🎮 Usage

Let's walk through setting up a simple RPG-style game with achievements using React-Achievements.

🛠 Set up the AchievementProvider

First, wrap your app or a part of your app with the AchievementProvider:

import React from 'react';
import { AchievementProvider } from 'react-achievements';
import achievementConfig from './achievementConfig';
import Game from './Game';

const initialState = {
  level: 1,
  experience: 0,
  monstersDefeated: 0,
  questsCompleted: 0
};

function App() {
  return (
    <AchievementProvider 
      config={achievementConfig} 
      initialState={initialState}
      badgesButtonPosition="top-right"
    >
      <Game />
    </AchievementProvider>
  );
}

export default App;

📝 Create an achievement configuration

Create a file (e.g., achievementConfig.js) to define your achievements:

import levelUpIcon from './icons/level-up.png';
import monsterSlayerIcon from './icons/monster-slayer.png';
import questMasterIcon from './icons/quest-master.png';

const achievementConfig = {
  level: [
    {
      check: (value) => value >= 1,
      data: {
        id: 'level_1',
        title: 'Novice Adventurer',
        description: 'Reached level 1',
        icon: levelUpIcon
      }
    },
    {
      check: (value) => value >= 5,
      data: {
        id: 'level_5',
        title: 'Seasoned Warrior',
        description: 'Reached level 5',
        icon: levelUpIcon
      }
    }
  ],
  monstersDefeated: [
    {
      check: (value) => value >= 10,
      data: {
        id: 'monster_slayer',
        title: 'Monster Slayer',
        description: 'Defeated 10 monsters',
        icon: monsterSlayerIcon
      }
    }
  ],
  questsCompleted: [
    {
      check: (value) => value >= 1,
      data: {
        id: 'quest_master',
        title: 'Quest Master',
        description: 'Completed 1 quest',
        icon: questMasterIcon
      }
    }
  ]
};

export default achievementConfig;

🎣 Use the useAchievement hook

In your game components, use the useAchievement hook to update metrics and trigger achievement checks:

import React, { useState } from 'react';
import { useAchievement } from 'react-achievements';

function Game() {
  const { setMetrics, metrics } = useAchievement();
  const [currentQuest, setCurrentQuest] = useState(null);

  const defeatMonster = () => {
    setMetrics(prevMetrics => {
      const newExperience = prevMetrics.experience + 10;
      const newLevel = Math.floor(newExperience / 100) + 1;
      return {
        ...prevMetrics,
        monstersDefeated: prevMetrics.monstersDefeated + 1,
        experience: newExperience,
        level: newLevel > prevMetrics.level ? newLevel : prevMetrics.level
      };
    });
  };

  const completeQuest = () => {
    setMetrics(prevMetrics => {
      const newExperience = prevMetrics.experience + 50;
      const newLevel = Math.floor(newExperience / 100) + 1;
      return {
        ...prevMetrics,
        questsCompleted: prevMetrics.questsCompleted + 1,
        experience: newExperience,
        level: newLevel > prevMetrics.level ? newLevel : prevMetrics.level
      };
    });
    setCurrentQuest(null);
  };

  const startQuest = () => {
    setCurrentQuest("Defeat the Dragon");
  };

  return (
    <div>
      <h1>My RPG Game</h1>
      <p>Level: {metrics.level}</p>
      <p>Experience: {metrics.experience}</p>
      <p>Monsters Defeated: {metrics.monstersDefeated}</p>
      <p>Quests Completed: {metrics.questsCompleted}</p>
      
      <div>
        <h2>Battle Arena</h2>
        <button onClick={defeatMonster}>Fight a Monster</button>
      </div>

      <div>
        <h2>Quest Board</h2>
        {currentQuest ? (
          <>
            <p>Current Quest: {currentQuest}</p>
            <button onClick={completeQuest}>Complete Quest</button>
          </>
        ) : (
          <button onClick={startQuest}>Start a New Quest</button>
        )}
      </div>
    </div>
  );
}

export default Game;
