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.
