In React, the uuid library does not have a default export. Instead, it provides a named export for generating unique identifiers. To import and use uuid in your React component, you can do the following:
Steps how to fix ” Attempted import error: ‘uuid’ does not contain a default export”
Install the uuid library using a package manager like npm or yarn:
npm install uuid
or
yarn add uuid
Import the specific function you need from the uuid library. The commonly used function is uuidv4, which generates a random UUID (Universally Unique Identifier):
import { uuidv4 } from 'uuid';
Use the imported function within your component:
import React from 'react';
import { uuidv4 } from 'uuid';
const MyComponent = () => {
const uniqueId = uuidv4();
// Rest of your component code...
return (
<div>
<p>Unique ID: {uniqueId}</p>
</div>
);
};
export default MyComponent;
By following these steps, you can import the uuid library and use its named export uuidv4 to generate unique identifiers within your React component.
