Renders an `<input>` element with internal state, that uses a callback function to pass its value to the parent component.
- Use object destructuring to set defaults for certain attributes of the `<input>` element.
- Use the `React.setState()` hook to create the `value` state variable and give it a value of equal to the `defaultValue` prop.
- Use the `React.useEffect()` hook with a second parameter set to the `value` state variable to call the `callback` function every time `value` is updated.
- Render an `<input>` element with the appropriate attributes and use the the `onChange` event to upda the `value` state variable.
```jsx
function ControlledInput({
callback,
type = 'text',
disabled = false,
readOnly = false,
defaultValue,
placeholder = ''
}) {
const [value, setValue] = React.useState(defaultValue);
React.useEffect(() => {
callback(value);
}, [value]);
return (
<input
defaultValue={defaultValue}
type={type}
disabled={disabled}
readOnly={readOnly}
placeholder={placeholder}
onChange={({ target: { value } }) => setValue(value)}
/>
);
}
```
```jsx
ReactDOM.render(
<ControlledInput
type="text"
placeholder="Insert some text here..."
callback={val => console.log(val)}
/>,
document.getElementById('root')
);
```
