# Pairing A Callback With A useState Hook
|
||||
|
||||
React's Class-based state management allowed you to update the state of your
|
||||
component with a call to `this.setState()`. The first argument represents the
|
||||
changes to the state. It also accepts a second argument; a callback that will
|
||||
be invoked after the state has been updated.
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
this.setState({ loading: true }, () => console.log("Loading..."));
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If you've transitioned to Hooks-based state management, then you may have
|
||||
noticed that the updaters generated by `useState` calls do not accept a second
|
||||
callback argument.
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to update state and fire a callback in response to it, you can pair
|
||||
`useState` with `useEffect`.
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
import React, { useState, useEffect } from "react";
|
||||
|
||||
function App() {
|
||||
const [loading, setLoading] = useState(false);
|
||||
const toggleLoading = () => setLoading(prevLoading => !prevLoading);
|
||||
useEffect(() => {
|
||||
if(loading) {
|
||||
console.log("We are loading now");
|
||||
}
|
||||
}, [loading])
|
||||
|
||||
return (
|
||||
<div>
|
||||
{loading && <p>Loading...</p>}
|
||||
<button onClick={toggleLoading}>{loading ? "Cancel" : "Save"}</button>
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
);
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The `useState` acts on its own. It has no side-effects. We follow it with a
|
||||
`useEffect` that responds to changes to the value of `loading` -- this is where
|
||||
our _callback_ gets invoked.
|
||||

||||
