This Gist provides a utility function that simplifies creating a React Context and Provider based on a custom hook. Unlike typical approaches, this factory allows you to optionally pass props to your custom hook inside the Provider component, offering more flexibility for dynamic context values.
In many React applications, you create a custom hook for certain stateful logic and then wrap it inside a Context Provider to make that state accessible throughout your component tree. However, it’s not always straightforward if your hook depends on certain parameters (e.g., a userId
), because a regular factory might not allow for passing dynamic props to the hook.
