getStaticProps showing wrong/previous data in Reactjs

I am working on Rectjs,I am using nextjs, I created "[slug.js]" for dynamic routes,But its showing previous data instead of current data(fetching from database via axios),I checked in console.log,and in console showing old data not current,where i am wrong ?Here is my current code
const Post = function ({post}) {
useEffect(() => {
// showing old record/title instead of current
console.log(`Found Post title : ${post.title}`);
}, []);
};
export const getStaticProps = async ({ params }) => {
const { data } = await axios.get(
`https://diggdevelopment.com/blackstallion_new/api/getblogbyuserid/${params.slug}`
);
const post = data;
console.log('dat is' + post);
return {
props: {
post,
},
};
};
export const getStaticPaths = async () => {
const { data } = await axios.get(
'http://diggdevelopment.com/blackstallion_new/api/blogscopy'
);
const posts = data.slice(0, 10);
const paths = posts.map((post) => ({ params: { slug: post.id.toString() } }));
return {
paths,
fallback: true,
};
};

Why can't I access data after fetching?

I'm trying to keep session stayed logged in after refreshing the browser. The user data that is being fetched is not rendering after being fetched. The console is saying "Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'user'). This is my code for the login/sign up page.
The data I'm trying to access is in the picture below:
(Auth.js)
const Auth = () => {
const navigate = useNavigate();
const dispatch = useDispatch();
const [isSignup, setIsSignup] = useState(false);
const [inputs, setInputs] = useState({
name: "",
username: "",
email: "",
password: ""
})
const handleChange = (e) => {
setInputs(prevState => {
return {
...prevState,
[e.target.name]: e.target.value
}
})
}
const sendRequest = async (type = '') => {
const res = await axios.post(`/user/${type}`, {
name: inputs.name,
email: inputs.email,
username: inputs.username,
password: inputs.password,
}).catch(error => console.log(error))
const data = await res.data;
console.log(data)
return data;
}
const handleSubmit = (e) => {
e.preventDefault()
console.log(inputs)
if (isSignup) {
sendRequest("signup")
.then((data) => {
dispatch(authActions.login());
localStorage.setItem('userId', data.user._id);
navigate("/posts");
});
} else {
sendRequest("login")
.then((data) => {
dispatch(authActions.login());
localStorage.setItem('userId', data.user._id);
navigate("/posts");
});
}
}
Redux store file
const authSlice = createSlice({
name: "auth",
initialState: { isLoggedIn: false },
reducers: {
login(state) {
state.isLoggedIn = true
},
logout(state) {
state.isLoggedIn = false
}
}
})
export const authActions = authSlice.actions
export const store = configureStore({
reducer: authSlice.reducer
})

Chaining promises using .then() passes the resolved value from one to the next. With this code...
sendRequest("...")
.then(() => dispatch(authActions.login()))
.then(() => navigate("/posts"))
.then(data => localStorage.setItem('token', data.user))
You're passing the returned / resolved value from navigate("/posts") to the next .then() callback. The navigate() function returns void therefore data will be undefined.
Also, your redux action doesn't return the user so you can't chain from that either.
To access the user data, you need to return it from sendRequest()...
const sendRequest = async (type = "") => {
try {
const { data } = await axios.post(`/user/${type}`, { ...inputs });
console.log("sendRequest", type, data);
return data;
} catch (err) {
console.error("sendRequest", type, err.toJSON());
throw new Error(`sendRequest(${type}) failed`);
}
};
After that, all you really need is this...
sendRequest("...")
.then((data) => {
dispatch(authActions.login());
localStorage.setItem('userId', data.user._id);
navigate("/posts");
});
Since you're using redux, I would highly recommend moving the localStorage part out of your component and into your store as a side-effect.

Call custom React async hook within a component and se it's state again

I have a custom react hook fetching number of comments from an API that looks like this:
export async function useFetchNumberOfComments(articleId) {
const [numberOfComments, setNumbeOfComments] = useState(0);
useEffect(() => {
(async () => {
try {
const response = await axios.get(`https://example.com/${articleId}`, {
headers: {
"Content-Type": "application/json",
"X-API-KEY": "X",
Authorization: localStorage.getItem("access_token"),
},
});
const data = await response.data;
setNumbeOfComments(data);
} catch (err) {
console.log(err);
}
})();
}, []);
return numberOfComments;
}
And I want to use it in a Article component that looks like this:
import { useFetchNumberOfComments } from "../utils";
const SingleArticle = () => {
let { id } = useParams();
// Important state
const [numOfComments, setNumOfComments] = useState(0);
// Not important states
const [title, setTitle] = useState("");
const [author, setAuthor] = useState("");
const [content, setContent] = useState("");
const [comments, setComments] = useState([]);
const [commentAuthor, setCommentAuthor] = useState("");
const [commentContent, setCommentContent] = useState("");
const [imageId, setImageId] = useState("");
const [imageUrl, setImageUrl] = useState("");
const [createdAt, setCreatedAt] = useState();
const postComment = async (e) => {
e.preventDefault();
const dataToSend = {
articleId: id,
author: commentAuthor,
content: commentContent,
};
try {
await axios.post(`https://example.com/comments`, dataToSend, {
headers: {
"Content-Type": "application/json",
"X-API-KEY": "X",
Authorization: localStorage.getItem("access_token"),
},
});
// Here, fetch the number of comments from my custom hook and update numOf Comments in this component
setCommentAuthor("");
setCommentContent("");
} catch (err) {
console.log(err);
}
};
return (
<>
<form onSubmit={postComment}>
// Here are some inputs, labels and a submit button
</form>
<h4 className={styles.h1}>Comments({numOfComments})</h4>
</>
);
};
export default SingleArticle;
Now, the problem is that I have no idea how to do the mentioned activity within the Article component: Once the form data(for comment) are sent, trigger the useFetchNumberOfComments custom hook and set the numOfComments state inside article component to the newly fetched data.

I think you'd be better served refactoring the useFetchNumberOfComments hook to return a fetch function and some fetch request meta data, i.e. loading and response and error states.
Example:
export function useFetchNumberOfComments() {
const [numberOfComments, setNumbeOfComments] = useState(0);
const [loading, setLoading] = useState(false);
const [error, setError] = useState(null);
const fetchArticleCommentCount = useCallback(async (articleId) => {
setLoading(true);
try {
const response = await axios.get(`https://example.com/${articleId}`, {
headers: {
"Content-Type": "application/json",
"X-API-KEY": "X",
Authorization: JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem("access_token")),
},
});
const data = await response.data;
setNumbeOfComments(data);
setError(null);
return data;
} catch (err) {
console.log(err);
setError(err);
} finally {
setLoading(false);
}
}, []);
return {
fetchArticleCommentCount,
numberOfComments,
loading,
error
};
};
...
import { useFetchNumberOfComments } from "../utils";
const SingleArticle = () => {
const { id } = useParams();
const {
fetchArticleCommentCount,
numberOfComments,
} = useFetchNumberOfComments();
// Important state
const [numOfComments, setNumOfComments] = useState(0);
// Not important states
...
const postComment = async (e) => {
e.preventDefault();
const dataToSend = {
articleId: id,
author: commentAuthor,
content: commentContent,
};
try {
await axios.post(`https://example.com/comments`, dataToSend, {
headers: {
"Content-Type": "application/json",
"X-API-KEY": "X",
Authorization: localStorage.getItem("access_token"),
},
});
// await returned comment count and update local state
const commentCount = await fetchArticleCommentCount(id);
setNumOfComments(commentCount);
// or use the updated numberOfComments value returned from hook
fetchArticleCommentCount(id);
// both are available, but you only need one or the other here
setCommentAuthor("");
setCommentContent("");
} catch (err) {
console.log(err);
}
};
return (
<>
<form onSubmit={postComment}>
// Here are some inputs, labels and a submit button
</form>
<h4 className={styles.h1}>Comments({numberOfComments})</h4>
</>
);
};
export default SingleArticle;

Redux Thunk data is stored as a string not as an object

I want store a new group as an object into the groups entity in the store. Everything works perfectly but the new group is stored as an object not as a string. I am using Mockoon to mock an API and the data type is set to be application/json. Can someone explain to me what might be the possible cause of this behavior? I am quite new on using redux so some input would be really appreciated too.
Thank you
const dispatch = useDispatch();
const initialGroupState = {
id: null,
name: "",
description: "",
members: []
}
const [group, setGroup] = useState(initialGroupState)
const [submitted, setSubmitted] = useState(false);
const handleInputChange = event => {
const { name, value } = event.target;
setGroup({ ...group, [name]: value });
};
const saveGroup = (e) => {
e.preventDefault();
const {name, description} = group;
dispatch(createGroup(name, description))
.then(data => {
setGroup({
id: Math.floor(Math.random() * 10000),
name: data.name,
description: data.description,
});
setSubmitted(true);
})
.catch(e => {
console.log(e);
});
}
const newGroup = () => {
setSubmitted(false);
};
My reducer:
const initialState = []
function groupsReducer(groups = initialState, action) {
const { type, payload } = action;
console.log([...groups]);
switch (type) {
case CREATE_GROUP:
return [...groups, payload];
case RETRIEVE_GROUPS:
return payload;
default:
return groups;
}
};
My actions:
export const createGroup = (name, description) => async (dispatch) => {
try {
const res = await GroupDataService.create({ name, description });
dispatch({
type: CREATE_GROUP,
payload: res.data,
});
console.log(res.data)
return Promise.resolve(res.data);
} catch (err) {
console.log(err)
return Promise.reject(err);
}
};

Cancelling my axios call on ReactJS but not working

I'm working on a project with graphs and I need to be able to cancel my requests if the user selects a different tab.
Here's my API call
export const getDifferentialData = (
sourceId: string,
sourceLine: string,
source: any
) => {
const graph1Request = getData(
sourceId,
sourceLine,
source
)
const graph2Request = getData(
sourceId,
sourceLine,
source
)
return Promise.all([graph1Request, graph2Request]).then(results => {
const [graphA, graphB] = results
return {
graphA: parsedData(graphA),
graphB: parsedData(graphB),
}
})
}
export const getData = (
sourceId: string,
sourceLine: string,
source?: any
) => {
if (sourceId && sourceLine) {
return api.get(`apiGoesHere`, { cancelToken: source.token }).then(response => {
const { data } = response
return parsedData(data)
})
} else {
return api.get(`apiGoesHere`, { cancelToken: source.token }).then(response => {
const { data } = response
return parsedData(data)
})
}
}
And the component where I'm doing the call. userDidChangeTab is called when pressing on a tab and it calls fetchGraph
const Graph: FC<Props> = () => {
const source = axios.CancelToken.source();
// we ensure that the query filters are up to date with the tab selected
const userDidChangeTab = (tabIndex: number) => {
const isDifferentialTabSelected = isDifferentialTab(tabIndex)
let newFilters = queryFilters
if (isDifferentialTabSelected) {
newFilters = {
// props go here
}
} else {
newFilters = {
// props go here
}
}
source.cancel()
fetchGraph(isDifferentialTabSelected)
setActiveTab(tabIndex)
}
// Function to fetch two differential graphs.
const fetchGraph = (isDifferential: boolean) => {
setFetching(true)
if (isDifferential) {
getDifferentialData(
sourceId,
sourceLine,
source
)
.then(({ graphA, graphB }: any) => {
setGraphData(graphA)
setMatchData(new diffMatch(graphA, graphB, 1.0))
})
.catch(reason => {
const errorMessage = errorMessageFromReason(reason)
addMessageToContainer(errorMessage, true)
})
.finally(() => {
setFetching(false)
})
} else {
getGraph(
sourceId,
sourceLine,
source
)
.then((graphData: any) => {
setGraphData(graphData)
setMatchData(null)
})
.catch(reason => {
const errorMessage = errorMessageFromReason(reason)
addMessageToContainer(errorMessage, true)
})
.finally(() => {
setFetching(false)
})
}
}
}
