When i call this function
getQuestions = () => {
this.setState({ loading: true })
const { data } = this.props
axios
.get(data.questions)
.then((res) => {
this.setState({
loading: false,
questions: res.data,
})
this.initialQuestions = res.data
})
.catch((err) =>
this.setState({
loading: false,
questions: [],
})
)
}
it updates the array questions in state and array initialQuestions variable in constructor. The state questions represents the values form inputs. The inputs are handled in child component with this code
onChange = (e) => {
const { hasChanged, setQuestions } = this.props
// Update questions
let questions = this.props.questions
questions[e.target.getAttribute('data-id')][e.target.name] =
e.target.value
setQuestions(questions)
}
setQuestions is passed in props as setQuestions={(state) => this.setState({ questions: state })}
So when i change the value of inputs the onChange function is called and it changes the parent component questions in state. But the parent variable this.initialQuestions also is being changed to the questions value from state, but I don't know why
Edit:
That's the code you should be able to run

Both state questions and class variable initialQuestions hold reference of res.data. Now when you update questions in onChange method, you are updating it by reference i.e directly mutating it and hence the class variable is also updated
You must not update it by reference but clone and update like below
onChange = (e) => {
const { hasChanged, setQuestions } = this.props
// Update questions
let questions = this.props.questions
questions = questions.map((question, idx) => {
if(idx === e.target.getAttribute('data-id')) {
return {
...question,
[e.target.name]: e.target.value
}
}
return question;
});
setQuestions(questions)
}

I am using firebase and react js. my forEach loop is only supposed to repeat for the number of objects I have stored in the firebase database but instead of repeated the expected 3 times it will repeat 8 or 9 or something like that. Also when I run the code a second time it will repeat super fast and fill up my console.
constructor() {
super()
this.state = {
warmupList: [],
title: "",
id: ""
}
}
handleInputChange = (e) => {
this.setState({

})
}
SetActiveWarmup(id) {
const warmupRef = firebase.database().ref("Warmups")
warmupRef.on("value",(snapshot) => {
const warmups = snapshot.val()
this is where the for each is
Object.keys(warmups).forEach(key => {
if(id === key) {
warmupRef.child(key).update({
activity: "True"
})
} else {
warmupRef.child(key).update({
activity: "False"
})
}
console.log("has run")
})
})
}
createWarmup = (e) => {
e.preventDefault()
if(this.state.title === "") return
const warmupRef = firebase.database().ref("Warmups")
var key = warmupRef.push().key
warmupRef.child(key).set({

When I try to edit my created task, I see some modifications, but only in local State. When I look at the data of the global state, nothing change, the data remains the same as after creating the tasks object.
It is also interesting to note that when case EDIT_TASK has worked , action.id = values from Input, and action.task = undefined
P.S: Put all the component code below, maybe there was a mistake somewhere.
P.S: Sorry for ENG
Component's code
import React from 'react'
import s from "./../../App.module.css";
class Item extends React.Component {
state = {
statusChange: false,
task: this.props.task
}
activeStatusChange = () => {
this.setState( {
statusChange: true
}
);
}
deActivateStatusChange = () => {
this.setState( {
statusChange: false
}
);
this.props.editTask(this.props.task)
}
onStatusChange = (e) => {
this.setState({
task: e.target.value
})
}
render(){
return (
<div className={s.item}>
<span onClick={this.props.editStatus} className={s.statusTask}>
{this.props.status ? <img src="https://img.icons8.com/doodle/48/000000/checkmark.png"/>
: <img src="https://img.icons8.com/emoji/48/000000/red-circle-emoji.png"/>}
</span>
{ this.state.statusChange
? <input onChange={this.onStatusChange} autoFocus={true} onBlur={this.deActivateStatusChange} value={this.state.task} />
: <span className={this.props.status === true ? s.task : s.taskFalse} onClick={this.activeStatusChange}> {this.state.task} </span>}
<span onClick={this.props.deleteTask} className={s.close}><img src="https://img.icons8.com/color/48/000000/close-window.png"/></span>

export default Item;
Reducer's code
import React from 'react'
import shortid from 'shortid';
const ADD_TASK = 'ADD_TASK'
const EDIT_TASK = 'EDIT_TASK'
const initialState = {
tasks: []
};
const mainReducer = (state = initialState, action) => {

}

}
}

}
}
//window.store.getState().mainReducer.tasks
export const addTask = task => ({type: 'ADD_TASK', task});
export const editTask = (id,newTask) => ({type: 'EDIT_TASK', id, newTask})
export default mainReducer;
Parent's component:
import React from "react";
import s from "./../../App.module.css";
import CurrentTasks from "../current-tasks";
import FilterButtonTasks from "../filter-button-tasks";
import ListTasks from "../tasks-list";
class SetForm extends React.Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props);
this.state = {
text: ''
}
}
onInputChange = event => {
this.setState({
[event.target.name]: event.target.value
})
}
handleSubmit = event => {
event.preventDefault();
if(this.state.text === '') {
return undefined
}
this.props.addTask(this.state.text)
this.setState({

})
}

}
default:
return tasks;
}
}
render() {
const currentTasks = this.filterTasks(this.props.tasks, this.props.filter);
return (
<div>
<form onSubmit={this.handleSubmit}>
<div>
<input name={"text"} onChange={this.onInputChange} value={this.state.text}placeholder={"Set your task"} className={s.setTask}/>
<button onClick={this.handleSubmit} className={s.add}>ADD</button>
<button onClick={this.props.removeAllTasks} className={s.clearAll}>Clear</button>
</div>
</form>
<CurrentTasks tasks={this.props.tasks}/>
<ListTasks currentTasks={currentTasks} editStatus={this.props.editStatus} deleteTask={this.props.deleteTask} editTask={this.props.editTask}/>
<FilterButtonTasks currentTasks={currentTasks} changeFilter={this.props.changeFilter} removeAllDone={this.props.removeAllDone}/>
</div>
)
}
}
export default SetForm;
one more:
import React from 'react'
import Item from './SetItem/item'
const ListTasks = ({currentTasks,editStatus,deleteTask,editTask}) => {
return (
currentTasks.map(t => (<Item editStatus={() => editStatus(t.id)}
deleteTask={() => deleteTask(t.id)}
key={t.id} task={t.task} status={t.status} editTask={editTask}/>))
)
}
export default ListTasks;
Since, you are only updating the local state onStatusChange the state does not get updated in global state. So on deActivateStatusChange you need to call this.props.editTask with updated state, that is this.state.task
deActivateStatusChange = () => {
this.setState({
statusChange: false
});
this.props.editTask(this.state.task); // change is here
};
The problem is in your EDIT_TASK reducer:
Change
state.tasks.filter((t) => t.id === action.id ? {...t, task: action.newTask} : t)
To
state.tasks.map((t) => t.id === action.id ? {...t, task: action.newTask} : t)
map will update the object, not filter
Code should be:
case EDIT_TASK: {
return {
...state,
tasks: state.tasks.map((t) => t.id === action.id ? {...t, task: action.newTask} : t)
}
}
Also it seems like you are not passing id and newTask to editTask action:
const ListTasks = ({ currentTasks, editStatus, deleteTask, editTask }) => {
return currentTasks.map(t => (
<Item
editStatus={() => editStatus(t.id)}
deleteTask={() => deleteTask(t.id)}
key={t.id}
task={t.task}
status={t.status}
editTask={(newTask) => editTask(t.id, newTask)} // change current code to this
/>
));
};
First problem: Why, if I enter one letter in input, console.log (this.state.results.length) does not show me 1. Only after entering two letters console.log (this.state.results.length) shows me 2.
Second problem: I will type three letters, then remove two letters, console.log (this.state.results.length) should show me 1 and show2. The same is when I clear the input it should show 0;
Demo here: https://stackblitz.com/edit/react-frleaq
class App extends Component {
constructor() {
super();
this.state = {
results: ''
};
}
_handleSearch = query => {
this.setState({
results: query
})
}
render() {
console.log(this.state.results.length)
return (
<div>
<AsyncTypeahead
clearButton
id="basic-example"
labelKey="name"
onSearch={this._handleSearch}
/>
</div>
);
}
}
You can use onInputChange to handle text changes and you can keep the text in state. This way you can check it's length and do whatever you want.
Example:
import React from "react";
import { AsyncTypeahead } from "react-bootstrap-typeahead";
import "bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.css";
import "react-bootstrap-typeahead/css/Typeahead.css";
class App extends React.Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props);
this.state = {
isLoading: false,
multiple: true,
options: [],
selectedUsers: [],
currentInput: ""
};
}
handleSearch = query => {
this.setState({ isLoading: true });
fetch(
`https://api.github.com/search/users?q=${query}+in:login&page=1&per_page=3`
)
.then(resp => resp.json())
.then(({ items }) => {
const options = items.map(i => ({
id: i.id,
name: i.login
}));
return { options };
})
.then(({ options }) => {
this.setState({
isLoading: false,
options
});
});
};
handleChange = selectedItems => {
this.setState({
selectedUsers: selectedItems,
currentInput: ""
});
};
handleInputChange = input => {
this.setState({
currentInput: input
});
};
render() {
const { selectedUsers, isLoading, options, currentInput } = this.state;
return (
<div>
<AsyncTypeahead
clearButton
id="basic-example"
isLoading={isLoading}
options={options}
minLength={3}
multiple
labelKey="name"
onSearch={query => this.handleSearch(query)}
onChange={selectedItems => this.handleChange(selectedItems)}
onInputChange={input => this.handleInputChange(input)}
placeholder="Search for users"
/>
<hr />
<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
{currentInput.length > 0 && <button>MY BUTTON</button>}
<hr />
Selected {selectedUsers.length} Users: <br />
<ul>
{selectedUsers.map(user => (
<li key={user.id}>{user.name}</li>
))}
</ul>
</div>
);
}
}
export default App;
Trying to delete the contents of the input field by pressing backspace. However, nothing can be deleted. When I delete onChange = {this.handleSelectContractor} the field can be cleared, but after adding onChange = {this.handleSelectContractor} nothing can be done.
Pass selected todo to the handleSelect and assign it to the variable selected. The variable selected should appear in the input field
Demo here: https://stackblitz.com/edit/react-agfvwn?file=index.js
class App extends Component {
constructor() {
super();
this.state = {
todos: [],
selected: [],
todo: {},
todo2: 'ddd'
};
}
componentDidMount() {
this.getTodos().then(() => {
const todo = this.state.todos.find(todo => todo.id === 4);
this.setState({
selected: todo ? [todo] : []
})
})
}
getTodos = () => {
return axios({
url: 'https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/todos',
method: "GET"
})
.then(res => {
this.setState({
todos: res.data
});
})
.catch(error => {
console.log(error);
})
}
handleSelect = (todo) => {
let newArray = [...this.state.selected];
newArray.push(todo)
if(todo) {
this.setState({
todo: newArray
})
} else {
this.setState({
todo2: ''
})
}
}
render() {
console.log(this.state.todo)
return (
<div>
<Typeahead
id={'sasas'}
selected={this.state.selected}
labelKey="title"
onChange={this.handleSelect}
options={this.state.todos}
ref={(ref) => this._typeahead = ref}
/>
</div>
);
}

The code actually works, it hide or show the components correctly but the thing is that i can't do anything inside componentdidupdate because the prevProps prevState and props are always the same.
I think the problem is that I'm mutating always the same object, but I could not find the way to do it.
What I have to do there is to fill the dropdown item.
Ps: The "real" code works, i adapt it in order to post it here.
React state is supposed to be immutable. Since you're mutating state, you break the ability to tell whether the state has changed. In particular, i think this is the main spot causing your problem:
this.setState((prevState) => {
prevState.components = Object.keys(MY_COMPONENTS).map((k) => {
const field = {
name: k,
required: 0,
show: true,
}; return {
field, component: MY_COMPONENTS[k],
};
});
return prevState;
});
You mutate the previous states to changes its components property. Instead, create a new state:
this.setState(prevState => {
const components = Object.keys(MY_COMPONENTS).map((k) => {
const field = {
name: k,
required: 0,
show: true,
};
return {
field, component: MY_COMPONENTS[k],
};
});
return { components }
}
You have an additional place where you're mutating state. I don't know if it's causing your particular problem, but it's worth mentioning anyway:
const pComponents = [].concat(this.state.components);
// const pComponents = [...this.state.components];
pComponents.forEach((c) => {
c.field.required = 0;
c.field.show = false;
});
response.data.forEach((r) => {
const ob = pComponents.find(c => c.field.name === r.name);
if (ob) {
ob.field.required = r.required;
ob.field.show = true;
}
});
You do at make a copy of state.components, but this will only be a shallow copy. The array is a new array, but the objects inside the array are the old objects. So when you set ob.field.required, you are mutating the old state as well as the new.
If you want to change properties in the objects, you need to copy those objects at every level you're making a change. The spread syntax is usually the most succinct way to do this:
