My react app uses a redux connected component to render data from backend for a project page, so I called a GET dispatch inside a React Hook useEffect to make sure data is always rendered when the project page first open, and whenever there is a change in state project
, the component will be updated accordingly using connect redux function. However, the component doesn't update after I reduce the new state using a DELETE API request, only if I dispatch another GET request then the state will be updated. So I have to call 2 dispatches, one for DELETE and one for GET to get the page updated synchronously (as you can see in handleDeleteUpdate
function), and the same thing happened when I dispatch a POST request to add an update (in handleProjectUpdate
). Only when I reload the page, the newly changed data will show up otherwise it doesn't happen synchronously, anyone knows what's wrong with the state update in my code? and how can I fix this so the page can be loaded faster with only one request?
I've changed the reducer to make sure the state is not mutated and is updated correctly. I have also tried using async function in handleDeleteUpdate to make sure the action dispatch is finished
I have tried
console.log(props.project.data.updates)
to print out the updates list after calling props.deleteUpdate but it seems the updates
list in the state have never been changed, but when I reload the page, the new updates
list is shown up
Here is the code I have for the main connected redux component, actions, and reducers file for the component
function Project(props) {
let options = {year: 'numeric', month: 'long', day: 'numeric', hour: '2-digit', minute: '2-digit'}
const {projectID} = useParams();
const history = useHistory();
console.log(props.project.data? props.project.data.updates : null);
console.log(props.project.data);
// const [updates, setUpdates] = useState(props.project.data? props.project.data.updates : null)
useEffect(() => {
props.getProject(projectID);
}, []);
// Add an update to project is handled here
const handleProjectUpdate = async (updateInfo) => {
await props.postProjectUpdate(projectID, updateInfo)
await props.getProject(projectID);
}
const handleDeleteUpdate = async (updateID) => {
await props.deleteUpdate(projectID, updateID);
await props.getProject(projectID);
console.log(props.project.data.updates);
};
return (
<div>
<Navbar selected='projects'/>
<div className = "project-info-layout">
<UpdateCard
updates = {props.project.data.updates}
handleProjectUpdate = {handleProjectUpdate}
handleDeleteUpdate = {handleDeleteUpdate}
options = {options}
/>
</div>
</div>
)
}
const mapStateToProps = state => ({
project: state.project.project,
});
export default connect(
mapStateToProps,
{getProject, postProjectUpdate, deleteUpdate}
)(Project);
ACTION
import axios from 'axios';
import { GET_PROJECT_SUCCESS,ADD_PROJECT_UPDATE_SUCCESS, DELETE_PROJECT_UPDATE_SUCCESS} from './types';
let token = localStorage.getItem("token");
const config = {
headers: {
Authorization: `Token ${token}`,
}
};
export const getProject = (slug) => dispatch => {
axios.get(`${backend}/api/projects/` + slug, config)
.then(
res => {
dispatch({
type: GET_PROJECT_SUCCESS,
payload: res.data,
});
},
).catch(err => console.log(err));
}
export const postProjectUpdate = (slug, updateData) => dispatch => {
axios.post(`${backend}/api/projects/`+slug+ `/updates`,updateData, config)
.then(
res => {
dispatch({
type: ADD_PROJECT_UPDATE_SUCCESS,
payload: res.data,
});
},
).catch(err => console.log(err));
}
export const deleteUpdate = (slug, updateID) => dispatch => {
axios.delete(`${backend}/api/projects/`+ slug + `/updates/`+ updateID, config)
.then(
res => {
dispatch({
type: DELETE_PROJECT_UPDATE_SUCCESS,
payload: updateID,
});
},
).catch(err => console.log(err));
}
Reducer
import { GET_PROJECT_SUCCESS,ADD_PROJECT_UPDATE_SUCCESS, DELETE_PROJECT_UPDATE_SUCCESS} from "../actions/types";
const initialState = {
project: {},
};
export default function ProjectReducer(state = initialState, action) {
const { type, payload } = action;
switch (type) {
case GET_PROJECT_SUCCESS:
return {
...state, // return all initial state
project: payload
};
case ADD_PROJECT_UPDATE_SUCCESS:
return {
...state,
project: {
...state.project,
updates: [...state.project.data.updates, payload.data]
}
};
case DELETE_PROJECT_UPDATE_SUCCESS:
let newUpdatesArray = [...state.project.updates]
newUpdatesArray.filter(update => update.uuid !== payload)
return {
...state,
project: {
...state.project,
members: newUpdatesArray
}
};
default:
return state;
}
}
updateCard in the Project component is showing a list of all updates
