: It is a callback function that is triggered on select of an item.
selected: It is used to indicate whether the item is selected or not.

Creating React Application And Installing Module:

Step 1: Create a React application using the following command:
```
npx create-react-app foldername
```
Step 2: After creating your project folder i.e. foldername, move to it using the following command:
```
cd foldername
```
Step 3: After creating the ReactJS application, Install the required module using the following command:
```
npm install react-desktop
```

Project Structure: It will look like the following.

Project Structure

Example: Now write down the following code in the App.js file. Here, App is our default component where we have written our code.

App.js

import React, { useState } from 'react'
import { SegmentedControl, SegmentedControlItem } from 'react-desktop/macOs'; 
  
export default function App() { 
  
  // Our State object 
  const [currentSelection, setCurrentSelection] = useState(1) 
  
  return ( 
    <div style={{ 
      display: 'block', width: 700, paddingLeft: 30 
    }}> 
      <h4>React-Desktop macOS SegmentedControl Component</h4> 
      <SegmentedControl box> 
        <SegmentedControlItem 
          key={1} 
          title={"TAB 1"} 
          selected={currentSelection === 1} 
          onSelect={() => setCurrentSelection(1)} 
        > 
          Sample Text 1 
        </SegmentedControlItem> 
        <SegmentedControlItem 
          key={2} 
          title={"TAB 2"} 
          selected={currentSelection === 2} 
          onSelect={() => setCurrentSelection(2)} 
        > 
          Sample Text 2 
        </SegmentedControlItem> 
      </SegmentedControl> 
    </div> 
  ); 
}

Step to Run Application: Run the application using the following command from the root directory of the project:

npm start

Output: Now open your browser and go to http://localhost:3000/, you will see the following output:
