How to pass state props to another component - reactjs

Question

I want to pass a state variable to another component but i don't get it what i'm doing wrong.
I have a component for radio inputs and I need to pass that taskLabel to Form component.
path is components/inputs/index.js
const TaskLabel = (props) => {
const [taskLabel, setTaskLabel] = useState('');
return (
<div label={props.taskLabel} >
<input
type='radio'
name='label'
value='urgent'
onChange={(e) => setTaskLabel(e.target.value)}
/>
<input
type='radio'
name='label'
value='not-urgent'
onChange={(e) => setTaskLabel(e.target.value)}
/>
</div>
);
};
i want to receive the taskLabel value, to use it in submitHandler function.
components/form/index.js
const Form = ({taskLabel}) => {
return (
<form onSubmit={submitHandler}>
<input
type='text'
placeholder='Text here'
className='form-input'
value={task}
onChange={(e) => {
setTask(e.target.value);
}}
/>
<TaskLabel taskLabel={taskLabel} />
</form>
)
}
This is what i tried, to pass taskLabel props from label={taskLabel}.

Answer 1

You need to move your state, to Form component, like this:
const [labelProp, setLabelProp] = useState("");
Your TaskLabel component should be
<TaskLabel label={{ labelProp, setLabelProp }} />
That means, you send label, as a prop to TaskLabel component.
In TaskLabel component you need to recive the prosp, by passing to component {label}.
Next, for every input use onChange={(e) => label.setLabelProp(e.target.value)}.

Generally speaking, the concept is "data-down, actions-up". So if you want to pass data down to a lower-level component, you just pass a prop. If you want to update a value from a lower-level component to a higher-level component, you could pass a setter function down as a prop and call that.
Note I just call it taskLevelProp for a little more clarity. You should probably use a better name.
TaskLabel (lower level component)
/* It looks like TaskLabelProp gets passed in from something else.
Otherwise, you would use useState to get your setter function */
const TaskLabel = ({taskLabelProp, setTaskLabelProp}) => {
return (
<div label={props.taskLabel} >
<input
type='radio'
name='label'
value='urgent'
onChange={(e) => setTaskLabelProp(e.target.value)}
/>
<input
type='radio'
name='label'
value='not-urgent'
onChange={(e) => setTaskLabelProp(e.target.value)}
/>
</div>
);
};
Form (higher level component)
const Form = () => {
const [taskLabelProp, setTaskLabelProp] = useState('');
return (
<form onSubmit={submitHandler}>
<input
type='text'
placeholder='Text here'
className='form-input'
value={task}
onChange={(e) => {
setTask(e.target.value);
}}
/>
<TaskLabel taskLabel={taskLabelProp, setTaskLabelProp} />
</form>
)
}
Let me know if this answers your question.
EDIT: Made Form use useState. Based off your code, I was assuming you were using useState at the app level.

function App() {
const [task, setTask] = useState("");
const [taskLabelProp, setTaskLabelProp] = useState("");
const handleChange = (e) => {
setTaskLabelProp(e.target.value);
};
const submitHandler = (e) => {
e.preventDefault();
};
return (
<div className="App">
<form onSubmit={submitHandler}>
<input
type="text"
placeholder="Text here"
className="form-input"
value={task}
onChange={(e) => {
setTask(e.target.value);
}}
/>
<TaskLabel
onChange={handleChange}
taskLabelProp={taskLabelProp}
taskLabel="select"
/>
<button type="submit">fs</button>
</form>
</div>
);
}
export default App;
const TaskLabel = ({ taskLabel, onChange, taskLabelProp }) => {
return (
<div label={taskLabel}>
<input
type="radio"
name="label"
value="urgent"
onChange={(e) => onChange(e)}
checked={taskLabelProp === "urgent"}
/>
urgent
<input
type="radio"
name="label"
value="not-urgent"
onChange={(e) => onChange(e)}
checked={taskLabelProp === "not-urgent"}
/>
not-urgent
</div>
);
};
export default TaskLabel;
