componentdidmount componentdidupdate and componentwillunmount in react hook 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: useeffect cleanup function

function App() {
  const [shouldRender, setShouldRender] = useState(true);

  useEffect(() => {
    setTimeout(() => {
      setShouldRender(false);
    }, 5000);
  }, []);

  // don't render
  if( !shouldRender ) return null;
  // JSX, if the shouldRender is true
  return <ForExample />;
}
