Function use_state

source
pub fn use_state<'hook, T, F>(
    init_fn: F,
) -> impl 'hook + Hook<Output = UseStateHandle<T>>
where T: 'static + 'hook, F: FnOnce() -> T + 'hook,
Expand description

This hook is used to manage state in a function component.

This hook will always trigger a re-render upon receiving a new state. See use_state_eq if you want the component to only re-render when the new state compares unequal to the existing one.

§Example

use yew::prelude::*;

#[function_component(UseState)]
fn state() -> Html {
    let counter = use_state(|| 0);
    let onclick = {
        let counter = counter.clone();
        Callback::from(move |_| counter.set(*counter + 1))
    };

    html! {
        <div>
            <button {onclick}>{ "Increment value" }</button>
            <p>
                <b>{ "Current value: " }</b>
                { *counter }
            </p>
        </div>
    }
}

§Caution

The value held in the handle will reflect the value of at the time the handle is returned by the use_state() call. It is possible that the handle does not dereference to an up to date value, for example if you are moving it into a use_effect_with hook. You can register the state to the dependents so the hook can be updated when the value changes.

§Tip

The setter function is guaranteed to be the same across the entire component lifecycle. You can safely omit the UseStateHandle from the dependents of use_effect_with if you only intend to set values from within the hook.

§Note

When used in function components and hooks, this hook is equivalent to:

pub fn use_state<T, F>(init_fn: F) -> UseStateHandle<T>
where
    T: 'static,
    F: FnOnce() -> T,
{
    /* implementation omitted */
}
