Next/13/Upsert Use Client Directive
Last update
Jul 24, 2024
Since Next.js 13.4, you can mark the files that contain only client-side code with the use client
directive at the top.
The codemod will look for identifiers and string literals common for files that contain client-side code, such as React hooks or event handlers. On the other hand, it will not upsert any directive should it spot elements indicating server-side code.
The codemod will not remove the existing use client
directive even if it would suggest otherwise due to the code in question.
Example
Before
import { useState } from 'react';export default function Page() {const [x, setX] = useState('');return x;}
After
'use client';import { useState } from 'react';export default function Page() {const [x, setX] = useState('');return x;}
