react - not able to setValue for input box

I am making 2 otp input in my application.

In Input.tsx, I am using react-otp-input for the otp functionality
if

    <OtpInput
      value={"abcde"}
      ...
      numInputs={5}
    />

The UI of react-otp-input will be

Now the problem is, when I try to change the value of otp, it throws error

Cannot set properties of undefined (setting 'value')

How can I fix it?

Input.tsx

import React, { useState } from "react";
import OtpInput from "react-otp-input";

type InputPropType = {
  value: string;
  setValue: (event: string) => void;
};

function Input(props: InputPropType): JSX.Element {
  const { value, setValue } = props;
  return (
    <OtpInput
      value={value}
      onChange={(e: string) => {
        setValue(e);
      }}
      numInputs={5}
    />
  );
}

export default Input;

App.tsx

import React, { useState } from "react";

import Input from "./Input";

export default function App() {
  type InputValueType = {
    id: number;
    value: string;
  };
  const [inputValues, setInputValues] = useState<Array<InputValueType>>([
    { id: 0, value: "" },
    { id: 1, value: "" }
  ]);

  const InputGroup = () => {
    let numOfInputs: number = 2;
    var rows: Array<any> = [];
    for (var i = 0; i < numOfInputs; i++) {
      let inputValue: InputValueType = inputValues[i];
      rows.push(
        <Input
          key={inputValue.id}
          value={inputValue.value}
          setValue={(event: string) => {
            let inputValuesTemp = inputValues;
            inputValuesTemp[i]["value"] = event;
            setInputValues(inputValuesTemp);
          }}
        />
      );
    }
    return <>{rows}</>;
  };

  return (
    <div className="App">
      <InputGroup />
    </div>
  );
}

Few things to be corrected,

There is an issue with closures in your for-loop since you have used var instead of let. All the i variables refer to the same for-loop closure in the for-loop, which means i is 2 at the end of the iteration. All the inputValuesTemp[i] are now resolved to inputValuesTemp[2] which is definitely undefined.

Replace var with let to create closures for each iteration of the loop.

for (let i = 0; i < numOfInputs; i++) {...}

And, you also need o get a copy of the values array for react to do a rerender (to inform that the array has changed).

let inputValuesTemp = [...inputValues];

Your InputGroup component was within the App component, which caused you to lose focus for each keystroke. To fix the focus issue, move the InputGroup out of the App and keep it as a separate component.

import React, { useState } from "react";

import Input from "./Input";

type InputValueType = {
  id: number;
  value: string;
};

const InputGroup = () => {
  const [inputValues, setInputValues] = useState<Array<InputValueType>>([
    { id: 0, value: "" },
    { id: 1, value: "" }
  ]);

  let numOfInputs: number = 2;
  var rows: Array<any> = [];
  for (let i = 0; i < numOfInputs; i++) {
    let inputValue: InputValueType = inputValues[i];
    rows.push(
      <Input
        key={inputValue.id}
        value={inputValue.value}
        setValue={(event: string) => {
          let inputValuesTemp = [...inputValues];
          inputValuesTemp[i]["value"] = event;
          setInputValues(inputValuesTemp);
        }}
      />
    );
  }
  return <>{rows}</>;
};

export default function App() {
  return (
    <div className="App">
      <InputGroup />
    </div>
  );
}
