Example Implementation

result-list.fn.tsx

import {useEffect, useState, FunctionComponent} from 'react';
import {ResultList as HeadlessResultList} from '@coveo/headless';
import {ResultLink} from './result-link';
import {Quickview} from '../quickview/quickview.fn';
 
interface ResultListProps {
  controller: HeadlessResultList;
}
 
export const ResultList: FunctionComponent<ResultListProps> = (props) => {
  const {controller} = props;
  const [state, setState] = useState(controller.state);
 
  useEffect(() => controller.subscribe(() => setState(controller.state)), []);
 
  if (!state.results.length) {
    return <div>No results</div>;
  }
 
  return (
    <div>
      <ul style={{textAlign: 'left'}}>
        {state.results.map((result) => (
          <li key={result.uniqueId}>
            <article>
              <h3>
                {/* Make sure to log analytics when the result link is clicked. */}
                <ResultLink result={result}>{result.title}</ResultLink>
              </h3>
              <p>{result.excerpt}</p>
              <div>
                <Quickview result={result} />
              </div>
            </article>
