I have a react native app with expo-client and gives a too-many re-renders error I will post the files, notice that I use react-native-paper.
This is App.js which is a wrapper for app
import React from "react";
import { Provider as PaperProvider, DefaultTheme } from "react-native-paper";
import { StatusBar } from "expo-status-bar";
import Homescreen from "./views/screens/homescreen";
//import { SafeAreaView, Text } from "react-native";
export default function App() {
return (
<PaperProvider theme={theme}>
<Homescreen />
<StatusBar />
</PaperProvider>
);
}
const theme = {
...DefaultTheme,
};
This is the homescreen which is a wrapper for login and sign up components
import React from "react";
import { View } from "react-native";
import { NavigationContainer } from "@react-navigation/native";
import { createStackNavigator } from "@react-navigation/stack";
import SignUp from "../components/signup";
import Login from "../components/login";
import { Button } from "react-native-paper";
export default function Homescreen({ navigation }) {
const Stack = createStackNavigator();
return (
<View>
<Button onPress={() => navigation.navigate("SignUp")}>SignUp</Button>
<Button onPress={() => navigation.navigate("LogIn")}>Login</Button>
<NavigationContainer>
<Stack.Navigator>
<Stack.Screen name="SignUp" component={SignUp} />
<Stack.Screen name="LogIn" component={Login} />
</Stack.Navigator>
</NavigationContainer>
</View>
);
}
There are sign up and login components which are very identical
import React, { useState } from "react";
import { View } from "react-native";
import { TextInput, Button } from "react-native-paper";
export default function SignUp() {
const [email, setEmail] = useState("");
const [password, setPassword] = useState("");
const signUp = (t1, t2) => {
setEmail("");
setPassword("");
};
const changeEmailHandler = (e) => {
setEmail(e.target.value);
};
const changePasswordHandler = (e) => {
setPassword(e.target.value);
};
return (
<View>
<TextInput
mode="outlined"
left
label="email"
placeholder="Enter your email: "
onChangeText={changeEmailHandler}
value={email}
/>
<TextInput
mode="outlined"
left
label="password"
placeholder="Enter your password: "
onChangeText={changePasswordHandler}
value={password}
type="password"
/>
<Button
icon="arrow-right-alt"
mode="contained"
onClick={signUp(email, password)}
>
Join us now
</Button>
</View>
);
}
import React, { useState } from "react";
import { View } from "react-native";
import { TextInput, Button } from "react-native-paper";
export default function Login() {
const [email, setEmail] = useState("");
const [password, setPassword] = useState("");
const logIn = (t1, t2) => {
setEmail("");
setPassword("");
};
const changeEmailHandler = (e) => {
setEmail(e.target.value);
};
const changePasswordHandler = (e) => {
setPassword(e.target.value);
};
return (
<View>
<TextInput
mode={outlined}
left
label="email"
placeholder="Enter your email: "
onChangeText={changeEmailHandler}
value={email}
/>
<TextInput
mode={outlined}
left
label="password"
placeholder="Enter your password: "
onChangeText={changePasswordHandler}
value={password}
type="password"
/>
<Button
icon="arrow-right-alt"
mode="contained"
onClick={logIn(email, password)}
></Button>
</View>
);
}
This is the appbar component
import React from "react";
import { View } from "react-native";
import { Appbar } from "react-native-paper";
export default function CustomAppBar() {
return (
<View>
<Appbar>
<Appbar.Header>
<Appbar.Content title="Date Planner" />
</Appbar.Header>
</Appbar>
</View>
);
}
The
onClick
event in the<Button>
is the problem. It callssignUp(email, password)
on every render which causes an infinite loop because inside there is a call forsetPassword
. Instead inonClick
you can pass a callback, see my suggestion below.You need to modify your button as:
In this way the
signUp
function will be called only on click event.Based on the comment also needs to change
onClick={logIn(email, password)}
as well similarly as suggested above.
