functional component did mount code example

Example 1: how to use componentdidmount in functional component

// passing an empty array as second argument triggers the callback in useEffect
// only after the initial render thus replicating `componentDidMount` lifecycle behaviour
useEffect(() => {
  if(!props.fetched) {
 	 props.fetchRules();
  }
  console.log('mount it!');
}, []);

// componentDidUpdate
useEffect({
	your code here
}) 

// For componentDidUpdate
useEffect(() => {
  // Your code here
}, [yourDependency]);

// For componentWillUnmount
useEffect(() => {
  // componentWillUnmount
  return () => {
     // Your code here
  }
}, [yourDependency]);

Example 2: react useEffect

import React, { useEffect } from 'react';

export const App: React.FC = () => {
  
  useEffect(() => {
        
  }, [/*Here can enter some value to call again the content inside useEffect*/])
  
  return (
    <div>Use Effect!</div>
  );
}

Example 3: componentwillunmount hooks

useEffect(() => {
  window.addEventListener('mousemove', () => {});

  // returned function will be called on component unmount 
  return () => {
    window.removeEventListener('mousemove', () => {})
  }
}, [])

Example 4: useeffect on update

const isInitialMount = useRef(true);

useEffect(() => {
  if (isInitialMount.current) {
     isInitialMount.current = false;
  } else {
      // Your useEffect code here to be run on update
  }
});
