I get data from localstorage. I used useEffect. But when I want to get a value in object, I got problem.
const [carinfo, setCarInfo] = useState();
useEffect(() => {
const storedData = JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem("carData"));
setCarInfo(storedData);
console.log(storedData.brand);
}, []);
console.log(carinfo.brand);
console.log(storedData.brand) is working.
No console.log(carinfo.brand) is not working
I have this error
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'brand')
I suspect you get the error because the effect hasn't happened yet. The first time your component renders, carinfo is undefined.
You can set an initial value to state to get around this:
const [carinfo, setCarInfo] = useState({});
Your console.log(carinfo.brand) is getting executed before the useEffect.
That means you're trying to access the value of carinfo before setting it.
Sol 1: Put the console.log(carinfo.brand) inside useEffect
Sol 2: If you need the carinfo outside useEffect, write it inside a function and call that function after setting the carinfo value
On your initial render, the value of carinfo will match what you call useState with.
useState() is the equivalent of useState(undefined). undefined is a value without a brand property.
useEffect will fire and then update the state with whatever value you have in localStorage, given that it matches your expected data structure (you may want to consider creating a safer way get to localStorage.
Nevertheless,only after the initial render is the state set, and then you may have the expected value in carinfo.
You can use optional chaining to protect yourself, console.log(carinfo?.brand) or some other way to handle the undefined case.
