React - 使用反应钩子，在 useEffect 中设置一个数组 state 并观察它导致无限循环？

Question

Declare an custom hook:

const useTest = (init: any) => {
  const [arr, setArr] = useState<any[]>([]);
  useEffect(() => {
    setArr(Array.from(init.arr));
  }, [init]);
  return arr;
};

Use it:

useTest({ arr: [1] })

No matter what object or array did I pass to the init.arr, it would cause a infinite loop. I tried to wrap the init object by useMemo, it`s useless. But if i pass a (string | number | null | undefined), it won`t get error.

I test it use '@testing-library/react-hooks' with jest. What`s more it only occur in my test case, but runs well in browser.

So what cause that?

Answer 1

you need to pass }, []); as shown below to load useffect only once when component is loaded. it also should remove any infinite loop problems

React.useEffect(() => {
   setArr(Array.from(init.arr));
 }, []);
