I got an error after installing the latest version of this library.

I have the following packages:

"react-chat-elements": "^11.0.0" "react": "^17.0.2" "react-dom": "^17.0.2" "next": "^12.0.1"

Here is my functional component:

import React, { useState } from "react";
import {
    Grid,
    Button
} from "semantic-ui-react";
import { 
    ChatList,
    MessageList
} from "react-chat-elements";

const Row = Grid.Row;
const Column = Grid.Column;

import style from "styles/main.module.scss";
import "react-chat-elements/dist/main.css";

const Chat = (props) => {

    const [chatSessionArray, setChatSessionArray] = useState([
        {
            avatar: "/static/images/ic_sample.png",
            alt: "avatar",
            title: "Group 1",
            date: new Date(),
            unread: 0
        },
        {
            avatar: "/static/images/ic_sample.png",
            alt: "avatar",
            title: "Group 2",
            date: new Date(),
            unread: 0
        }
    ]);

    const [chatMessageArray, setChatMessageArray] = useState([
        {
            position: "right",
            type: "text",
            text: "sample message 1",
            date: new Date()
        }
    ]);

    const messageListReferance = React.useRef();

    return (
        <div
            className={ style.chatContainer }>
            <Grid
                divided="vertically">
                <Row
                    columns={ 2 }>

                        width={ 4 }
                        className={ style.chatSession }>
                        {
                            chatSessionArray != 0
                                ? (
                                    <ChatList
                                        dataSource={ chatSessionArray }/>
                                )
                                : ""
                            
                        }
                    </Column>

                        {
                            chatMessageArray.length != 0
                                ? (
                                    <MessageList

                                        dataSource={ chatMessageArray }/>
                                )
                                : ""
                        }
                    </Column>
                </Row>
            </Grid>
        </div>
    );

}

export default Chat;

Full stack error, in case you need:

Unhandled Runtime Error
Error: Invalid hook call. Hooks can only be called inside of the body of a function component. This could happen for one of the following reasons:
1. You might have mismatching versions of React and the renderer (such as React DOM)
2. You might be breaking the Rules of Hooks
3. You might have more than one copy of React in the same app
See https://fb.me/react-invalid-hook-call for tips about how to debug and fix this problem.

Hi @wnmolit, I checked your code. I tried your code on the clean project and I am not getting an error, working fine. You can see here

emregudur avatar Mar 09 '22 18:03 emregudur

I see. I'm not sure why is not working on my side. I installed the libraries to their latest version.

Maybe I need to reinstall the packages and try again. I'll let you know if I already solved the issue. Thanks!

Hi @wnmolit, I checked your code. I tried your code on the clean project and I am not getting an error, working fine. You can see here

Hi @emregudur ! I still received the same error above after I reinstalled all the libraries on the project.

And I noticed that when I run npm ls react-dom, there is mismatched version of react-dom from react-chat-elements library.

Do you think it is fall under warning number 1? You might have mismatching versions of React and renderer (such as React DOM)

wnmolit avatar Mar 10 '22 03:03 wnmolit

Same on my side just like @wnmolit.

vahid-neuralinc avatar Mar 10 '22 03:03 vahid-neuralinc

Same on my side just like @wnmolit.

Good relief. I thought I'm the only one receiving this error XD I tried to convert all of my class components into functional components, but still the same error. I think the problem is the version of react-dom from react-chat-elements.

wnmolit avatar Mar 10 '22 04:03 wnmolit

Hi guys, i published for [email protected]. Can you try again on react-chat-elements latest version?

emregudur avatar Mar 10 '22 12:03 emregudur

Hi @emregudur, My react dom version is 17.0.2 already. Still the same error.

Below is my code:

` import { Page } from '../../elements/page/page.element'; import { MessageList } from 'react-chat-elements'; import { createRef, useState } from 'react';

export let Chat = (props) => { // const changeRoute = useNavigate(); const messageListReferance = createRef();

let navigate = (routeName) => {
    // changeRoute(routeName);
}

return (
    <Page.PageShell>
        <div className='chatwindow'>
            <div className="widget-container">
            <MessageList
                referance={messageListReferance}
                className='message-list'
                lockable={true}
                toBottomHeight={'100%'}
                dataSource={[
                    {
                        position: 'right',
                        type: 'text',
                        text: 'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit',
                        date: new Date(),
                    }
                ]} />
            </div>
        </div>
    </Page.PageShell>
);

}; `

My package.json looks like this:

"dependencies": { "@emotion/react": "^11.7.1", "@emotion/styled": "^11.6.0", "@reduxjs/toolkit": "^1.7.1", "@testing-library/jest-dom": "^5.16.1", "@testing-library/react": "^12.1.2", "@testing-library/user-event": "^13.5.0", "emotion-rgba": "^0.0.9", "react": "^17.0.2", "react-anime": "^4.1.1", "react-chat-elements": "^11.0.1", "react-dom": "^17.0.2", "react-redux": "^7.2.6", "react-router-dom": "^6.2.1", "react-scripts": "5.0.0", "react-slide-routes": "^2.0.0", "web-vitals": "^2.1.2" },

I also have deleted npm_modules folder, and package-lock files several times.

Still same error. All of my class components are converted to functional components and the libraries are all updated to latest version (react and react-dom 17.0.2) Screen Shot 2022-03-10 at 9 11 20 PM Screen Shot 2022-03-10 at 9 18 01 PM

My codes are the same as above.

wnmolit avatar Mar 10 '22 13:03 wnmolit

same here and i just installed the package image

rubintaipi1 avatar Mar 19 '22 04:03 rubintaipi1

Looks like the culprit is packge.json in react-chat-elements:

"react-icons": "^2.2.5",

react-icons v2.2.5 requires react v 16.x.

react-icons requires an update to latest version i.e. 4.3.1 any version above 2.2.5 which requires react 17.

Ok guys, I have some good news, the issue is with the module when installed via npm, if I use yarn, I am able to install and run it, more invalid hook errors when used yarn.

what I did was:

  • npm uninstall react-chat-elements or yarn remove react-chat-elements
  • rm -rf node-modules/
  • rm package-lock.json
  • rm yarn.lock (if u have yarn.lock)
  • npm cache clean --force
  • yarn cache clean --force
  • yarn add [email protected]
  • yarn install
  • edited package.json and replaced

"start": "react-scripts start",

with

"start": "GENERATE_SOURCEMAP=false react-scripts start",

PS: THOUGH THIS SHOULD NOT BE NEEDED, BUT THAT IS HOW MY CURRENT PACKAGE.JSON LOOKS LIKE

  • yarn start

vahid-neuralinc avatar Mar 21 '22 03:03 vahid-neuralinc

I'm getting the same issue (Invalid hook call). I tried cloning the repo and updating react-icons myself, but then I had some issues with the react-progress-bar.js dependency (which looks like it hasn't been updated in years).

Has anyone been able to solve this, except for using yarn?

NathanC avatar Mar 29 '22 03:03 NathanC

@NathanC You should try yarn instead of npm. Please refer to the steps above, in my previous comment.

vahid-neuralinc avatar Mar 29 '22 06:03 vahid-neuralinc

Hi, we works on typescript-migration branch. And also we trying migrate to typescript this project. On this branch updated all dependencies for lastest react version. I believe to these works fix to this issue too.

emregudur avatar Mar 29 '22 09:03 emregudur

Is there any way to get this to work via npm? Tried various versions and getting the same error as others have noted. Haven't tried yarn yet.

EDIT: I have tried the solution posted by @vahid-neuralinc and it seems like it does work now (thank you so much by the way). I have tested MessageList component by using the readme.md example
