import SendbirdProvider from "@sendbird/uikit-react/SendbirdProvider";
import withSendbird from "@sendbird/uikit-react/withSendbird";
import sendbirdSelectors from "@sendbird/uikit-react/sendbirdSelectors";

const MyButton = (props) => {
    <button onClick={() => props.disconnect().then((reject, response) => { ... }); }>
        Disconnect
    </button>
}

const ButtonWithSendbird = withSendbird(MyButton, (state) => ({
    disconnect: sendbirdSelectors.getDisconnect(state),
}));

const App = () => {
    <SendbirdProvider appId={appId} userId={userId}>
        <div>
            <ButtonWithSendbird />
        </div>
    </SendbirdProvider>
