How to Build a Custom React Search Bar Component using a Dynamic Regex

As of lately, I’ve been in the process of building a progressive web app for my Mom’s Christmas present this year using React Hooks; It’s a digitalized version of her cookbooks and recipes all in one place.

With how many recipes she has, it got me thinking, if she wanted to find a single recipe, simply alphabetizing them might not be as intuitive as I would like.

This inspired me to create a search bar that would filter the recipe search results as the user was typing, instead of upon hitting a button.

Below, take a look at the end goal we are trying to achieve. Hopefully it is obvious this is just a template, and has fake recipes — my mom does not have a recipe called “Weird Stuff”!.

Notice how it only shows dishes with the current value (typed characters) somewhere in the name of the dish

In this post, we’ll discuss how I was able to make the search bar, and implement it into the app.

There are a few parts to this, and I’ll be going into each of these topics:

1. Create the SearchBar component
2. Include the necessary state using Hooks in our App component (pass as props to the SearchBar component)
3. Make a dynamic regular expression that uses the state of the search bar input to match against each recipe.
4. With a React Hook (useEffect), call a helper function to filter the results on every change of input state using the regex.

If you would like to take a look at the project for yourself, I have linked to the Github repository here. Also, my way is only one way to make something like this, I’m positive there are numerous other possibilities, and plenty of those are probably better ways too. Now, let’s dive into the first step!

How native is React Native? | React Native vs Native App Development

If you are undertaking a mobile app development for your start-up or enterprise, you are likely wondering whether to use React Native. As a popular development framework, React Native helps you to develop near-native mobile apps. However, you are probably also wondering how close you can get to a native app by using React Native. How native is React Native?

In the article, we discuss the similarities between native mobile development and development using React Native. We also touch upon where they differ and how to bridge the gaps. Read on.

A brief introduction to React Native

Let’s briefly set the context first. We will briefly touch upon what React Native is and how it differs from earlier hybrid frameworks.

React Native is a popular JavaScript framework that Facebook has created. You can use this open-source framework to code natively rendering Android and iOS mobile apps. You can use it to develop web apps too.

Facebook has developed React Native based on React, its JavaScript library. The first release of React Native came in March 2015. At the time of writing this article, the latest stable release of React Native is 0.62.0, and it was released in March 2020.

Although relatively new, React Native has acquired a high degree of popularity. The “Stack Overflow Developer Survey 2019” report identifies it as the 8th most loved framework. Facebook, Walmart, and Bloomberg are some of the top companies that use React Native.

The popularity of React Native comes from its advantages. Some of its advantages are as follows:

• Performance: It delivers optimal performance.
• Cross-platform development: You can develop both Android and iOS apps with it. The reuse of code expedites development and reduces costs.
• UI design: React Native enables you to design simple and responsive UI for your mobile app.
• 3rd party plugins: This framework supports 3rd party plugins.
• Developer community: A vibrant community of developers support React Native.

Why React Native is fundamentally different from earlier hybrid frameworks

Are you wondering whether React Native is just another of those hybrid frameworks like Ionic or Cordova? It’s not! React Native is fundamentally different from these earlier hybrid frameworks.

React Native is very close to native. Consider the following aspects as described on the React Native website:

• Access to many native platforms features: The primitives of React Native render to native platform UI. This means that your React Native app will use many native platform APIs as native apps would do.
• Near-native user experience: React Native provides several native components, and these are platform agnostic.
• The ease of accessing native APIs: React Native uses a declarative UI paradigm. This enables React Native to interact easily with native platform APIs since React Native wraps existing native code.

Due to these factors, React Native offers many more advantages compared to those earlier hybrid frameworks. We now review them.

Find Nearby Dynamics CRM data on Map | Radius Search | Maplytics

Proximity or Radius Search

Proximity or Radius Search improves an organization’s locational awareness of nearby CRM records. Businesses across verticals use Radius Search to gain enhanced insights about their nearby customers, prospects, and competitors with powerful map visualizations within Dynamics 365 CRM.

Radius search allows filtering records within a given Proximity/Radius around current location. Users can locate nearby customers on a map based on time/travel and view the shortest travel distance along with line of sight distance using this feature. Also, users can perform concentric proximity searches from the current location for relative analysis of Dynamics CRM data.
