I have following issue while running the code, need some help as I am not able to find out what is the issue even after finding out it for last 4 days.
1st- as per my product_specs hook, it is array of two input fields namely specification field and value filed, and 1 field of each should be present from start when "http://localhost:3000/productupload" page loads, but I am not getting these two filed from the start. Note -addClick and Remove Click handler adds or remove this two input fields dynamically. Image of web page when form loads is attached below. 2nd- when I type in my sub_category field I get errror TypeError: Cannot set property 'sub_category' of undefined
My code for productupload page is
import FormInput from "../Forminput/forminput";
import CustomButton from "../Custombutton/custombutton";
import axios from "axios";
const ProductUpload = () => {
const [sub_category, setSub_category] = useState("");
const [product_name, setProduct_name] = useState("");
const [product_image, setProduct_image] = useState("");
const [product_specs, setProduct_specs] = useState([
{
specification: "",
specvalue: "",
},
]);
const imageSelectedHandler = (event) => {
setProduct_image({ product_image: event.target.files[0] });
};
// const imageUploadHandler = () => {
// const fd = new FormData();
// fd.append("product_image", product_image, product_image.name); //.name is Imp as name is property of file
// };
const handleChange = (e, i) => {
const { name, value } = e.target;
setSub_category({ ...sub_category, [name]: value });
setProduct_name({ ...product_name, [name]: value });
const p_specs = [...product_specs];
product_specs[i][name] = value;
setProduct_specs(p_specs); //This is 100% right.
};
//to add extra input field
const addClick = () => {
// setProduct_specs([...product_specs, { specification: "", specvalue: "" }]); //this is 100% right
//also 100% correct alternative to above line
const p_specs = [...product_specs];
p_specs.push({ specification: "", specvalue: "" });
setProduct_specs(p_specs);
};
//to remove extra input field
const removeClick = (i) => {
const p_specs = [...product_specs];
p_specs.splice(i, 1);
setProduct_specs(p_specs);
};
const handleSubmit = async (event) => {
event.preventDefault();
const newProduct = {
sub_category,
product_name,
product_image,
product_specs,
};
try {

const res = await axios.post("/api/product", body, config);
console.log(res.data);
} catch (error) {
