How to access 'this' keyword inside of static method in react native?












0















I am not able to access 'this' keyword in my static method in react- native, when I try to access it, it's thrown me error like 'this.setState not a function'.



Here is my code.



static getShiftStatus = () =>{
//for check shift start or not
Usermodal.getShiftStatus((isStatus) =>{
this.setState({isShiftStart: isStatus}) //error occure here.
console.log(a.state.isShiftStart)
})
}

    Static methods aren't called on instances of the class, so if you just remove the static keyword it should work as expected.

  • Bind the method to the instance in the constructor?

this in the inner function points to something else.
You need to capture the this from the outside function.



static getShiftStatus = () =>{

var that = this; // capture here

Usermodal.getShiftStatus((isStatus) =>{
that.setState({isShiftStart: isStatus}) // use it here
console.log(a.state.isShiftStart)
})
}

  • But the inner function is an arrow function, so doesn't it use the this value from its containing context?
