I have 6 buttons and I wanted to change the color once pressed separately.
At first, I decided to give useState to each button like this.
const [color,setColor]=useState('#F5F5F5');
const [textColor,setTextColor]=useState('black');
const [color1,setColor1]=useState('#F5F5F5');
const [textColor1,setTextColor1]=useState('black');
const [color2,setColor2]=useState('#F5F5F5');
const [textColor2,setTextColor2]=useState('black');
const [color3,setColor3]=useState('#F5F5F5');
const [textColor3,setTextColor3]=useState('black');
const button = (
<Button style={{background:color,color:textColor}}
className={classes.paper}
onClick={()=>{setColor("purple");setTextColor('white')
}}>
asda
</Button>
)
const button1 = (
<Button style={{background:color1,color:textColor1}}
className={classes.paper}
onClick={()=>{setColor1("purple");setTextColor1('white')
}}>
asda
</Button>
);
const button2 = (
<Button style={{background:color2,color:textColor2}}
className={classes.paper}
onClick={()=>{setColor2("purple");setTextColor2('white')
}}>
asda
</Button>
);
But then I thought if there is a way to use less useState, and I decided to use one useState instead of using 12 useState in total.
I saw a lot of articles writing about updating multiple properties using one useState. But I did not see any article talking about updating the property by using an index.
First, you want to create an array of color using one useState. White is the initial color of the buttons.
const [colors, setColors] = React.useState([
"white",
"white",
"white",
"white",
"white",
"white"
]);
Then, you should create a function that has two arguments, index and value. I also had difficulties finding articles handleChange having two arguments.
You can create a new object(newColors this time) to overwrite the existing values.
const handleChange = (index, value) => {
const newColors = [...colors];
newColors[index] = value;
setColors(newColors);
};
newColors[index] = value;
This means the new colors will be passed to colors(The array we created before).
For example, colors[0] = "purple".
Finally, you pass the updated color to SetColors.
<Button
style={{ background: colors[0] }}
className={classes.paper}
onClick={() => handleChange(0, 'purple')}>
asda
</Button>
JSX will be like this. You want to specify the index of colors in style, and update the color using handleChange.
I have to tell you another thing here. I used onChange first to call handleChange and the background color didn't change. I found out that onChange doesn't work for some browsers, and you should use onClick.
It took me a week to solve this problem and hope this is helpful for you.
