I have App
, that is the parent component and I have the Child
component:
The Child
component gets a props called items
so it can be reused depending on the data. It the example there is data
, data1
and data2
.
The thing is that I want to set a cookie from the parent component, to set the cookie I need the property link
from data2
, but I am already mapping data2
in the Child component
.
What can I do to obtain the value of the property link
in the parent component to pass it as an arguement here:
<Child
onClick={() =>
handleUpdate('How can I obtain here the string from link of data2?')
}
items={data2}
/>
This is the whole example code:
import * as React from 'react';
import './style.css';
const data = [
{ title: 'hey', description: 'description' },
{ title: 'hey1', description: 'description' },
{ title: 'hey2', description: 'description' },
];
const data1 = [
{ title: 'hey', description: 'description' },
{ title: 'hey1', description: 'description' },
{ title: 'hey2', description: 'description' },
];
const data2 = [
{ title: 'hey', link: 'link/hey' },
{ title: 'hey1', link: 'link/he1' },
{ title: 'hey2', link: 'link/he2' },
];
export default function App() {
const [, setCookie] = useCookie('example');
const handleUpdate = (cookie) => {
setCookie(null);
setCookie(cookie);
};
return (
<div>
<h2>App - Parent</h2>
<Child items={data} />
<Child items={data1} />
<Child
onClick={() =>
handleUpdate('How can I obtain here the string from link of data2?')
}
items={data2}
/>
</div>
);
}
export function Child({ items }) {
return (
<div>
<h2>Child</h2>
<ul>
{items.map((item) => {
return (
<>
<p>{item.title}</p>
<a href={item.link}>Go to title</a>
</>
);
})}
</ul>
</div>
);
}
Thank you!

The map
method doesn't change the array that it is called on, it just returns a new array, do the items
array doesn't get affected at all here, so you can just call it normally like so:
return (
<div>
<h2>App - Parent</h2>
<Child items={data} />
<Child items={data1} />
<Child
onClick={() =>
handleUpdate(data2[0].link)
}
items={data2}
/>
</div>
);
Also, your Child
component needs to accept the onClick
function as a prop like so:
export function Child({ items, handleClick }) {
return (
<div onClick={handleClick}>
<h2>Child</h2>
<ul>
{items.map((item) => {
return (
<>
<p>{item.title}</p>
<a href={item.link}>Go to title</a>
</>
);
})}
</ul>
</div>
);
}

If you want to get the link from the Child
component you can simply add a link
parameter in the callback:
<Child
onClick={(link) => handleUpdate(link)}
items={data2}
/>
Then from the Child
you just need to call the onClick
prop:
export function Child({ items, onClick }) { // here make sure to add the prop while destructuring
<a href={item.link} onClick={() => onClick(item.link)}>Go to title</a>
