I have a TextInput in my code that doesn't clear itself after submit and i have no idea on why it does that or how to solve it. I've looked at other posts that has this kinda issue? but none works or i don't really know where to place the code to make it clear itself after submiting.
Code
import React, { useState } from 'react';
import {
StyleSheet,
Text,
View,
TextInput,
Button,
} from 'react-native';
export default function AddList({ submitHandler }) {
const [text, setText] = useState('');
const changeHandler = (val) => {
setText(val);
}
return(
<View style={styles.container}>
<View style={styles.wrapper}>
<TextInput
style={styles.input}
placeholder='text'
onChangeText={changeHandler}
/>
<Button onPress={() => submitHandler(text)} title='ADD' color='#333' />
</View>
</View>
);
}
Simply create a new function after useState as below:
const onSubmit = useCallback(() => {
if (submitHandler) submitHandler(text)
setText("")
}, [text])
and modify textinput and button as below:
<TextInput
style={styles.input}
placeholder='What Tododay?'
onChangeText={changeHandler}
value={text}
/>
<Button
onPress={onSubmit}
title='ADD TO LIST'
color='#333'
/>
Do not forget to import useCallback from react.
I hope it help you.
