How it works

Snippet	Description
cn-help	How to use shadcn/ui snippets
cni-[component]	Adds imports for the component
cnx-[component]	Adds jsx/tsx for the component
cnp-[component]	Adds page based components like 'form'

How to use?

1. Components

For Alert component, type cni-alert to add imports in your jsx/tsx file, and to use the component, use cnx-alert.

Similarly, for any other component, use cni-[component] to add imports and cnx-[component] to use.

// cni-alert
import { Alert, AlertDescription, AlertTitle } from "@/components/ui/alert"

// cnx-alert
;<Alert>
  <AlertTitle>Heads up!</AlertTitle>
  <AlertDescription>
    You can add components and dependencies to your app using the cli.
  </AlertDescription>
</Alert>

2. Page based components

Some compenents are page specific and can be imported using cnp-[component], modular parts to be added later.

// cnp-form
"use client"

import { zodResolver } from "@hookform/resolvers/zod"
import { useForm } from "react-hook-form"
import * as z from "zod"

import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button"
import {
  Form,
  FormControl,
  FormDescription,
  FormField,
  FormItem,
  FormLabel,
  FormMessage,
} from "@/components/ui/form"
import { Input } from "@/components/ui/input"

const formSchema = z.object({
  username: z.string().min(2, {
    message: "Username must be at least 2 characters.",
  }),
})

export default function Page() {
  const form = useForm<z.infer<typeof formSchema>>({
    resolver: zodResolver(formSchema),
    defaultValues: {
      username: "",
    },
  })

  const onSubmit = (values: z.infer<typeof formSchema>) => {
    console.log(values)
  }

  return (
    <Form {...form}>
      <form onSubmit={form.handleSubmit(onSubmit)} className="space-y-5 p-5">
        <FormField
          control={form.control}
          name="username"
          render={({ field }) => (
            <FormItem>
              <FormLabel>Username</FormLabel>
              <FormControl>
                <Input placeholder="shadcn" {...field} />
              </FormControl>
              <FormDescription>
                This is your public display name.
              </FormDescription>
              <FormMessage />
            </FormItem>
          )}
        />
        <Button type="submit">Submit</Button>
      </form>
    </Form>
  )
}

To be added later

Some components require useState, etc to also be used, so they will be added later.

• Calendar
• Combobox
• Data Table
• Date Picker
• Toast
