I expected to get the url with category=business,but the web automatically reset my state to the url that dosent have the category.I dont know the reason behind
let {id}=useParams()
const [newsurl,setNewsurl]=useState(()=>{
const initialstate="https://newsapi.org/v2/top-headlines?country=us&apiKey=c75d8c8ba2f1470bb24817af1ed669ee"
return initialstate;})
//console.log(id);
const [articles, setActicles] = useState([]);
useEffect( ()=>{
if(id === 2)
console.log("condition")
setNewsurl("https://newsapi.org/v2/top-headlines?country=de&category=business&apiKey=c75d8c8ba2f1470bb24817af1ed669ee")},[])
useEffect(() => {
const getArticles = async () => {
const res = await Axios.get(newsurl);
setActicles(res.data.articles);
console.log(res);
};
getArticles();
}, []);
useEffect(() => {
console.log(newsurl)
// Whatever else we want to do after the state ha
s been updated.
}, [newsurl])
//return "https://newsapi.org/v2/top-headlines?country=us&apiKey=c75d8c8ba2f1470bb24817af1ed669ee";}
return (<><Newsnavbar />{articles?.map(({title,description,url,urlToImage,publishedAt,source})=>(
<NewsItem
title={title}
desciption={description}
url={url}
urlToImage={urlToImage}
publishedAt={publishedAt}
source={source.name} />
)) } </>
)
one more things is that when i save the code the page will change to have category but when i refresh it ,it change back to the inital state.Same case when typing the url with no id.May i know how to fix this and the reason behind?
Setting the state in React acts like an async function.
Meaning that the when you set the state and put a console.log right after it, it will likely run before the state has actually finished updating.
You can instead, for example, use a useEffect hook that is dependant on the relevant state in-order to see that the state value actually gets updates as anticipated.
Example:
useEffect(() => {
console.log(newsurl)
// Whatever else we want to do after the state has been updated.
}, [newsurl])
This console.log will run only after the state has finished changing and a render has occurred.
Note: "newsurl" in the example is interchangeable with whatever other state piece you're dealing with.
Check the documentation for more info about this.
setState is an async operation so in the first render both your useEffetcs run when your url is equal to the default value you pass to the useState hook. in the next render your url is changed but the second useEffect is not running anymore because you passed an empty array as it's dependency so it runs just once.
you can rewrite your code like the snippet below to solve the problem.
const [articles, setActicles] = useState([]);
const Id = props.id;
useEffect(() => {
const getArticles = async () => {
const newsurl =
Id === 2
? "https://newsapi.org/v2/top-headlines?country=de&category=business&apiKey=c75d8c8ba2f1470bb24817af1ed669ee"
: "https://newsapi.org/v2/top-headlines?country=us&apiKey=c75d8c8ba2f1470bb24817af1ed669ee";
const res = await Axios.get(newsurl);
setActicles(res.data.articles);
console.log(res);
};
getArticles();
}, []);
For the initial render, I have object date, which is an empty array. I then try to get data from an influxDB, but the get result isn't reflected by React with a re-render. The get function is calling in useEffect (you can see this in screenshots). I use typescript, and to avoid getting an error on the initial load (that data is an empty array of objects and it doesn't have a value property) I use the typescript syntax, but it still doesn't display the correct value. It doesn't display anything at all.
What could be the problem? In the last photo, we can see another way to display data without a question mark from typescript, but it doesn't work correctly either, even if the length of the array is greater than 0, it still doesn't display data[0].value.
Initial data:
Data after DB get:
Get the first element in array:
Browser result (before ':' we should see data[0].value):
Alternate way (when data isn't empty we should see the value of the first object in array):
I also show we code
import React from 'react';
import './App.css';
import { FluxTableMetaData } from '#influxdata/influxdb-client';
const { InfluxDB } = require('#influxdata/influxdb-client');
export const App = () => {
debugger
const authData = {
token: 'Emyw1rqUDthYRLpmmBc6O1_yt9rGTT57O50zoKiXUoScAjL6G-MgUN6G_U9THilr86BfIPHMYt6_KSDNHhc9Jg==',
org: 'testOrg',
bucket: 'test-bucket',
};
const client = new InfluxDB({
url: 'http://localhost:8086',
token: authData.token,
});
const queryApi = client.getQueryApi(authData.org);
const query = `from(bucket: "${authData.bucket}") |> range(start: -1d)`;
const data: any[] = [];
React.useEffect(() => {
queryApi.queryRows(query, {
next(row: string[], tableMeta: FluxTableMetaData) {
debugger;
const o = tableMeta.toObject(row);
const item = {
time: o._time,
measurement: o._measurement,
field: o._field,
value: o._value,
};
return data.push(item);
},
error(error: Error) {
return error;
},
complete() {
console.log(data)
return data;
},
})
},[]);
debugger;
return (
<div>
<div>{data.length !== data[0].value}:</div>
<div>hello</div>
</div>
);
};
another way:
<div>
<div>{data[0]?.value}:</div>
<div>hello</div>
</div>
The main issue in your code is, You have defined data as a const variable, and not as a state. Thus, in useEffect, even if your data gets changed, it will not reflect on data[0].value as it is a const variable and react doesn't render updated values of variables. It updates/renders only if it's a state.
In short, Convert your const data to be a stateand use setState like below for your code to work!
const [data, setData] = React.useState([]);
...
setData([...data , item]);
I suggest you use the React States for that in the following way
var [nameOfVariableWhichWillChange, changeFunction] = React.useState("");
now whenever whichever function wants to change the value of that function just use changeFunction(newValueOfVariable)
the plus point of using React state is wherever you might have used that variable on change of That variable each instance will change on its own...
Do let me know does that solve your problem, or you need something else
React doesn't re-render the webpage even if the data has changed. You need to store your data inside a React.useState and call setState to trigger a re-render.
const [data, setData] = useState([])
React.useEffect(() => {
...
next(row: string[], tableMeta: FluxTableMetaData) {
...
setData([...data, item])
},
...

I am new to React Native, so trying to learn.
I am trying to set the default value using hooks in react native as below
const [recent, setRecent] = useState('No data')
I am using the async storage to get the value of recent. If the value is not found in async storage then I need to set the default value as No Data
How can I achieve this behaviour?
You'll need to use the useEffect hook. It will run when the component is first mounted. In it you need to run an async function to check AsyncStorage for the value. That has to be done in a specific way, which I've shown in the example below (create async function, then immediately run it). Then update the value based on what it finds.
const [ recent,setRecent ] = React.useState()
React.useEffect(() => {
const checkAsync = async () => {
const value = await AsyncStorage.getItem('#storage_Key')
if (value !== undefined && value !== null){
setRecent(value)
} else {
setRecent('No data')
}
}
checkAsync()
}, [])
I have custom useDictation hook that hooks into a Speech-to-Text service. I want to append speech results every time a result is received.
The hook accepts a callback function that is fired when a final result is received from the service. It is called in a main component and fires every time a result is received. I want to show the sum of the results as they arrive.
I cannot access any useState methods or any other ways of updating the component's state. Everything stays static or does not update. I'm not sure what I am doing wrong here?
function Component(){
const [speechResults, setSpeechResults] = useState("")
const callback = (results) => {
setSpeechResults(prevState => prevState + results)
}
const [results] = useDictation(callback)
return(
//Shows the sum of all results returned
<Text>{speechResult}</Text>
)
}
For some reason, it will never add the sum of the results and will never encapsulate the state or current state. Is there a reason for this? Thank you!
Something like this (not tested):
import React, {useState} from 'react';
const useDictation = async dataToProcess => await getDataFromRemoteApiService(dataToProcess);
const MyComponent = ({dataToProcess}) => {
const [speechResults, setSpeechResults] = useState("");
setSpeechResults(speechResults + useDictation(dataToProcess));
return <Text>{speechResult}</Text>
}
I've been playing around with the new hook system in React 16.7-alpha and get stuck in an infinite loop in useEffect when the state I'm handling is an object or array.
First, I use useState and initiate it with an empty object like this:
const [obj, setObj] = useState({});
Then, in useEffect, I use setObj to set it to an empty object again. As a second argument I'm passing [obj], hoping that it wont update if the content of the object hasn't changed. But it keeps updating. I guess because no matter the content, these are always different objects making React thinking it keep changing?
useEffect(() => {
setIngredients({});
}, [ingredients]);
The same is true with arrays, but as a primitive it wont get stuck in a loop, as expected.
Using these new hooks, how should I handle objects and array when checking weather the content has changed or not?
Passing an empty array as the second argument to useEffect makes it only run on mount and unmount, thus stopping any infinite loops.
useEffect(() => {
setIngredients({});
}, []);
This was clarified to me in the blog post on React hooks at https://www.robinwieruch.de/react-hooks/
Had the same problem. I don't know why they not mention this in docs. Just want to add a little to Tobias Haugen answer.
To run in every component/parent rerender you need to use:
useEffect(() => {
// don't know where it can be used :/
})
To run anything only one time after component mount(will be rendered once) you need to use:
useEffect(() => {
// do anything only one time if you pass empty array []
// keep in mind, that component will be rendered one time (with default values) before we get here
}, [] )
To run anything one time on component mount and on data/data2 change:
const [data, setData] = useState(false)
const [data2, setData2] = useState('default value for first render')
useEffect(() => {
// if you pass some variable, than component will rerender after component mount one time and second time if this(in my case data or data2) is changed
// if your data is object and you want to trigger this when property of object changed, clone object like this let clone = JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(data)), change it clone.prop = 2 and setData(clone).
// if you do like this 'data.prop=2' without cloning useEffect will not be triggered, because link to data object in momory doesn't changed, even if object changed (as i understand this)
}, [data, data2] )
How i use it most of the time:
export default function Book({id}) {
const [book, bookSet] = useState(false)
const loadBookFromServer = useCallback(async () => {
let response = await fetch('api/book/' + id)
response = await response.json()
bookSet(response)
}, [id]) // every time id changed, new book will be loaded
useEffect(() => {
loadBookFromServer()
}, [loadBookFromServer]) // useEffect will run once and when id changes
if (!book) return false //first render, when useEffect did't triggered yet we will return false
return <div>{JSON.stringify(book)}</div>
}
I ran into the same problem too once and I fixed it by making sure I pass primitive values in the second argument [].
If you pass an object, React will store only the reference to the object and run the effect when the reference changes, which is usually every singe time (I don't now how though).
The solution is to pass the values in the object. You can try,
const obj = { keyA: 'a', keyB: 'b' }
useEffect(() => {
// do something
}, [Object.values(obj)]);
or
const obj = { keyA: 'a', keyB: 'b' }
useEffect(() => {
// do something
}, [obj.keyA, obj.keyB]);
If you are building a custom hook, you can sometimes cause an infinite loop with default as follows
function useMyBadHook(values = {}) {
useEffect(()=> {
/* This runs every render, if values is undefined */
},
[values]
)
}
The fix is to use the same object instead of creating a new one on every function call:
const defaultValues = {};
function useMyBadHook(values = defaultValues) {
useEffect(()=> {
/* This runs on first call and when values change */
},
[values]
)
}
If you are encountering this in your component code the loop may get fixed if you use defaultProps instead of ES6 default values
function MyComponent({values}) {
useEffect(()=> {
/* do stuff*/
},[values]
)
return null; /* stuff */
}
MyComponent.defaultProps = {
values = {}
}
Your infinite loop is due to circularity
useEffect(() => {
setIngredients({});
}, [ingredients]);
setIngredients({}); will change the value of ingredients(will return a new reference each time), which will run setIngredients({}). To solve this you can use either approach:
Pass a different second argument to useEffect
const timeToChangeIngrediants = .....
useEffect(() => {
setIngredients({});
}, [timeToChangeIngrediants ]);
setIngrediants will run when timeToChangeIngrediants has changed.
I'm not sure what use case justifies change ingrediants once it has been changed. But if it is the case, you pass Object.values(ingrediants) as a second argument to useEffect.
useEffect(() => {
setIngredients({});
}, Object.values(ingrediants));
As said in the documentation (https://reactjs.org/docs/hooks-effect.html), the useEffect hook is meant to be used when you want some code to be executed after every render. From the docs:
Does useEffect run after every render? Yes!
If you want to customize this, you can follow the instructions that appear later in the same page (https://reactjs.org/docs/hooks-effect.html#tip-optimizing-performance-by-skipping-effects). Basically, the useEffect method accepts a second argument, that React will examine to determine if the effect has to be triggered again or not.
useEffect(() => {
document.title = `You clicked ${count} times`;
}, [count]); // Only re-run the effect if count changes
You can pass any object as the second argument. If this object remains unchanged, your effect will only be triggered after the first mount. If the object changes, the effect will be triggered again.
I'm not sure if this will work for you but you could try adding .length like this:
useEffect(() => {
// fetch from server and set as obj
}, [obj.length]);
In my case (I was fetching an array!) it fetched data on mount, then again only on change and it didn't go into a loop.
If you include empty array at the end of useEffect:
useEffect(()=>{
setText(text);
},[])
It would run once.
If you include also parameter on array:
useEffect(()=>{
setText(text);
},[text])
It would run whenever text parameter change.
I often run into an infinite re-render when having a complex object as state and updating it from useRef:
const [ingredients, setIngredients] = useState({});
useEffect(() => {
setIngredients({
...ingredients,
newIngedient: { ... }
});
}, [ingredients]);
In this case eslint(react-hooks/exhaustive-deps) forces me (correctly) to add ingredients to the dependency array. However, this results in an infinite re-render. Unlike what some say in this thread, this is correct, and you can't get away with putting ingredients.someKey or ingredients.length into the dependency array.
The solution is that setters provide the old value that you can refer to. You should use this, rather than referring to ingredients directly:
const [ingredients, setIngredients] = useState({});
useEffect(() => {
setIngredients(oldIngedients => {
return {
...oldIngedients,
newIngedient: { ... }
}
});
}, []);
If you use this optimization, make sure the array includes all values from the component scope (such as props and state) that change over time and that are used by the effect.
I believe they are trying to express the possibility that one could be using stale data, and to be aware of this. It doesn't matter the type of values we send in the array for the second argument as long as we know that if any of those values change it will execute the effect. If we are using ingredients as part of the computation within the effect, we should include it in the array.
const [ingredients, setIngredients] = useState({});
// This will be an infinite loop, because by shallow comparison ingredients !== {}
useEffect(() => {
setIngredients({});
}, [ingredients]);
// If we need to update ingredients then we need to manually confirm
// that it is actually different by deep comparison.
useEffect(() => {
if (is(<similar_object>, ingredients) {
return;
}
setIngredients(<similar_object>);
}, [ingredients]);
The main problem is that useEffect compares the incoming value with the current value shallowly. This means that these two values compared using '===' comparison which only checks for object references and although array and object values are the same it treats them to be two different objects. I recommend you to check out my article about useEffect as a lifecycle methods.
The best way is to compare previous value with current value by using usePrevious() and _.isEqual() from Lodash.
Import isEqual and useRef. Compare your previous value with current value inside the useEffect(). If they are same do nothing else update. usePrevious(value) is a custom hook which create a ref with useRef().
Below is snippet of my code. I was facing problem of infinite loop with updating data using firebase hook
import React, { useState, useEffect, useRef } from 'react'
import 'firebase/database'
import { Redirect } from 'react-router-dom'
import { isEqual } from 'lodash'
import {
useUserStatistics
} from '../../hooks/firebase-hooks'
export function TMDPage({ match, history, location }) {
const usePrevious = value => {
const ref = useRef()
useEffect(() => {
ref.current = value
})
return ref.current
}
const userId = match.params ? match.params.id : ''
const teamId = location.state ? location.state.teamId : ''
const [userStatistics] = useUserStatistics(userId, teamId)
const previousUserStatistics = usePrevious(userStatistics)
useEffect(() => {
if (
!isEqual(userStatistics, previousUserStatistics)
) {
doSomething()
}
})
In case you DO need to compare the object and when it is updated here is a deepCompare hook for comparison. The accepted answer surely does not address that. Having an [] array is suitable if you need the effect to run only once when mounted.
Also, other voted answers only address a check for primitive types by doing obj.value or something similar to first get to the level where it is not nested. This may not be the best case for deeply nested objects.
So here is one that will work in all cases.
import { DependencyList } from "react";
const useDeepCompare = (
value: DependencyList | undefined
): DependencyList | undefined => {
const ref = useRef<DependencyList | undefined>();
if (!isEqual(ref.current, value)) {
ref.current = value;
}
return ref.current;
};
You can use the same in useEffect hook
React.useEffect(() => {
setState(state);
}, useDeepCompare([state]));
You could also destructure the object in the dependency array, meaning the state would only update when certain parts of the object updated.
For the sake of this example, let's say the ingredients contained carrots, we could pass that to the dependency, and only if carrots changed, would the state update.
You could then take this further and only update the number of carrots at certain points, thus controlling when the state would update and avoiding an infinite loop.
useEffect(() => {
setIngredients({});
}, [ingredients.carrots]);
An example of when something like this could be used is when a user logs into a website. When they log in, we could destructure the user object to extract their cookie and permission role, and update the state of the app accordingly.
my Case was special on encountering an infinite loop, the senario was like this:
I had an Object, lets say objX that comes from props and i was destructuring it in props like:
const { something: { somePropery } } = ObjX
and i used the somePropery as a dependency to my useEffect like:
useEffect(() => {
// ...
}, [somePropery])
and it caused me an infinite loop, i tried to handle this by passing the whole something as a dependency and it worked properly.
Another worked solution that I used for arrays state is:
useEffect(() => {
setIngredients(ingredients.length ? ingredients : null);
}, [ingredients]);
