Posting a Comment and Invalidating Cache
Show how to post a new comment using useMutation, and then invalidate the cache of related queries to ensure the comment list is refreshed with the latest data.
import { useMutation, useQueryClient } from 'react-query';
import axios from 'axios';
const usePostComment = () => {
const queryClient = useQueryClient();
return useMutation(comment => axios.post('/api/comments', comment), {
onSuccess: () => {
// Invalidate and refetch
queryClient.invalidateQueries('comments');
}
});
};
This code defines a custom hook usePostComment using useMutation to post a new comment. Upon a successful mutation, the onSuccess callback invalidates the cache for the 'comments' query, triggering a refetch to update the UI with the latest comments.
const { mutate } = usePostComment();
mutate({ text: 'Awesome post!', postId: 1 });
This code demonstrates how to use the usePostComment hook within a component to post a new comment. It calls the mutate function with the new comment's data.
