react-countdown is not reseting or re-rendering second time - reactjs

Question

What I am trying to do is to update the reset the countdown after changing the status.
There are three status that i am fetching from API .. future, live and expired
If API is returning future with a timestamp, this timestamp is the start_time of the auction, but if the status is live then the timestamp is the end_time of the auction.
So in the following code I am calling api in useEffect to fetch initial data pass to the Countdown and it works, but on 1st complete in handleRenderer i am checking its status and updating the auctionStatus while useEffect is checking the updates to recall API for new timestamp .. so far its working and 2nd timestamp showed up but it is stopped ... means not counting down time for 2nd time.
import React, { useEffect } from 'react';
import { atom, useAtom } from 'jotai';
import { startTimeAtom, auctionStatusAtom } from '../../atoms';
import { toLocalDateTime } from '../../utility';
import Countdown from 'react-countdown';
import { getCurrentAuctionStatus } from '../../services/api';
async function getAuctionStatus() {
let response = await getCurrentAuctionStatus(WpaReactUi.auction_id);
return await response.payload();
}
const Counter = () => {
// component states
const [startTime, setStartTime] = useAtom(startTimeAtom);
const [auctionStatus, setAuctionStatus] = useAtom(auctionStatusAtom);
useEffect(() => {
getAuctionStatus().then((response) => {
setAuctionStatus(response.status);
setStartTime(toLocalDateTime(response.end_time, WpaReactUi.time_zone));
});
}, [auctionStatus]);
//
const handleRenderer = ({ completed, formatted }) => {
if (completed) {
console.log("auction status now is:", auctionStatus);
setTimeout(() => {
if (auctionStatus === 'future') {
getAuctionStatus().then((response) => {
setAuctionStatus(response.status);
});
}
}, 2000)
}
return Object.keys(formatted).map((key) => {
return (
<div key={`${key}`} className={`countDown bordered ${key}-box`}>
<span className={`num item ${key}`}>{formatted[key]}</span>
<span>{key}</span>
</div>
);
});
};
console.log('starttime now:', startTime);
return (
startTime && (
<div className="bidAuctionCounterContainer">
<div className="bidAuctionCounterInner">
<Countdown
key={auctionStatus}
autoStart={true}
id="bidAuctioncounter"
date={startTime}
intervalDelay={0}
precision={3}
renderer={handleRenderer}
/>
</div>
</div>
)
);
};
export default Counter;

Answer 1

You use auctionStatus as a dependency for useEffect.
And when response.status is the same, the auctionStatus doesn't change, so your useEffect won't be called again.
For answering your comment on how to resolve the issue..
I am not sure of your logic but I'll explain by this simple example.
export function App() {
// set state to 'live' by default
const [auctionStatus, setAuctionStatus] = React.useState("live")
React.useEffect(() => {
console.log('hello')
changeState()
}, [auctionStatus])
function changeState() {
// This line won't result in calling your useEffect
// setAuctionStatus("live") // 'hello' will be printed one time only.
// You need to use a state value that won't be similar to the previous one.
setAuctionStatus("inactive") // useEffect will be called and 'hello' will be printed twice.
}
}
You can simply use a flag instead that will keep on changing from true to false like this:
const [flag, setFlag] = React.useState(true)
useEffect(() => {
// ..
}, [flag])
// And in handleRenderer
getAuctionStatus().then((response) => {
setFlag(!flag);
});

Have a look at the following useCountdown hook:
https://codepen.io/AdamMorsi/pen/eYMpxOQ
const DEFAULT_TIME_IN_SECONDS = 60;
const useCountdown = ({ initialCounter, callback }) => {
const _initialCounter = initialCounter ?? DEFAULT_TIME_IN_SECONDS,
[resume, setResume] = useState(0),
[counter, setCounter] = useState(_initialCounter),
initial = useRef(_initialCounter),
intervalRef = useRef(null),
[isPause, setIsPause] = useState(false),
isStopBtnDisabled = counter === 0,
isPauseBtnDisabled = isPause || counter === 0,
isResumeBtnDisabled = !isPause;
const stopCounter = useCallback(() => {
clearInterval(intervalRef.current);
setCounter(0);
setIsPause(false);
}, []);
const startCounter = useCallback(
(seconds = initial.current) => {
intervalRef.current = setInterval(() => {
const newCounter = seconds--;
if (newCounter >= 0) {
setCounter(newCounter);
callback && callback(newCounter);
} else {
stopCounter();
}
}, 1000);
},
[stopCounter]
);
const pauseCounter = () => {
setResume(counter);
setIsPause(true);
clearInterval(intervalRef.current);
};
const resumeCounter = () => {
setResume(0);
setIsPause(false);
};
const resetCounter = useCallback(() => {
if (intervalRef.current) {
stopCounter();
}
setCounter(initial.current);
startCounter(initial.current - 1);
}, [startCounter, stopCounter]);
useEffect(() => {
resetCounter();
}, [resetCounter]);
useEffect(() => {
return () => {
stopCounter();
};
}, [stopCounter]);
return [
counter,
resetCounter,
stopCounter,
pauseCounter,
resumeCounter,
isStopBtnDisabled,
isPauseBtnDisabled,
isResumeBtnDisabled,
];
};
