How to send data from dialog back to parent container with react?

Question

I have a react-big-calendar (The parent container), I have also a select which, the events of the calendar are fetched according to this select ( doctor name ) and I have a button when I click on it, the dialog will be appears (another component), on this dialog, I have a form to add an event after the select, when I post my API, I save it on local storage, but the event added doesn't appears on my calendar just after refresh the page and reselect the doctor name. But I want, when I click on the save button, will be added directly on the calendar and it will be appeared on the calendar.

My code of calendar is :

   import Popup from './Popup';
export default class Calendar extends Component {
constructor(props){
    super(props);
    this.state = {
      events : [],
      open: false,
}}
componentDidMount = () => {
    fetch(process.env.REACT_APP_API_BACKEND_YET+'get_liste_praticien.php')
      .then(Response => Response.json())
      .then(data => {
        this.setState ({ praticiens : data })
        localStorage.setItem('Liste de praticiens ', JSON.stringify(this.state.praticiens))
    })
}
fetchData = (nom,identifiant_user) => {
    this.setState({
      events: [],
      evtStorage:[],
      prevEvents:[], 
      evtBackend:[]
    })
      fetch(process.env.REACT_APP_API_BACKEND+'get_liste_planning')
        .then(Response => Response.json())
        .then(data => {
          let evts = data.ListeResult;
          for (let i = 0; i < evts.length; i++) {
            evts[i].start = moment(evts[i].start).toDate();
            evts[i].end = moment(evts[i].end).toDate();
           if(evts[i].typeplanning === '0') this.setState({isConges:true})
            this.state.events.push(evts[i])
          }                   
          this.setState({
            evtBackend: evts,
            events:  evts
          })
          localStorage.setItem("Liste de planning de " + nom, JSON.stringify(this.state.events));
        }) 
        const evtCached1 = JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('Liste récente de planning de ' + nom));
        if(evtCached1 !== null) {
          for (let j = 0; j < evtCached1.length; j++) {
            evtCached1[j].start = moment(evtCached1[j].start).toDate();
            evtCached1[j].end = moment(evtCached1[j].end).toDate();
            if(evtCached1[j].typeplanning === '0') this.setState({isConges:true})
            this.state.events.push(evtCached1[j]);
          } 
          this.setState({
            events:this.state.events,
          });
          localStorage.removeItem("Liste de planning de " + nom);
        }}
// For the select
handlePraticienChange = id_user => {
    this.setState({ 
      openPopupAjout: true,
      id_user: id_user 
    },() => {
      this.state.praticiens.map((praticien)=> {
          if(this.state.id_user === praticien.id_user){
            this.setState ({ nom_user: praticien.nom_user})
           this.fetchData(praticien.nom_user, praticien.identifiant_user);
          }
      })
      }
    );
  }
// for the popup
 ModalAjoutb = (ref) => {
    if (ref) {
      this.ajoutb = ref.handleAjouterb;
    } else {
      this.ajoutb = null;
    }
  }
render() {

    return (
<div>
    <button className="bp3-button bp3-icon-add-to-artifact .bp3-fill" tabIndex="0" onClick={() => this.ajoutb(this.state.id_user, this.state.events)}>Add event</button>

I want to refresh the list of my events and appear my event added on the calendar afer post form on the popup and not after the refresh of the page and I will reselect the doctor.

How can I fix it ?

Answer 1

I think, you can achieve it using code like this:

export default ComponentA extends Component {
  // set localStorage to bar state value
  // via click or whatever ...
    foo () {
    this.setState({
      bar: localStorage.getItem('bar')
    })
  }

  render () {
    // send the value of state to ComponentB
    return <ComponentB foo={this.state.bar}>
  }
}

Into your component

export default class ComponentB extends Component {
    render () {
    // display the value of foo prop
    return <div>{this.props.foo}</div>
  }
}

Note: You can always try to get the content of your localStoragedirectly from the ComponentB(Maybe using ComponentDidUpdate???) but the way I show you is better.

Answer 2

Don't save events in your state, in Popup access the events directly from props.

In your Calendar, create a function that'll update the state.

updateEvents = (events, callback = () => {}) => {
  this.setState(
    {
      events
    },
    callback
  );
};

<Popup updateEvents={this.updateEvents} ref={this.ModalAjoutb} id_user={this.state.id_user} events={this.state.events} />

Popup

export default class Popup extends Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);
  }

  handleAjouterb = id_user => {
    this.setState(
      {
        openPopupAjout: true,
        id_user
      },
      () => {
        this.fetchingPopup(
          this.state.id_user,
          this.state.identifiant_user,
          this.state.nom_user
        );
      }
    );
  };
  fetchingPopup = (id_user, identifiant_user, nom_user) => {
    const praticiensCached = JSON.parse(
      localStorage.getItem('Liste de praticiens ')
    );
    for (let j = 0; j < praticiensCached.length; j++) {
      if (id_user === praticiensCached[j].id_user) {
        identifiant_user = praticiensCached[j].identifiant_user;
        this.setState({ nom_user: praticiensCached[j].nom_user });
      }
    }
    handleValider = event => {
      event.preventDefault();
      const praticiensCached = JSON.parse(
        localStorage.getItem('Liste de praticiens ')
      );
      for (let j = 0; j < praticiensCached.length; j++) {
        if (this.state.id_user === praticiensCached[j].id_user)
          this.state.identifiant_user = praticiensCached[j].identifiant_user;
      }

      const formData = new FormData();

      formData.append('identifiant_user', this.state.identifiant_user);
      formData.append('heuredebut', this.state.tranchesC[0].startC);
      formData.append('heurefin', this.state.tranchesC[0].endC);
      formData.append('libelleconge', this.state.libelle);
      axios({
        method: 'post',
