When trying to use setState to update a customer age, the object is mutated before setState, but setState doesn't update the existing object.
customerOnChange(event, field) {
//Customer age right now is 80
var customer = { ...this.state.customer };
customer.age = "14";
console.log('The age of the customer is ', customer.age) //This shows up correctly
this.setState({
customer
},
() => {
console.log(this.state.customer.age) //Customer age still 80
});
}
Ignore the object type being a String(I had to generalize the code before posting), property types match up correctly, but setState doesn't seem to be updating the customer
object.
I've also tried something like
this.setState({customer: newCustomer})
with no luck.
I'm guessing you haven't bound this
to your customerOnChange(event, field)
event. Try writing it as customerOnChange = (event, field) => {
. See the snippet below.
As an alternative, you can bind this
in the constructor, if you have one. Like so:
constructor(props){
super(props);
this.state={
customer: { age: 80 }
}
this.customerOnChange = this.customerOnChange.bind(this);
}
class Thingy extends React.Component { state = { customer: { age: "80" } } customerOnChange = (event, field) => { //Customer age right now is 80 const customer = { ...this.state.customer}; customer.age = event.target.value; console.log('The age of the customer is ', customer.age) //This shows up correctly this.setState({ customer }, () => { console.log(this.state.customer.age) //Customer age still 80 }); } render() { const {age} = this.state.customer; return ( <div > <input type="number" value={age} onChange={this.customerOnChange} /> <p>Customers Age:{age}</p> </div> ); } } // Render it ReactDOM.render( < Thingy title = "I'm the thingy" / > , document.body );
