I'm using a custom hook to set, edit, and remove cookies on my Gatsby site:
use-cookie.ts
import { useState } from 'react';
const getItem = (key: string) => {
if (typeof document !== undefined) {
document.cookie.split('; ').reduce((total, currentCookie) => {
const item = currentCookie.split('=');
const storedKey = item[0];
const storedValue = item[1];
return key === storedKey ? decodeURIComponent(storedValue) : total;
}, '');
}
};
const setItem = (key: string, value: string | boolean, numberOfDays: number) => {
const now = new Date();
now.setTime(now.getTime() + numberOfDays * 60 * 60 * 24 * 1000);
if (typeof document !== undefined) {
document.cookie = `${key}=${value}; expires=${now.toUTCString()}; path=/`;
}
};
export const useCookie = (key: string, defaultValue: string | boolean | any) => {
const getCookie = () => (getItem(key), defaultValue);
const [cookie, setCookie] = useState(getCookie());
const updateCookie = (value: string, numberOfDays: number) => {
setCookie(value);
setItem(key, value, numberOfDays);
};
return [cookie, updateCookie];
};
I use it in a component like so:
const [initialCookieValue, updateCookieValue] = useCookie('cookie', false);
However, in spite of checking all of the references to document with if (typeof document !== undefined) my site is still breaking on build with WebpackError: ReferenceError: document is not defined. I have no clue what I'm doing wrong, or how to go about fixing it, but I know that the error goes away if I remove the hook.
Any ideas?
