I have a component that fetches the data properly but I want to encapsulate it in a helper. I've tried many things but I'm stuck.
This is the component that works:
export const Carousel = () => {
const [ lotteries, setLotteries ] = useState({});
const [ isLoading, setisLoading ] = useState(true);
useEffect(() => {
async function fetchAPI() {
const url = 'https://protected-sea-30988.herokuapp.com/https://www.lottoland.com/api/drawings;'
let response = await fetch(url)
response = await response.json()
setLotteries(response)
setisLoading(false)
}
fetchAPI()
}, [])
return (
<>
{
isLoading ? (
<span>loading</span>
) : (
<Slider >
{
Object.keys(lotteries).map((lottery, idx) => {
return (
<Slide
key={ idx }
title={ lottery }
prize={ lotteries[lottery].next.jackpot }
day={ lotteries[lottery].next.date.day }
/>
)
})
}
</Slider>
)}
</>
);}
And this is the last thing I've tried so far. This is the component without the fetch
export const Carousel = () => {
const [ lotteries, setLotteries ] = useState({});
const [ isLoading, setIsLoading ] = useState(true);
useEffect(() => {
getLotteries()
setLotteries(response)
setIsLoading(false)
}, [])
And this is where I tried to encapsulate the fetching.
export const getLotteries = async() => {
const url = 'https://protected-sea-30988.herokuapp.com/https://www.lottoland.com/api/drawings;'
let response = await fetch(url)
response = await response.json()
return response;
}
I'm a bit new to React, so any help would be much appreciated. Many thanks.

If you want to separate the logic for requesting a URL into another helper function, you can create a custom hook.
// customHook.js
import { useEffect, useState } from 'react';
export function useLotteries() {
const [lotteries, setLotteries] = useState(null);
useEffect(() => {
fetch('https://protected-sea-30988.herokuapp.com/https://www.lottoland.com/api/drawings;')
.then(response => response.json())
.then(json => setLotteries(json));
}, []);
return lotteries;
}
// Carousel.js
import { useLotteries } from "./customHook.js";
export const Carousel = () => {
const [lotteries] = useLotteries();
if (lotteries) {
return; /* Your JSX here! (`lotteries` is now contains all the request responses) */
} else {
return <Loader />; // Or just null if you don't want to show a loading indicator when your data hasn't been received yet.
}
};

To get the fetched data from getLotteries helper you have to return a promise
export const getLotteries = async() => {
const url = 'https://protected-sea-
30988.herokuapp.com/https://www.lottoland.com/api/drawings;'
let response = await fetch(url)
return response.json()
}
and call it as async/await
useEffect(async() => {
let response= await getLotteries()
setLotteries(response)
setIsLoading(false)
}, [])
