useRef with variables code example

Example 1: useRef

/*
	A common use case is to access a child imperatively: 
*/

function TextInputWithFocusButton() {
  const inputEl = useRef(null);
  const onButtonClick = () => {
    // `current` points to the mounted text input element
    inputEl.current.focus();
  };
  return (
    <>
      <input ref={inputEl} type="text" />
      <button onClick={onButtonClick}>Focus the input</button>
    </>
  );
}

Example 2: useRef

import React, { useState, useEffect, useRef } from 'react'
import isDeepEqual from 'fast-deep-equal/react'import { getPlayers } from '../api'
import Players from '../components/Players'

const Team = ({ team }) => {
  const [players, setPlayers] = useState([])
  const teamRef = useRef(team)
  if (!isDeepEqual(teamRef.current, team)) {    teamRef.current = team  }
  useEffect(() => {
    if (team.active) {
      getPlayers(team).then(setPlayers)
    }
  }, [teamRef.current])
  return <Players team={team} players={players} />
}
