Updating state while a component is rendering
https://github.com/dayhaysoos/gatsby-ecommerce-site/blob/fea28a917e231914ec3c19e06d59c56b02375a68/src/pages/success.js#L6-L9
On your success page, it looks like you're performing a state update during the render of a component. In React, it will warn you when you do this with something like:
Cannot update a component (
CartProvider
) while rendering a different component (App
).
It would be better if you did use a useEffect
. The following would only run the useEffect once and would not run it during rendering.
useEffect(() => {
clearCart();
}, [clearCart]);
