when i use fetch to bring the list of notes and consol.log it nothing shows up. The url is not wrong i have carefully checked it. Here is the code:
import React, { useState, useEffect } from 'react'
const NotesListPage = () => {
let [notes, setNotes] = useState([])
useEffect(() => {
}, [])
let getNotes = async () => {
let response = await fetch('http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/notes/')
let data = await response.json()
console.log(data)
setNotes(data)
}
return (
<div>
</div>
)
}
export default NotesListPage
here is the api part:
@api_view(['GET'])
def getNotes(request):
notes = Note.objects.all()
serializer = NoteSerializer(notes, many=True)
return Response(serializer.data)
You are not calling your function 'getNotes'
The way I would do it, it to fetch your data in the Effect hook and set it in your state hook there.
import React, { useState, useEffect } from 'react'
const NotesListPage = () => {
let [notes, setNotes] = useState([])
useEffect( async () => {
const response = await fetch('http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/notes/')
.then(response => response.json())
setNotes(response)
}, [])
console.log(notes)
return (
<div>
</div>
)
}
export default NotesListPage
*Edit
Cleaner would be to have the fetch in a seperate function doing the same thing and just calling that function in your effect hook (see other answer above*)
import React, { useState, useEffect } from 'react'
const NotesListPage = () => {
let [notes, setNotes] = useState([])
useEffect(() => {
getNotes();
}, [])
let getNotes = async () => {
let response = await fetch('http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/notes/')
let data = await response.json()
console.log(data)
setNotes(data)
}
return (
<div>
</div>
)
}
export default NotesListPage
