dioxus/examples/popup.rs

//! This example shows how to create a popup window and send data back to the parent window.
//! Currently Dioxus doesn't support nested renderers, hence the need to create popups as separate windows.

use dioxus::prelude::*;

fn main() {
    launch_desktop(app);
}

fn app() -> Element {
    let mut emails_sent = use_signal(|| Vec::new() as Vec<String>);

    // Wait for responses to the compose channel, and then push them to the emails_sent signal.
    let handle = use_coroutine(move |mut rx: UnboundedReceiver<String>| async move {
        use futures_util::StreamExt;
        while let Some(message) = rx.next().await {
            emails_sent.write().push(message);
        }
    });

    let open_compose_window = move |_evt: MouseEvent| {

        dioxus::desktop::window().new_window(
            VirtualDom::new_with_props(popup, Rc::new(move |s| tx.unbounded_send(s).unwrap())),
            Default::default(),
