React, useEfect and axios. infinite loop [duplicate]

Are there ways to simulate componentDidMount in React functional components via hooks?

For the stable version of hooks (React Version 16.8.0+)
For componentDidMount
useEffect(() => {
// Your code here
}, []);
For componentDidUpdate
useEffect(() => {
// Your code here
}, [yourDependency]);
For componentWillUnmount
useEffect(() => {
// componentWillUnmount
return () => {
// Your code here
}
}, [yourDependency]);
So in this situation, you need to pass your dependency into this array. Let's assume you have a state like this
const [count, setCount] = useState(0);
And whenever count increases you want to re-render your function component. Then your useEffect should look like this
useEffect(() => {
// <div>{count}</div>
}, [count]);
This way whenever your count updates your component will re-render. Hopefully this will help a bit.

There is no exact equivalent for componentDidMount in react hooks.
In my experience, react hooks requires a different mindset when developing it and generally speaking you should not compare it to the class methods like componentDidMount.
With that said, there are ways in which you can use hooks to produce a similar effect to componentDidMount.
Solution 1:
useEffect(() => {
console.log("I have been mounted")
}, [])
Solution 2:
const num = 5
useEffect(() => {
console.log("I will only run if my deps change: ", num)
}, [num])
Solution 3 (With function):
useEffect(() => {
const someFunc = () => {
console.log("Function being run after/on mount")
}
someFunc()
}, [])
Solution 4 (useCallback):
const msg = "some message"
const myFunc = useCallback(() => {
console.log(msg)
}, [msg])
useEffect(() => {
myFunc()
}, [myFunc])
Solution 5 (Getting creative):
export default function useDidMountHook(callback) {
const didMount = useRef(null)
useEffect(() => {
if (callback && !didMount.current) {
didMount.current = true
callback()
}
})
}
It is worth noting that solution 5 should only really be used if none of the other solutions work for your use case. If you do decide you need solution 5 then I recommend using this pre-made hook use-did-mount.
Source (With more detail): Using componentDidMount in react hooks

There's no componentDidMount on functional components, but React Hooks provide a way you can emulate the behavior by using the useEffect hook.
Pass an empty array as the second argument to useEffect() to run only the callback on mount only.
Please read the documentation on useEffect.
function ComponentDidMount() {
const [count, setCount] = React.useState(0);
React.useEffect(() => {
console.log('componentDidMount');
}, []);
return (
<div>
<p>componentDidMount: {count} times</p>
<button
onClick={() => {
setCount(count + 1);
}}
>
Click Me
</button>
</div>
);
}
ReactDOM.render(
<div>
<ComponentDidMount />
</div>,
document.querySelector("#app")
);
<script src="https://unpkg.com/react#16.7.0-alpha.0/umd/react.development.js"></script>
<script src="https://unpkg.com/react-dom#16.7.0-alpha.0/umd/react-dom.development.js"></script>
<div id="app"></div>

useEffect() hook allows us to achieve the functionality of componentDidMount, componentDidUpdate componentWillUnMount functionalities.
Different syntaxes of useEffect() allows to achieve each of the above methods.
i) componentDidMount
useEffect(() => {
//code here
}, []);
ii) componentDidUpdate
useEffect(() => {
//code here
}, [x,y,z]);
//where x,y,z are state variables on whose update, this method should get triggered
iii) componentDidUnmount
useEffect(() => {
//code here
return function() {
//code to be run during unmount phase
}
}, []);

Although accepted answer works, it is not recommended. When you have more than one state and you use it with useEffect, it will give you warning about adding it to dependency array or not using it at all.
It sometimes causes the problem which might give you unpredictable output. So I suggest that you take a little effort to rewrite your function as class. There are very little changes, and you can have some components as class and some as function. You're not obligated to use only one convention.
Take this for example
function App() {
const [appointments, setAppointments] = useState([]);
const [aptId, setAptId] = useState(1);
useEffect(() => {
fetch('./data.json')
.then(response => response.json())
.then(result => {
const apts = result.map(item => {
item.aptId = aptId;
console.log(aptId);
setAptId(aptId + 1);
return item;
})
setAppointments(apts);
});
}, []);
return(...);
}
and
class App extends Component {
constructor() {
super();
this.state = {
appointments: [],
aptId: 1,
}
}
componentDidMount() {
fetch('./data.json')
.then(response => response.json())
.then(result => {
const apts = result.map(item => {
item.aptId = this.state.aptId;
this.setState({aptId: this.state.aptId + 1});
console.log(this.state.aptId);
return item;
});
this.setState({appointments: apts});
});
}
render(...);
}
This is only for example. so lets not talk about best practices or potential issues with the code. Both of this has same logic but the later only works as expected. You might get componentDidMount functionality with useEffect running for this time, but as your app grows, there are chances that you MAY face some issues. So, rather than rewriting at that phase, it's better to do this at early stage.
Besides, OOP is not that bad, if Procedure-Oriented Programming was enough, we would never have had Object-Oriented Programming. It's painful sometimes, but better (technically. personal issues aside).

import React, { useState, useEffect } from 'react';
function Example() {
const [count, setCount] = useState(0);
// Similar to componentDidMount and componentDidUpdate:
useEffect(() => {
// Update the document title using the browser API
document.title = `You clicked ${count} times`;
});
return (
<div>
<p>You clicked {count} times</p>
<button onClick={() => setCount(count + 1)}>
Click me
</button>
</div>
);
}
Please visit this official docs. Very easy to understand the latest way.
https://reactjs.org/docs/hooks-effect.html

Info about async functions inside the hook:
Effect callbacks are synchronous to prevent race conditions. Put the async function inside:
useEffect(() => {
async function fetchData() {
// You can await here
const response = await MyAPI.getData(someId);
// ...
}
fetchData();
}, [someId]); // Or [] if effect doesn't need props or state

useLayoutEffect hook is the best alternative to ComponentDidMount in React Hooks.
useLayoutEffect hook executes before Rendering UI and useEffect hook executes after rendering UI. Use it depend on your needs.
Sample Code:
import { useLayoutEffect, useEffect } from "react";
export default function App() {
useEffect(() => {
console.log("useEffect Statements");
}, []);
useLayoutEffect(() => {
console.log("useLayoutEffect Statements");
}, []);
return (
<div>
<h1>Hello Guys</h1>
</div>
);
}

Yes, there is a way to SIMULATE a componentDidMount in a React functional component
DISCLAIMER: The real problem here is that you need to change from "component life cycle mindset" to a "mindset of useEffect"
A React component is still a javascript function, so, if you want something to be executed BEFORE some other thing you must simply need to execute it first from top to bottom, if you think about it a function it's still a funtion like for example:
const myFunction = () => console.log('a')
const mySecondFunction = () => console.log('b)
mySecondFunction()
myFunction()
/* Result:
'b'
'a'
*/
That is really simple isn't it?
const MyComponent = () => {
const someCleverFunction = () => {...}
someCleverFunction() /* there I can execute it BEFORE
the first render (componentWillMount)*/
useEffect(()=> {
someCleverFunction() /* there I can execute it AFTER the first render */
},[]) /*I lie to react saying "hey, there are not external data (dependencies) that needs to be mapped here, trust me, I will leave this in blank.*/
return (
<div>
<h1>Hi!</h1>
</div>
)}
And in this specific case it's true. But what happens if I do something like that:
const MyComponent = () => {
const someCleverFunction = () => {...}
someCleverFunction() /* there I can execute it BEFORE
the first render (componentWillMount)*/
useEffect(()=> {
someCleverFunction() /* there I can execute it AFTER the first render */
},[]) /*I lie to react saying "hey, there are not external data (dependencies) that needs to be maped here, trust me, I will leave this in blank.*/
return (
<div>
<h1>Hi!</h1>
</div>
)}
This "cleverFunction" we are defining it's not the same in every re-render of the component.
This lead to some nasty bugs and, in some cases to unnecessary re-renders of components or infinite re-render loops.
The real problem with that is that a React functional component is a function that "executes itself" several times depending on your state thanks to the useEffect hook (among others).
In short useEffect it's a hook designed specifically to synchronize your data with whatever you are seeing on the screen. If your data changes, your useEffect hook needs to be aware of that, always. That includes your methods, for that it's the array dependencies.
Leaving that undefined leaves you open to hard-to-find bugs.
Because of that it's important to know how this work, and what you can do to get what you want in the "react" way.
const initialState = {
count: 0,
step: 1,
done: false
};
function reducer(state, action) {
const { count, step } = state;
if (action.type === 'doSomething') {
if(state.done === true) return state;
return { ...state, count: state.count + state.step, state.done:true };
} else if (action.type === 'step') {
return { ...state, step: action.step };
} else {
throw new Error();
}
}
const MyComponent = () => {
const [state, dispatch] = useReducer(reducer, initialState);
const { count, step } = state;
useEffect(() => {
dispatch({ type: 'doSomething' });
}, [dispatch]);
return (
<div>
<h1>Hi!</h1>
</div>
)}
useReducer's dispatch method it's static so it means it will be the same method no matter the amount of times your component is re-rendered. So if you want to execute something just once and you want it rigth after the component is mounted, you can do something like the above example. This is a declarative way of do it right.
Source: The Complete Guide to useEffect - By Dan Abramov
That being said if you like to experiment with things and want to know how to do it "the imperative wat" you can use a useRef() with a counter or a boolean to check if that ref stores a defined reference or not, this is an imperative approach and it's recommended to avoid it if you're not familiar with what happen with react behind curtains.
That is because useRef() is a hook that saves the argument passed to it regardless of the amount of renders (I am keeping it simple because it's not the focus of the problem here, you can read this amazing article about useRef ). So it's the best approach to known when the first render of the component happened.
I leave an example showing 3 different ways of synchronise an "outside" effect (like an external function) with the "inner" component state.
You can run this snippet right here to see the logs and understand when these 3 functions are executed.
const { useRef, useState, useEffect, useCallback } = React
// External functions outside react component (like a data fetch)
function renderOnce(count) {
console.log(`renderOnce: I executed ${count} times because my default state is: undefined by default!`);
}
function renderOnFirstReRender(count) {
console.log(`renderOnUpdate: I executed just ${count} times!`);
}
function renderOnEveryUpdate(count) {
console.log(`renderOnEveryUpdate: I executed ${count ? count + 1 : 1} times!`);
}
const MyComponent = () => {
const [count, setCount] = useState(undefined);
const mounted = useRef(0);
// useCallback is used just to avoid warnings in console.log
const renderOnEveryUpdateCallBack = useCallback(count => {
renderOnEveryUpdate(count);
}, []);
if (mounted.current === 0) {
renderOnce(count);
}
if (mounted.current === 1) renderOnFirstReRender(count);
useEffect(() => {
mounted.current = mounted.current + 1;
renderOnEveryUpdateCallBack(count);
}, [count, renderOnEveryUpdateCallBack]);
return (
<div>
<h1>{count}</h1>
<button onClick={() => setCount(prevState => (prevState ? prevState + 1 : 1))}>TouchMe</button>
</div>
);
};
class App extends React.Component {
render() {
return (
<div>
<h1>hI!</h1>
</div>
);
}
}
ReactDOM.createRoot(
document.getElementById("root")
).render(
<MyComponent/>
);
<div id="root"></div>

<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/react-dom/18.1.0/umd/react-dom.development.js"></script>
If you execute it you will see something like this:

You want to use useEffect(), which, depending on how you use the function, can act just like componentDidMount().
Eg. you could use a custom loaded state property which is initially set to false, and switch it to true on render, and only fire the effect when this value changes.
Documentation

the exact equivalent hook for componentDidMount() is
useEffect(()=>{},[]);
hope this helpful :)

How to subscribe on updates within ReactReduxContext.Consumer?

I would like to figure out how to subscribe on updates of a stored value it the redux store.
So far I've tried something like the following:
<ReactReduxContext.Consumer>
{({store}) => {
console.log('store:', store.getState());
const p = <p>{store.getState().value}</p>;
store.subscribe(() => {p.innerText = store.getState().value});
return p;
}}
</ReactReduxContext.Consumer>
bumping into the TypeError: can't define property "innerText": Object is not extensible error on updates.
So I wonder how to update the contents?

There are a few things about your code that are just not the way that we do things in React.
React is its own system for interacting with the DOM, so you should not attempt direct DOM manipulation through .innerText. Your code doesn't work because the variable p which you create is a React JSX Element rather than a raw HTML paragraph element, so it doesn't have properties like innerText.
Instead, you just return the correct JSX code based on props and state. The code will get updated any time that props or state change.
The ReactReduxContext is used internally by the react-redux package. Unless you have a good reason to use it in your app, I would not recommend it. There are two built-in ways that you can get a current value of state that is already subscribed to changes.
useSelector hook
(recommended)
export const MyComponent1 = () => {
const value = useSelector(state => state.value);
return <p>{value}</p>
}
connect higher-order component
(needed for class components which cannot use hooks)
class ClassComponent extends React.Component {
render() {
return <p>{this.props.value}</p>
}
}
const mapStateToProps = state => ({
value: state.value
});
const MyComponent2 = connect(mapStateToProps)(ClassComponent)
ReactReduxContext
(not recommended)
If anyone reading this has a good reason why they should need to use store.subscribe(), proper usage would look something like this:
const MyComponent3 = () => {
const { store } = useContext(ReactReduxContext);
const [state, setState] = useState(store.getState());
useEffect(() => {
let isMounted = true;
store.subscribe(() => {
if (isMounted) {
setState(store.getState());
}
});
// cleanup function to prevent calls to setState on an unmounted component
return () => {
isMounted = false;
};
}, [store]);
return <p>{state.value}</p>;
};

React watch imported class property

I'm importing a plain class to my react (functional) component and want to be notified when an imported class property is set/updated. I've tried setting my imported class with just new, as a state variable with useState, as a ref with useRef - and have tried passing each one as a parameter to useEffect, but none of them are triggering the useEffect function when the property is updated a second time.
I've excluded all other code to drill down to the problem. I'm using Typescript, so my plain vanilla MyClass looks like this:
class MyClass {
userId: string
user: User?
constructor(userId: string){
this.userId = userId
// Do a network call to get the user
getUser().then(networkUser => {
// This works because I tried a callback here and can console.log the user
this.user = networkUser
}).catch(() => {})
}
}
And then in my component:
// React component
import { useEffect } from 'react'
import MyClass from './MyClass'
export default () => {
const myClass = new MyClass(userId)
console.log(myClass.user) // undefined here
useEffect(() => {
console.log(myClass.user) // undefined here and never called again after myClass.user is updated
}, [myClass.user])
return null
}
Again, this is greatly simplified. But the problem is that React is not re-rendering my component when the instance user object is updated from undefined to a User. This is all client side. How do I watch myClass.user in a way to trigger a re-render when it finally updates?

Let me guess you want to handle the business logic side of the app with OOP then relay the state back to functional React component to display.
You need a mechanism to notify React about the change. And the only way for React to be aware of a (view) state change is via a call to setState() somewhere.
The myth goes that React can react to props change, context change, state change. Fact is, props and context changes are just state change at a higher level.
Without further ado, I propose this solution, define a useWatch custom hook:
function useWatch(target, keys) {
const [__, updateChangeId] = useState(0)
// useMemo to prevent unnecessary calls
return useMemo(
() => {
const descriptor = keys.reduce((acc, key) => {
const internalKey = `##__${key}__`
acc[key] = {
enumerable: true,
configurable: true,
get() {
return target[internalKey]
},
set(value) {
if (target[internalKey] !== value) {
target[internalKey] = value
updateChangeId(id => id + 1) // <-- notify React about the change,
// the value's not important
}
}
}
return acc
}, {})
return Object.defineProperties(target, descriptor)
},
[target, ...keys]
)
}
Usage:
// React component
import { useEffect } from 'react'
import { useWatch } from './customHooks'
import MyClass from './MyClass'
export default () => {
const myClass = useMemo(() => new MyClass(userId), [userId])
useWatch(myClass, ['user'])
useEffect(() => {
console.log(myClass.user)
}, [myClass, myClass.user])
return null
}
Side Note
Not related to the question per se, but there're a few words I want to add about that myth I mentioned. I said:
props and context changes are just state change at a higher level
Examples:
props change:
function Mom() {
const [value, setValue] = useState(0)
setTimeout(() => setValue(v => v+1), 1000)
return <Kid value={value} />
}
function Dad() {
let value = 0
setTimeout(() => value++, 1000)
return <Kid value={value} />
}
function Kid(props) {
return `value: ${props.value}`
}
context change:
const Context = React.createContext(0)
function Mom() {
const [value, setValue] = useState(0)
setTimeout(() => setValue(v => v+1), 1000)
return (<Context.Provider value={value}>
<Kid />
</Context.Provider>)
}
function Dad() {
let value = 0
setTimeout(() => value++, 1000)
return (<Context.Provider value={value}>
<Kid />
</Context.Provider>)
}
function Kid() {
const value = React.useContext(Context)
return `value: ${value}`
}
In both examples, only <Mom /> can get <Kid /> to react to changes.

You can pass this.user as props and use props,.user in useEffeect. You could do that from the place getUser called.
A wholesome solution would be using a centralized state solution like redux or context API. Then you need to update store in getUser function and listen globalstate.user.
Conclusion
You need to pass this.user to the component one way or another. You need to choose according to the project.

Creating a React higher order component, to serve as a "loader"(animation) wrapper for child components

I have a lot of components, that require some ajax function being sent, in the componentDidMount method. I would like to create a HOC, whose sole purpose is to "apply" some animation to the component, and stop this animation once a certain promise is resolved.
Of course, i could just copy paste this code for each component, but i would like to create some abstraction that deals with it.
The problem is, that i don't know how to pass the function properly, from the child to the parent. For instance, let's assume the intended child component, has this componentDidMount:
componentDidMount() {
ajax('/costumers')
.then(({ data }) => {
this.setState(() => ({ costumers: data.content }))
})
}
Technically, i need to either pass this function as an argument to the HOC, or perhaps somehow "hijack" the child's componentDidMount(if something like that is possible...). The HOC would then apply an animation once it's loaded, then send the ajax, and only when it's solved, the animation is eliminated, and the child component gets rendered.
How can this be achieved?
Any idea will be appreciated

Here is how you can write a HOC for such a case, refer to React docs for more info on the subject.
const withLoader = (loader, Component) =>
class WithLoader extends React.Component {
state = { ready: false, data: null };
async componentDidMount() {
const data = await loader();
this.setState({ ready: true, data });
}
render() {
if (!this.state.ready) return <div>LOADING</div>; // or <ComponentWithAnimation />
return <Component data={this.state.data} />;
}
};
const Test = props => <div>DATA: {props.data}</div>;
const fakeLoader = () =>
new Promise(res => setTimeout(() => res("My data"), 1000));
const TestWithLoader = withLoader(fakeLoader, Test);

Is there a way to check if the react component is unmounted?

I have a usecase where i need to unmount my react component. But in some cases, the particular react component is unmounted by a different function.
Hence, I need to check if the component is mounted before unmounting it.

Since isMounted() is being officially deprecated, you can do this in your component:
componentDidMount() {
this._ismounted = true;
}
componentWillUnmount() {
this._ismounted = false;
}
This pattern of maintaining your own state variable is detailed in the ReactJS documentation: isMounted is an Antipattern.

I'll be recommended you to use the useRef hook for keeping track of component is mounted or not because whenever you update the state then react will re-render the whole component and also it will trigger the execution of useEffect or other hooks.
function MyComponent(props: Props) {
const isMounted = useRef(false)
useEffect(() => {
isMounted.current = true;
return () => { isMounted.current = false }
}, []);
return (...);
}
export default MyComponent;
and you check if the component is mounted with if (isMounted.current) ...

I think that Shubham answer is a workaround suggested by react for people that need to transition their code to stop using the isMounted anti-pattern.
This is not necessarily bad, but It's worth listing the real solutions to this problem.
The article linked by Shubham offers 2 suggestions to avoid this anti pattern. The one you need depends on why you are calling setState when the component is unmounted.
if you are using a Flux store in your component, you must unsubscribe in componentWillUnmount
class MyComponent extends React.Component {
componentDidMount() {
mydatastore.subscribe(this);
}
render() {
...
}
componentWillUnmount() {
mydatastore.unsubscribe(this);
}
}
If you use ES6 promises, you may need to wrap your promise in order to make it cancelable.
const cancelablePromise = makeCancelable(
new Promise(r => component.setState({...}}))
);
cancelablePromise
.promise
.then(() => console.log('resolved'))
.catch((reason) => console.log('isCanceled', reason.isCanceled));
cancelablePromise.cancel(); // Cancel the promise
Read more about makeCancelable in the linked article.
In conclusion, do not try to patch this issue by setting variables and checking if the component is mounted, go to the root of the problem. Please comment with other common cases if you can come up with any.

Another solution would be using Refs . If you are using React 16.3+, make a ref to your top level item in the render function.
Then simply check if ref.current is null or not.
Example:
class MyClass extends React.Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props);
this.elementRef = React.createRef();
}
checkIfMounted() {
return this.elementRef.current != null;
}
render() {
return (
<div ref={this.elementRef} />
);
}
}

Using #DerekSoike answer, however in my case using useState to control the mounted state didn't work since the state resurrected when it didn't have to
What worked for me was using a single variable
myFunct was called in a setTimeout, and my guess is that when the same component initialized the hook in another page it resurrected the state causing the memory leak to appear again
So this didn't work for me
const [isMounted, setIsMounted] = useState(false)
useEffect(() => {
setIsMounted(true)
return () => setIsMounted(false)
}, [])
const myFunct = () => {
console.log(isMounted) // not always false
if (!isMounted) return
// change a state
}
And this did work for me
let stillMounted = { value: false }
useEffect(() => {
stillMounted.value = true
return () => (stillMounted.value = false)
}, [])
const myFunct = () => {
if (!stillMounted.value) return
// change a state
}

I got here because I was looking for a way to stop polling the API.
The react docs does cover the websocket case, but not the polling one.
The way I worked around it
// React component
React.createClass({
poll () {
if (this.unmounted) {
return
}
// otherwise, call the api
}
componentWillUnmount () {
this.unmounted = true
}
})
it works. Hope it helps
Please, let me know if you guys know any failing test case for this =]

If you're using hooks:
function MyComponent(props: Props) {
const [isMounted, setIsMounted] = useState<boolean>(false);
useEffect(() => {
setIsMounted(true);
}, []);
useEffect(() => {
return () => {
setIsMounted(false);
}
}, []);
return (...);
}
export default MyComponent;

The same idea but enother implementation
/**
* component with async action within
*
* #public
*/
class MyComponent extends Component {
constructor ( ...args ) {
// do not forget about super =)
super(...args);
// NOTE correct store "setState"
let originSetState = this.setState.bind(this);
// NOTE override
this.setState = ( ...args ) => !this.isUnmounted&&originSetState(...args);
}
/**
* no necessary setup flag on component mount
* #public
*/
componentWillUnmount() {
// NOTE setup flag
this.isUnmounted = true;
}
/**
*
* #public
*/
myCustomAsyncAction () {
// ... code
this.setState({any: 'data'}); // do not care about component status
// ... code
}
render () { /* ... */ }
}

I have solve with hot reload and react to different it events ✅
const {checkIsMounted} = useIsMounted(); //hook from above
useEffect(() => {
//here run code
return () => {
//hot reload fix
setTimeout(() => {
if (!checkIsMounted()) {
//here we do unmount action
}
}, 100);
};
}, []);

Pproblem
There is a problem when using the useState() hook. If you are also trying to do something else in a useEffect function (like fetching some data when the component is mounted) at the same time with setting the new value for the hook,
const [isMounted, setIsMounted] = useState(false)
useEffect(() =>
{
setIsMounted(true) //should be true
const value = await fetch(...)
if (isMounted) //false still
{
setValue(value)
}
return () =>
{
setIsMounted(false)
}
}, [])
the value of the hook will remain the same as the initial value (false), even if you have changed it in the beggining. It will remain unchanged for that first render, a new re-render being required for the new value to be applied.
For some reason #GWorking solution did not work too. The gap appears to happen while fetching, so when data arrives the component is already unmounted.
Solution
You can just combine both and and check if the component is unmounted during any re-render and just use a separate variable that will keep track to see if the component is still mounted during that render time period
const [isMounted, setIsMounted] = useState(false)
let stillMounted = { value: false }
useEffect(() =>
{
setIsMounted(true)
stillMounted.value = true
const value = await fetch(...)
if (isMounted || stillMounted.value) //isMounted or stillMounted
{
setValue(value)
}
return () =>
{
(stillMounted.value = false)
setIsMounted(false)
}
}, [isMounted]) //you need to also include Mounted values
Hope that helps someone!

There's a simple way to avoid warning
Can't perform a React state update on an unmounted component. This is a no-op, but it indicates a memory leak in your application. To fix, cancel all subscriptions and asynchronous tasks in the componentWillUnmount method.
You can redefine setState method inside your class component using this pattern:
componentWillUnmount() {
this._unmounted = true;
}
setState(params, callback) {
this._unmounted || super.setState(params, callback);
}

i found that the component will be unmounted, generate fill this var
if(!this._calledComponentWillUnmount)this.setState({vars});

You can use:
myComponent.updater.isMounted(myComponent)
"myComponent" is instance of your react component.
this will return 'true' if component is mounted and 'false' if its not..
This is not supported way to do it. you better unsubscribe any async/events
on componentWillUnmount.
