How to give two different function to the same button when it's located on different screen?

page 1

My FlatList looks like below.

    <FlatList
      ref={flatListRef}
      contentContainerStyle={{
        paddingBottom: 20,
      }}
      keyboardDismissMode={true}
      showsVerticalScrollIndicator={false}
      data={state}
      keyExtractor={(comment) => "" + comment.id}
      renderItem={renderComment}
    />

and rendercomment looks like below. As you can see, it goes to CommentRow screen with data.

  const renderComment = ({ item: commentsRow }) => {
    const { comments } = getValues();
    return (
      <CommentRow
        commentsRow={commentsRow}
        photoId={route?.params?.photoId}
        updatedComments={comments}
        textRef={textRef}
      />
    );
  };

And when I press confirm button, it can create the comment.

    <ConfirmButton onPress={handleSubmit(onValid)}>
      <ConfirmText>확인</ConfirmText>

page 2

If we go to CommentRow screen. if I press Edit button, i want to edit my comment.

      <TouchableOpacity onPress={onEditClick}>
        <WriteComment>수정</WriteComment>

But Problem is when I press edit button, I need to change the payload of comment with the same button which is confirm button of Comment. So when i press confirm button, it doesn't edit comment but it create comment.

If this components are in one page, then I can use useState in order to distinguish edit button from confirm button. But since they are in two screen separately, I can't send the info that this is edit button from page 2 to page 1. because flatlist only pass data from page 1 to page 2.

I've struggled with this issue for 1 week :( have you any idea for this?

You could pass a callback function from page 1 to page 2 as follows.

 const onUpdateComment = React.useCallback((newComment) => {
    // update state here for setting the new comment
 }, [whatever you need here])

 const renderComment = ({ item: commentsRow }) => {
    const { comments } = getValues();
    return (
      <CommentRow
        commentsRow={commentsRow}
        photoId={route?.params?.photoId}
        comments={comments}
        updateComments={onUpdateComment} // this has changed on page 1
        textRef={textRef}
      />
    );
  };

On page 2 you can use the passed callback function.

const onEditClick = React.useCallback(() => {
  // do the other stuff
  updateComments(newComment) // this is the callback function passed in the updateComments prop of CommentRow in page 1
}, [whatever you need here])
<TouchableOpacity onPress={onEditClick}>
