## Background

`useMemo` and `useCallback` cache the most recent result. However, this cache can be destroyed by `React` when it wants to:

> You may rely on useMemo as a performance optimization, **not as a semantic guarantee**. In the future, **React may choose to “forget” some previously memoized values** and recalculate them on next render, e.g. to free memory for offscreen components. Write your code so that it still works without useMemo — and then add it to optimize performance. [- React docs](https://reactjs.org/docs/hooks-reference.html#usememo)

`useMemoOne` and `useCallbackOne` are `concurrent mode` safe alternatives to `useMemo` and `useCallback` **that do provide semantic guarantee**. What this means is that you will always get the same reference for a memoized value so long as there is no input change.

Using `useMemoOne` and `useCallbackOne` will consume more memory than `useMemo` and `useCallback` in order to provide a stable cache. `React` can release the cache of `useMemo` and `useCallback`, but `useMemoOne` will not release the cache until it is garbage collected.

## Install

```bash
# npm
npm install use-memo-one --save
# yarn
yarn add use-memo-one
```

## Usage

```js
import { useMemoOne, useCallbackOne } from 'use-memo-one';

function App(props) {
  const { name, age } = props;
  const value = useMemoOne(() => ({ hello: name }), [name]);
  const getAge = useCallbackOne(() => age, [age]);

  // ...
}
```

### Aliased imports

You can use this `import` style drop in replacement for `useMemo` and `useCallback`

This style also plays very well with [`eslint-plugin-react-hooks`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/eslint-plugin-react-hooks).

```js
import { useMemo, useCallback } from 'use-memo-one';
```

⚠️ The aliased exports `useMemo` and `useCallback` will only work if you use _only_ `use-memo-one` and will clash if you also use `useMemo` or `useCallback` from `react`

```js
import { useMemo, useCallback } from 'react';
// ❌ naming clash
import { useMemo, useCallback } from 'use-memo-one';
```

## API

See [`useMemo`](https://reactjs.org/docs/hooks-reference.html#usememo) and [`useCallback`](https://reactjs.org/docs/hooks-reference.html#usecallback)

## Linting

`useMemo` and `useCallback` have fantastic linting rules with auto fixing in the [`eslint-plugin-react-hooks`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/eslint-plugin-react-hooks) package. In order to take advantage of these with `useMemoOne` and `useCallbackOne`, structure your import like this:

```js
import { useMemo, useCallback } from 'use-memo-one';
// Or your can alias it yourself
import {
  useMemoOne as useMemo,
  useCallbackOne as useCallback,
} from 'use-memo-one';

function App() {
  const [isActive] = useState(false);

  const onClick = useCallback(() => {
    console.log('isActive', isActive);

    // the input array will now be correctly checked by eslint-plugin-react-hooks
  }, [isActive]);
}
```

## [`eslint`](https://eslint.org/) rules

Here are some `eslint` rules you are welcome to use

```js
module.exports = {
  rules: {
    // ...other rules

    'no-restricted-imports': [
      'error',
      {
        // If you want to force an application to always use useMemoOne
        paths: [
          {
            name: 'react',
            importNames: ['useMemo', 'useCallback'],
            message:
              '`useMemo` and `useCallback` are subject to cache busting. Please use `useMemoOne`',
          },
          // If you want to force use of the aliased imports from useMemoOne
          {
            name: 'use-memo-one',
            importNames: ['useMemoOne', 'useCallbackOne'],
            message:
              'use-memo-one exports `useMemo` and `useCallback` which work nicer with `eslint-plugin-react-hooks`',
          },
        ],
      },
    ],
  },
};
```
