Im making a project where I fetch an image of a recipe card from https://spoonacular.com and I want it displayed on my react.js app. For some reason I can't get the API data from displaying on the page when I run it. Please help Im really stuck
This is my Home.js:
import React, { useEffect, useState } from "react";
import axios from "axios";
import Recipe from "../components/Recipes";
const URL = `https://api.spoonacular.com/recipes/4632/card?apiKey=${APIKey}`;
function Home() {
const [food, setFood] = useState();
useEffect(() => {
if (food) {
axios
.get(URL)
.then(function (response) {
const recipeList = response.data;
setFood(recipeList);
})
.catch(function (error) {
console.warn(error);
});
}
}, [food]);
return (
<>
<main>
<Recipe recipeList={food} />
</main>
</>
);
}
export default Home;
and this is my Recipe.js
import React from "react";
function Recipe({ recipeList }) {
return (
<section className="RecipeCard">
<div
className="Recipe"
dangerouslySetInnerHTML={{ __html: recipeList }}
/>
</section>
);
}
export default Recipe;
<section className="RecipeCard">
{recipeList.map((recipe, index)=> (
<div key={index} className="Recipe">
<h2>{recipe.title}</h2>
</div>
))}
</section>
Also, for code readability try to use async-await syntax for API call.
useEffect(()=> {
const getRecipeList = async () => {
if(food){
try{
const { data } = await axios.get(URL);
setFood(data);
}catch(error){
console.log(error);
}
}
}
getRecipeList();
},[food]);
You need to output the JSON as HTML for it to display.
For example, get a specific recipe: https://api.spoonacular.com/recipes/716429/information?includeNutrition=false
and in the Recipe Component div
<div className="Recipe">
{food && <>
<div>{food.title}</div>
<img src={food.image} />
</>}
</div>
