Implement react-autosuggest alternative #2170

Open LMulvey opened 2 years ago

LMulvey commented 2 years ago

Description

react-autosuggest is no longer maintained and has deprecated code that conflicts with our testing utilities, React Testing Library (@testing-library/react).

react-autosuggest still checks for event.keyCode, which is long since deprecated. testing-library/user-event stopped supporting as of v14 and now overwrites keyCode to 0 (only to support React's SyntheticEvents which expect a value for keyCode).

There are many alternatives out there but I would personally suggest downshift as it is well-maintained, well-supported, and quite scalable. The learning curve to get everything up-and-running can take a bit, but once you have your components established, it "just works". Plus, it has the benefit of being created and maintained by Kent C. Dodds, the creator/maintainer of React Testing Library.

Reproduction Steps

See #2166 discussion for more details

Hi, sir @LMulvey can you please be more specific with this issue like what we have to do, and in what fields or components we have to replace the react-autosuggest with downshift? And I would love to work on this issue.

Thanks.

Hey @MuhammadAakash, I haven't looked at https://github.com/downshift-js/downshift too deeply, but at first glance it looks like a good, maintained alternative to switch to. Feel free to take this on and investigate further!
