Now I have created this custom hook to perform lazy loading,which takes redux slice action as input and
import { useState, useEffect, useCallback, useRef } from "react";
import { useDispatch } from "react-redux";
function useLazyFetch(fetchAction) {
const dispatch = useDispatch();
const [page, setPage] = useState(1);
const [loading, setLoading] = useState(false);
const loadMoreRef = useRef(null);
const handleObserver = useCallback(async(entries) => {
const [target] = entries;
console.log(target.isIntersecting);
if (target.isIntersecting) {
console.log("INTERSECTING.....");
await new Promise((r) => setTimeout(r, 2000));
setPage((prev) => prev + 1);
}
}, []);
useEffect(() => {
const option = {
root: null,
rootMargin: "0px",
threshold: 1.0,
};
const observer = new IntersectionObserver(handleObserver, option);
if (loadMoreRef.current) observer.observe(loadMoreRef.current);
}, [handleObserver]);
const fetchApi = useCallback(async () => {
try {
setLoading(true);
await new Promise((r) => setTimeout(r, 2000));
dispatch(fetchAction(page))
setLoading(false);
} catch (err) {
console.error(err);
}
}, [page,fetchAction,dispatch]);
useEffect(() => {
fetchApi();
}, [fetchApi]);
return { loading, loadMoreRef };
}
export default useLazyFetch;
I am using this in my component like this, here you can see I am tracking div in the bottom using loadMoreRef from useLazyFetch, Now when I am commenting out the fetchApi(); from custom hook its working as expected, on scroll its logging INTERSECTING... in the console but the moment I try to execute the action through fetchApi() my whole app goes into loop,the div tracker with ref comes to top and it fetches the posts but after immediately that action repeats the tracker comes to top and page becomes empty & it fetches next set of posts,I can see that my list is getting appended new set of posts to state in redux dev tool instead of completely setting new state, but in UI it's rendering all posts again and again whic is causing the loop,how can I avoid this ?
import { CircularProgress, Grid, IconButton, Typography } from "#mui/material";
import { Box } from "#mui/system";
import React, { useEffect,useRef,useState } from "react";
import AssistantIcon from "#mui/icons-material/Assistant";
import Post from "../components/Post";
import { useDispatch, useSelector } from "react-redux";
import { getPosts } from "../redux/postSlice";
import AddPost from "../components/AddPost";
import useLazyFetch from "../hooks/useLazyFetch";
export default function Home() {
const dispatch = useDispatch();
// const api = `https://picsum.photos/v2/list`
const { status, posts } = useSelector((state) => state.post);
const {loading,loadMoreRef} = useLazyFetch(getPosts)
useEffect(() => {
dispatch(getPosts());
}, []);
return (
<Box>
<Box borderBottom="1px solid #ccc" padding="8px 20px">
<Grid container justifyContent="space-between" alignItems="center">
<Grid item>
<Typography variant="h6">Home</Typography>
</Grid>
<Grid item>
<IconButton>
<AssistantIcon />
</IconButton>
</Grid>
</Grid>
</Box>
<Box height="92vh" sx={{ overflowY: "scroll" }}>
<AddPost />
<Box textAlign="center" marginTop="1rem">
{status === "loading" && (
<CircularProgress size={20} color="primary" />
)}
</Box>
{status === "success" &&
posts?.map((post) => <Post key={post._id} post={post} />)}
<div style={{height:"50px",width:"100px",backgroundColor:"red"}} ref={loadMoreRef}>{loading && <p>loading...</p>}</div>
</Box>
</Box>
);
}
And here is my redux action & state update part
const initialState = {
status: "idle",
posts: []
};
export const getPosts = createAsyncThunk("post/getPosts", async (page) => {
console.log(page);
console.log("calling api ...");
const { data } = await axios.get(`/api/posts?page=${page}`);
return data;
});
export const postSlice = createSlice({
name: "post",
initialState,
reducers: {},
extraReducers: {
[getPosts.pending]: (state, action) => {
state.status = "loading";
},
[getPosts.fulfilled]: (state, action) => {
state.status = "success";
state.posts = [...state.posts,...action.payload.response.posts] ;
},
[getPosts.rejected]: (state, action) => {
state.status = "failed";
},
}
this is the solution that is working
import { CircularProgress, Grid, IconButton, Typography } from "#mui/material";
import { Box } from "#mui/system";
import React, { useEffect,useMemo } from "react";
import AssistantIcon from "#mui/icons-material/Assistant";
import Post from "../components/Post";
import { useDispatch, useSelector } from "react-redux";
import { getPosts } from "../redux/postSlice";
import AddPost from "../components/AddPost";
import useLazyFetch from "../hooks/useLazyFetch";
export default function Home() {
const { status, posts } = useSelector((state) => state.post);
const {loading,loadMoreRef} = useLazyFetch(getPosts)
const renderedPostList = useMemo(() => (
posts.map((post) => {
return( <Post key={post._id.toString()} post={post} />)
})
), [posts])
return (
<Box>
<Box borderBottom="1px solid #ccc" padding="8px 20px">
<Grid container justifyContent="space-between" alignItems="center">
<Grid item>
<Typography variant="h6">Home</Typography>
</Grid>
<Grid item>
<IconButton>
<AssistantIcon />
</IconButton>
</Grid>
</Grid>
</Box>
<Box height="92vh" sx={{ overflowY: "scroll" }}>
<AddPost />
<Box textAlign="center" marginTop="1rem">
{status === "loading" && (
<CircularProgress size={20} color="primary" />
)}
</Box>
{renderedPostList}
<div style={{height:"50px",width:"100px",backgroundColor:"red"}} ref={loadMoreRef}>{loading && <p>loading...</p>}</div>
</Box>
</Box>
);
}
}
I used useMemo hook to memoize and it works as expected

I am trying to fetch the local json data and then using it inside my component.
I have mentioned the extraReducers while keeping the reducer empty. Below is the code,
import { createAsyncThunk, configureStore } from "#reduxjs/toolkit";
export const fetchData = createAsyncThunk('data/fetch', async () =>{
const response = await fetch('../src/assets/relatives.json');
const data = await response.json();
return data;
})
const dataSlice = {
name: 'data',
initialState: [],
reducers: {},
extraReducers: (builder) => {
builder
.addCase(fetchData.pending, (state) => {
state.status = 'loading';
})
.addCase(fetchData.fulfilled, (state, action) => {
state.status = 'succeeded';
state.data = action.payload;
})
.addCase(fetchData.rejected, (state, action) => {
state.status = 'failed';
state.error = action.error.message;
});
},
};
const store = configureStore({
reducer:{
data: dataSlice,
},
preloadedState: {data:[]},
})
export default store;
This is my component:
import React, { useEffect } from "react";
import Card from "#mui/material/Card";
import CardActions from "#mui/material/CardActions";
import CardContent from "#mui/material/CardContent";

const FamilyFolder = () => {
const dispatch = useDispatch();
const data = useSelector((state = state.data.data));
const status = useSelector((state) => state.data.status);
useEffect(() => {
dispatch(fetchData());
}, [dispatch]);
if (status === "loading") {

I have added the preloadedState inside the store as initial state but that is also not working.
Should i mention anything inside reducer: {} ?. If yes, please tell what i should do
I have created an empty object variable named workspacesData through the context api which is available globally across the app. I am trying to set my api data to the variable within the helper function that is below (getWorkspacesData).
This function getWorkspacesData is then being called on another page of the application for when the user wants to pull in the data and have it displayed on the page. Problem is when the user presses the button I get the error "Invalid hook call. Hooks can only be called inside of the body of a function component."
I know the issue is that I am using the useContext hook within this function, but how do I get around this issue? as I want to use the globally available variable to set the data to it.
getWorkspaces.js
import { useContext } from "react";
import { AppContext } from "../../../context/context";
import mavenlinkAPI from "../apiTools";
const GetWorkspaces = async (mavenlinkAccessToken) => {
const {setWorkspacesData} = useContext(AppContext);
try{
const data = await mavenlinkAPI(
'get',
'workspaces?token='+mavenlinkAccessToken,
);
console.log(data)
setWorkspacesData(data);
} catch (error) {
console.log(error)
}
}
export default GetWorkspaces;

};
You can call the hook inside your component and pass the returned value from it to the function:
const getWorkspaces = async (mavenlinkAccessToken, onSuccess) => {
try{
const data = await mavenlinkAPI(
'get',
'workspaces?token='+mavenlinkAccessToken,
);
onSuccess?.(data)
} catch (error) {
console.log(error)
}
}
And call it as:
export const MavenlinkPage = () => {
const { setWorkspacesData } = useContext(AppContext);
...
onClick={() => getWorkspaces(mavenlinkAccessToken, setWorkspacesData )}
}
Or create a custom hook:
const useGetWorkspaces = (mavenlinkAccessToken) => {
const { setWorkspacesData } = useContext(AppContext);
return async () => {
try{
const data = await mavenlinkAPI(
'get',
'workspaces?token='+mavenlinkAccessToken,
);
setWorkspacesData(data);
} catch (error) {
console.log(error)
}
}
}
And use it like:
export const MavenlinkPage = () => {
const getWorkspaces = useGetWorkspaces(mavenlinkAccessToken);
...
onClick={() => getWorkspaces()}
}
In my application, I have a form that is supposed to search for the workout components that I have displayed based on two fields: category and difficulty. When I search, I can see that the URL changes properly, but the cards are not filtered at all. They disappear. Below I have the code for the component where the search is made:
import React, {useState, useEffect} from 'react'

import ChipInput from 'material-ui-chip-input'
import Workouts from "../Workouts/Workouts";
import Pagination from '../Pagination';
import Form from "../Form/Form";
import useStyles from './styles';
function useQuery(){
return new URLSearchParams(useLocation().search);
}
function Home() {
const [currentId, setCurrentId]=useState(null);
const classes=useStyles();
const dispatch=useDispatch();
const query=useQuery();
const history=useNavigate();
const page=query.get('page')||1;
const searchQuery=query.get('searchQuery');
const [search, setSearch] = useState('');
const [category, setCategory] = useState([]);
const searchWorkout=()=>{
if(search.trim() || category){
dispatch(getWorkoutsBySearch({search, category:category.join(',')}));
history(`/workouts/search?searchQuery=${search || 'none'} & category=${category.join(',')}`)
}else{
history(`/workouts`);
}
}
useEffect(()=>{
dispatch(getWorkouts());
},[currentId, dispatch]);
const handleKeyPress=(e)=>{
if(e.keyCode===13){
searchWorkout();
}
}
const handleAdd=(categ)=>setCategory([...category,categ]);
const handleDelete=(categoryToDelete)=>setCategory(category.filter((categ)=>categ!==categoryToDelete));
const user = JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem("profile"));
return (
<Grow in>
<Container maxWidth="xl">

The backend request is the following one:
export const getWorkoutsBySearch = async (req, res) => {
const { searchQuery, category } = req.query;
try {
const difficulty = new RegExp(searchQuery, "i");
const workouts = await WorkoutMessage.find({ $or: [ { category }, { difficulty } ]});
res.json({ data: workouts });
console.log(workouts);
} catch (error) {
res.status(404).json({ message: error.message });
}
}
The search in the actions folder is this one:
export const getWorkouts=()=> async (dispatch)=>{
try{
const data=await api.fetchWorkouts();
dispatch({type:FETCH_ALL,payload:data});
}catch(error){
console.log(error);
}
}
export const getWorkoutsBySearch=(searchQuery)=>async(dispatch)=>{
try{
const {data: {data}}=await api.fetchWorkoutsBySearch(searchQuery);
dispatch({type:FETCH_BY_SEARCH,payload:data});
}catch(error){
console.log(error);
}
}
The reducer is below:
case FETCH_BY_SEARCH:
return action.payload;
Could you help me solve this?
I am experiencing so really strange behaviour in this personal project i am doing. In short it is a recipe website, with buttons at the top that direct to different pages that ultimately query firebase and pull down a query.
Index.js File - Queries Firestore passes props to FoodCard.js to Render a list of all recipes
breakfast.js - Queries Firestore with a filter and passes same props down (with different results) to FoodCard.js
Behaviour
When i click on Breakfast JS, it brings up my list of filtered results correctly, however when i click my Next Link "Welcome to the Family Heirloom" to return to the index the first click doesnt respond, then the second click returns home, but with the filtered breakfast result concatonated with all the original results (effectively causing duplicates)Index on First Render
Breakfast filter successful
index with the now duplicate pancake result
I have messed about wondering if useEffect is not getting triggered which you may see in the code, but that didnt seem to work, so at a loss

Cracked it, although i can't fully explain why. In my learning i used two different methods for interfacing with firebase. The first method on the index page was what i would call the older way. The second method i used was in all of my other files, specific to interfacing with Version 9 of Firebase.
from this:
const subscriber = firebase.firestore()
.collection("recipes")
.onSnapshot((querySnapshot) => {
querySnapshot.forEach((doc) => {
console.log(querySnapshot)
getRecipesFromFirebase.push({
...doc.data(), //spread operator
key: doc.id, // `id` given to us by Firebase
});
});
to this:
let getRecipesFromFirebase = [];
getDocs(colRef)
.then((snapshot) => {
let getRecipesFromFirebase = [];
snapshot.docs.forEach((doc) => {
getRecipesFromFirebase.push({ ...doc.data(), key: doc.id })
})
setRecipes(getRecipesFromFirebase);
console.log(recipes);
setLoading(false);
})
.catch(error => {
console.log(error.message)
})
Would love somebody more knowledgable (3 months into React) than myself to tell me as to why though.
I am making a small blog application using react js. I have a context api for the user inputs, so that the data can be used globally across components (InputContext.js). Using react router, the user is able to view a list of all blog entries (AllBlogs.js) and view each one of them in detail (BlogDetail.js). What I am trying to achieve is, allow the user to get a detailed view of an individual blog post component from the AllBlogs.js page. All blogs have an "id" property, which is used to query the url and using the array.find method, it is supposed to show a detailed view of the blog with the matching id. The problem is "findBlogs" in BlogDetails that is being passed as a prop to display the detailed individual blog data always only returns the most recent user input value, therefore all blogs show the exact same information. I am unsure as to why this is happening, any guidance towards the right direction is greatly appreciated.

export const InputContext = createContext();
const InputContextProvider = (props) => {
const [blogPost, setBlogPost] = useState({
id: '',
title: '',
author: '',
text: ''
});
//create an array to push all the blogPosts
const [allBlogPosts, setAllBlogPosts] = useState([]);
console.log(allBlogPosts)
//put value inside useMemo so that the component only rerenders when there is change in the value
const value = useMemo(() => ({ blogPost, setBlogPost, allBlogPosts, setAllBlogPosts }), [blogPost, allBlogPosts])
return (
<InputContext.Provider value={value}>
{props.children}
</InputContext.Provider>
)
}

Issue
Ah, I see what is happening... had to dig back through your edits to when you included your context code.
In your provider you for some reason store an array of blogs (this part makes sense), but then you also store the last blog that was edited.
const InputContextProvider = (props) => {
const [blogPost, setBlogPost] = useState({
id: '',
title: '',
author: '',
text: ''
});
//create an array to push all the blogPosts
const [allBlogPosts, setAllBlogPosts] = useState([]);
//put value inside useMemo so that the component only rerenders when there is change in the value
const value = useMemo(() => ({
blogPost, // <-- last blog edited
setBlogPost,
allBlogPosts,
setAllBlogPosts
}), [blogPost, allBlogPosts])
return (
<InputContext.Provider value={value}>
{props.children}
</InputContext.Provider>
)
}
export const WriteBlogPost = () => {
...
const [blog, setBlog] = useState({
id: '',
title: '',
author: '',
text: ''
});
...
const { setBlogPost } = useContext(InputContext);
const { allBlogPosts, setAllBlogPosts } = useContext(InputContext)
const handleBlogPost = () => {
setBlogPost(blog); // <-- saves last blog edited/added
setAllBlogPosts([...allBlogPosts, blog]);
history.push("/blogs");
}
const handleChange = (e) => {
const value = e.target.value
setBlog({
...blog,
id: uuidv4(),
[e.target.name]: value
})
}
return (
...
)
}
When you are mapping the blog posts you form incorrect links.
export const AllBlogs = () => {
const classes = useStyles();
const {
allBlogPosts,
blogPost // <-- last blog updated
} = useContext(InputContext);
return (
<div>
...
{allBlogPosts.map((post, i) =>
<Card variant="outlined" key={i} className={classes.root}>
<CardContent>
...
<Link to={`/blogs/${blogPost.id}`}> // <-- link last blog updated id
Read blog
</Link>
</CardContent>
</Card>
)}
</div>
)
}
Solution
Use the current blog post's id when mapping to form the link correctly.
export const AllBlogs = () => {
const classes = useStyles();
const { allBlogPosts } = useContext(InputContext);
return (
<div>
...
{allBlogPosts.map((post, i) =>
<Card variant="outlined" key={post.id} className={classes.root}>
<CardContent>
...
<Link to={`/blogs/${post.id}`}> // <-- link current post id
Read blog
</Link>
</CardContent>
</Card>
)}
</div>
)
}
