how can I use UseContext to make this const '' data '' accessible throughout my project? I'm trying to implement but I can't. It doesn't have to be with UseContext, it was just a way that I researched
import api from '../../services/api';
import React, {useContext} from 'react';
export default async function getItems() {
try {
const data = await api.get("/list-results");
return data;
} catch (error) {
return error
}
}
First, create yourself a context:
const MyContext = React.createContext(defaultValue);
Then call your getItems() and store the result in a state and pass it to your context provider:
const [storedData, setStoredData] = useState<MyData | null>(null);
useEffect(() => {
getItems().then((data) => setStoredData(data));
}, []);
if (!storedData) return <div>Loading</div>;
return <MyContext.Provider value={}><MyApp/> </MyContext.Provider>;
Ideally do some more error handling in there.
And finally, get your context using useContext in a component somewhere in MyApp:
const data = useContext(MyContext);
Code is untested and should be seen as pseudo-code.
