API

ErrorBoundary

A reusable React error boundary component. Wrap this component around other React components to "catch" errors and render a fallback UI.

This package is built on top of React error boundaries, so it has all of the advantages and constraints of that API. This means that it can't catch errors during:

  • Server side rendering
  • Event handlers
  • Asynchronous code (including effects)

â„šī¸ The component provides several ways to render a fallback: fallback, fallbackRender, and FallbackComponent. Refer to the documentation to determine which is best for your application.

â„šī¸ This is a client component. You can only pass props to it that are serializeable or use it in files that have a "use client"; directive.

Required props

None

Optional props

NameDescription
onError

Optional callback to enable e.g. logging error information to a server. @param error Error that was thrown @param info React "component stack" identifying where the error was thrown

onReset

Optional callback to to be notified when an error boundary is "reset" so React can retry the failed render.

resetKeys

When changed, these keys will reset a triggered error boundary. This can be useful when an error condition may be tied to some specific state (that can be uniquely identified by key). See the the documentation for examples of how to use this prop.

fallback

Static content to render in place of an error if one is thrown.

<ErrorBoundary fallback={<div class="text-red">Something went wrong</div>} />
FallbackComponent

React component responsible for returning a fallback UI based on a thrown value.

<ErrorBoundary FallbackComponent={Fallback} />
fallbackRender

Render prop function responsible for returning a fallback UI based on a thrown value.

<ErrorBoundary fallbackRender={({ error, resetErrorBoundary }) => <div>...</div>} />

FAQ

ErrorBoundary cannot be used as a JSX component

This error can be caused by a version mismatch between react and @types/react. To fix this, ensure that both match exactly, e.g.:

If using NPM:

{
  ...
  "overrides": {
    "@types/react": "17.0.60"
  },
  ...
}

If using Yarn:

{
  ...
  "resolutions": {
    "@types/react": "17.0.60"
  },
  ...
}

This blog post shows more examples of how this package can be used, although it was written for the version 3 API.
