VistasCannot update a component while rendering a different component warning
I am getting this warning in react:
index.js:1 Warning: Cannot update a component (`ConnectFunction`)
while rendering a different component (`Register`). To locate the
bad setState() call inside `Register`
I went to the locations indicated in the stack trace and removed all setstates but the warning still persists. Is it possible this could occur from redux dispatch?
my code:
register.js
class Register extends Component {
render() {
if( this.props.registerStatus === SUCCESS) {
// Reset register status to allow return to register page
this.props.dispatch( resetRegisterStatus()) # THIS IS THE LINE THAT CAUSES THE ERROR ACCORDING TO THE STACK TRACE
return <Redirect push to = {HOME}/>
}
return (
<div style = {{paddingTop: "180px", background: 'radial-gradient(circle, rgba(106,103,103,1) 0%, rgba(36,36,36,1) 100%)', height: "100vh"}}>
<RegistrationForm/>
</div>
);
}
}
function mapStateToProps( state ) {
return {
registerStatus: state.userReducer.registerStatus
}
}
export default connect ( mapStateToProps ) ( Register );
function which triggers the warning in my registerForm component called by register.js
handleSubmit = async () => {
if( this.isValidForm() ) {
const details = {
"username": this.state.username,
"password": this.state.password,
"email": this.state.email,
"clearance": this.state.clearance
}
await this.props.dispatch( register(details) )
if( this.props.registerStatus !== SUCCESS && this.mounted ) {
this.setState( {errorMsg: this.props.registerError})
this.handleShowError()
}
}
else {
if( this.mounted ) {
this.setState( {errorMsg: "Error - registration credentials are invalid!"} )
this.handleShowError()
}
}
}

This warning was introduced since React V16.3.0.
If you are using functional components you could wrap the setState call into useEffect.
Code that does not work:
const HomePage = (props) => {
props.setAuthenticated(true);
const handleChange = (e) => {
props.setSearchTerm(e.target.value.toLowerCase());
};
return (
<div key={props.restInfo.storeId} className="container-fluid">
<ProductList searchResults={props.searchResults} />
</div>
);
};
Now you can change it to:
const HomePage = (props) => {
// trigger on component mount
useEffect(() => {
props.setAuthenticated(true);
}, []);
const handleChange = (e) => {
props.setSearchTerm(e.target.value.toLowerCase());
};
return (
<div key={props.restInfo.storeId} className="container-fluid">
<ProductList searchResults={props.searchResults} />
</div>
);
};

Just coming here because I just had this issue and it took me a bit of digging around before I realised what I'd done wrong - I just wasn't paying attention to how I was writing my functional component.
Figured I'd leave an answer here in case anyone comes looking, and they made the same simple mistake that I did.
I was doing this:
const LiveMatches = (props: LiveMatchesProps) => {
const {
dateMatches,
draftingConfig,
sportId,
getDateMatches,
} = props;
if (!dateMatches) {
const date = new Date();
getDateMatches({ sportId, date });
};
return (<div>{component stuff here..}</div>);
};
I had just forgotten to use useEffect before dispatching my redux call of getDateMatches()
So stupid and something I had been doing in every other component, haha.
So it should have been:
const LiveMatches = (props: LiveMatchesProps) => {
const {
dateMatches,
draftingConfig,
sportId,
getDateMatches,
} = props;
useEffect(() => {
if (!dateMatches) {
const date = new Date();
getDateMatches({ sportId, date });
}
}, [dateMatches, getDateMatches, sportId]);
return (<div>{component stuff here..}</div>);
};
Simple and silly mistake, but took a while to realise it, so hopefully this helps out someone else with this issue.

I fixed this issue by removing the dispatch from the register components render method to the componentwillunmount method. This is because I wanted this logic to occur right before redirecting to the login page. In general it's best practice to put all your logic outside the render method so my code was just poorly written before. Hope this helps anyone else in future :)
My refactored register component:
class Register extends Component {
componentWillUnmount() {
// Reset register status to allow return to register page
if ( this.props.registerStatus !== "" ) this.props.dispatch( resetRegisterStatus() )
}
render() {
if( this.props.registerStatus === SUCCESS ) {
return <Redirect push to = {LOGIN}/>
}
return (
<div style = {{paddingTop: "180px", background: 'radial-gradient(circle, rgba(106,103,103,1) 0%, rgba(36,36,36,1) 100%)', height: "100vh"}}>
<RegistrationForm/>
</div>
);
}
}
