Simplified Publishing with React Hooks

We've introduced a new usePublishing hook that dramatically simplifies Facebook content publishing workflows. This hook provides a clean, declarative interface for managing publishing states, error handling, and retry logic.

Key Features

  • State Management: Automatic handling of loading, success, and error states
  • Error Handling: Built-in retry logic and user-friendly error messages
  • Type Safety: Full TypeScript support with proper type definitions
  • Performance: Optimized to prevent unnecessary re-renders and API calls

Usage Example

const { publishPost, isPublishing, error } = usePublishing();

const handlePublish = async () => {
  try {
    await publishPost({
      content: "Hello, world!",
      imageUrl: "https://example.com/image.jpg"
    });
  } catch (error) {
    // Error is automatically handled by the hook
  }
};

Migration from Previous Implementation

If you're currently using our previous publishing implementation, migrating to the new hook is straightforward. Check our migration guide in the documentation for step-by-step instructions.
