Features

Extracting JSX into a new Component

Glean allows easy extraction of JSX into new React components (in the same or other file). Just select the JSX to extract, and Glean will handle all the rest:

• Generate Class or Functional Component, such that the extracted JSX will continue to function.
• It will identify all inputs to the newly created component.
• Replace extracted JSX with newly created component, while providing it with all the props.

Converting Class Component to Functional Component

Glean seamlesly automates convertion of class components to functional component, while take care of all the complexity:

• Converts setState calls to useState
• Converts componentDidMount and componentWillUnmount to useEffect
• Converts class properties to useRef
• Wraps call non-Lifecycle methods with useCallback

WARNING!!! If You are using React version older than 16.8.0, This refactoring will delete all Lifecycle methods and setState calls!

Converting Functional Component to Class Component

Rename State Variable

Rename any state variable and let Glean rename its setter accordingly for You!

Wrap with Hook (useMemo, useCallback or useEffect)

Render Conditionally

Extract to file

Select text and either VSCode's code suggestion (aka "Lightbulb") or Command Pallet ('Extract to File' command) to extract the text.

glean.switchToTarget (Default: false)

Determines whether VSCode should switch to target file after extracting.

glean.experiments (Default: [])

A list of enabled experimental features. Available experimental features:

glean.showConversionWarning (Default: true)
