I have the following code where I am making a REST call and assigning the result to a variable.
Then I am using the result to map over and create components with props.
But at present it throws an error because the value for list is undefined.
I believe this is because the value of the list is not set yet when I am attempting to map due to axios async call not completed yet.
Thus 2 queries.
How should I use the response value. Is my method of assigning it to the variable 'list' correct or it should be done differently?
How do I wait for list to be populated and then map over it?
You can see how the response.data will look by looking at following endpoint: https://sampledata.free.beeceptor.com/data1
Sample response data:
[
{
"word": "Word of the Day",
"benevolent": "be nev o lent",
"adjective": "adjective",
"quote": "well meaning and kindly.<br/>a benevolent smile",
"learn": "LEARN MORE"
},
{
"word": "Word of the Day",
"benevolent": "be nev o lent",
"adjective": "adjective",
"quote": "well meaning and kindly.<br/>a benevolent smile",
"learn": "LEARN MORE"
}
]
Client code:
const App = () => {
// const cardData = useSelector(state => state.cardData)
let list;
useEffect(() => {
axios.get('https://sampledata.free.beeceptor.com/data1')
.then(response => {
list = response.data;
list.forEach(l => console.log(l))
})
.catch(error => {
console.log(error)
})
}, [])
return (
<>
<ButtonAppBar/>
<div className='container'>
<div className='row'>
{
list.map((data) => {
const {word, bene, adj, well, learn} = data;
return (
<div className='col-lg-3 col-md-6 format'>
<SimpleCard word={word} bene={bene} adj={adj} well={well} learn={learn} />
</div>
)
})
}
</div>
</div>
</>
);
}
export default App;
