How do I fix "Expected to return a value at the end of arrow function" warning?

Everything works fine, but I have this warning Expected to return a value at the end of arrow function array-callback-return. I tried using forEach instead of map, but then <CommentItem /> doesn't even show. How do I fix this?

  return this.props.comments.map((comment) => {
  
      if (comment.hasComments === true) {
      
        return (
          <div key={comment.id}>
          
            <CommentItem className="MainComment"/>

              {this.props.comments.map(commentReply => {
              
                if (commentReply.replyTo === comment.id) { 
                  return (
                    <CommentItem className="SubComment"/>
                 ) // return
                } // if-statement
              }) // map-function
              } // map-function __begin
            
          </div> // comment.id
          
        ) // return

A map() creates an array, so a return is expected for all code paths (if/elses).

If you don't want an array or to return data, use forEach instead.

The warning indicates that you're not returning something at the end of your map arrow function in every case.

A better approach to what you're trying to accomplish is first using a .filter and then a .map, like this:

this.props.comments
  .filter(commentReply => commentReply.replyTo === comment.id)
  .map((commentReply, idx) => <CommentItem key={idx} className="SubComment"/>);
