I make HTTP request with axios and inside it I make another HTTP request in order to add some details about items that I get. I need to setState after I push it to the 'orders' Array, but it does it before so I can't print it in the correct way. It works with SetTimeout but I want to do it in more professional way. How can I do it synchronous??
fetchOrders(){
let orders = [];
let status;
this.setState({loading:true});
http.get('/api/amazon/orders')
.then(response => {
if (response.status === 200) status = 200;
orders = response.data;
orders.map(order => {
order.SellerSKU = "";
http.get(`/api/amazon/orders/items/${order.AmazonOrderId}`)
.then(res => {
order.SellerSKU = res.data[0].SellerSKU;
})
.catch(error => {
console.log(error);
})
});
setTimeout( () => {
this.setState({orders, error: status ? false : true, loading:false})
}, 1000);
})
.catch(error => {
this.setState({loading:false, error:true});
console.error(error);
});
}
setState can take a callback function, after finishing mutate the state it will execute the callback. So you can
setState
and add your 2nd API call in the callback.Something like this:
Please note that I just edited a dirty way, may be you need to make some adjustment to make it works.
