I'm stuck on having my child component: ChildButton
call its parent component: ParentTable
's function that contains a "setState", to then refresh or update the table itself (in the parent).
I am passing a getData
function from the parent to the child through props. On button click in the child - call a function to; close a dialog, do a PUT on a mock api datastore, then call the getData
function. The getData function does a GET from the api and does a setState on "apiData". Problem is the data is not updating in the parent table even though the getData function is being called.. Don't state changes cause a reload? Code below:
ParentTable.jsx
export default function ParentTable() {
**const [apiData, setAPIData] = useState([]);**
const getData = () => {
axios.get(`https://blah.mockapi.io/fakeData`)
.then((getData) => {
**setAPIData**(getData.data);
})
console.log('getData'); // fires on child button click
}
return (
<Table..
<Table.Body>
{**apiData**.map((obj) => {
<Table.Cell>bunch of data from the obj..
<Table.Cell><ChildButton **getData={getData}**</Table.Cell>
... />../>../>
)
}
export default ParentTable;
ChildButton.jsx
const ChildButton = ({getData, ...}) => {
function handleClose() {
setOpen(false)
axios.put(`https://blah.mockapi.io/fakeData/${id}`, {
...
})
**getData()**
}
return (
<Button onClick={handleClose} ...>
Update
</Button>
)
}
export default ChildButton;
Long story short - why is my change of state in the Parent Component not updating it's table data?
CodePudding user response:
Axios.put returns a promise and you are not waiting for the response. Invoke the getData function inside the .then function or use async await:
axios.put(`https://blah.mockapi.io/fakeData/${id}`, {
...
}).then(() => **getData()**)
