Links to Show Page

We want generate links to each persons show page so let's do the following in Index.js

import { useState } from "react"
import { Link } from "react-router-dom"

function Index(props) {
  // state to hold formData
  const [newForm, setNewForm] = useState({
    name: "",
    image: "",
    title: "",
  })

  // handleChange function for form
  const handleChange = event => {
    setNewForm({ ...newForm, [event.target.name]: event.target.value })
  }

  // handle submit function for form
  const handleSubmit = event => {
    event.preventDefault()
    props.createPeople(newForm)
    setNewForm({
      name: "",
      image: "",
      title: "",
    })
  }

  // loaded function
  const loaded = () => {
    return props.people.map(person => (
      <div key={person._id} className="person">
        <Link to={`/people/${person._id}`}>
          <h1>{person.name}</h1>
        </Link>
        <img src={person.image} alt={person.name} />
        <h3>{person.title}</h3>
      </div>
    ))
  }

  const loading = () => {
    return <h1>Loading...</h1>
  }
  return (
    <section>
      <form onSubmit={handleSubmit}>
        <input
          type="text"
          value={newForm.name}
          name="name"
          placeholder="name"
          onChange={handleChange}
        />
        <input
          type="text"
          value={newForm.image}
          name="image"
          placeholder="image URL"
          onChange={handleChange}
        />
        <input
          type="text"
          value={newForm.title}
          name="title"
          placeholder="title"
          onChange={handleChange}
        />
        <input type="submit" value="Create Person" />
      </form>
      {props.people ? loaded() : loading()}
    </section>
  )
}

export default Index

The Show Page

Let's pass the people data to the Show page via props and make a update and delete function for the show page, head over to Main.js

import { useEffect, useState } from "react"
import { Route, Switch } from "react-router-dom"
import Index from "../pages/Index"
import Show from "../pages/Show"

function Main(props) {
  const [people, setPeople] = useState(null)

  const URL = "http://localhost:4000/people/"

  const getPeople = async () => {
    const response = await fetch(URL)
    const data = await response.json()
    setPeople(data)
  }

  const createPeople = async person => {
    // make post request to create people
    await fetch(URL, {
      method: "post",
      headers: {
        "Content-Type": "application/json",
      },
      body: JSON.stringify(person),
    })
    // update list of people
    getPeople()
  }

  const updatePeople = async (person, id) => {
    // make put request to create people
    await fetch(URL + id, {
      method: "put",
      headers: {
        "Content-Type": "application/json",
      },
      body: JSON.stringify(person),
    })
    // update list of people
    getPeople()
  }

  const deletePeople = async id => {
    // make delete request to create people
    await fetch(URL + id, {
      method: "delete",
    })
    // update list of people
    getPeople()
  }

  useEffect(() => getPeople(), [])

  return (
    <main>
      <Switch>
        <Route exact path="/">
          <Index people={people} createPeople={createPeople} />
        </Route>
        <Route
          path="/people/:id"
          render={rp => (
            <Show
              people={people}
              updatePeople={updatePeople}
              deletePeople={deletePeople}
              {...rp}
            />
          )}
        />
      </Switch>
    </main>
  )
}

export default Main

Let's grab the selected person from the people array in props and display them.

Show.js

function Show(props) {
  const id = props.match.params.id
  const people = props.people
  const person = people.find(p => p._id === id)

  return (
    <div className="person">
      <h1>{person.name}</h1>
      <h2>{person.title}</h2>
      <img src={person.image} alt={person.name} />
    </div>
  )
}

export default Show

Updating a Person

On the show page let's add

state for a form
handleChange and handleSubmit function
a form in the JSX below the person

import { useState } from "react"
function Show(props) {
  const id = props.match.params.id
  const people = props.people
  const person = people.find(p => p._id === id)

  // state for form
  const [editForm, setEditForm] = useState(person)

  // handleChange function for form
  const handleChange = event => {
    setEditForm({ ...editForm, [event.target.name]: event.target.value })
  }

  // handlesubmit for form
  const handleSubmit = event => {
    event.preventDefault()
    props.updatePeople(editForm, person._id)
    // redirect people back to index
    props.history.push("/")
  }

  return (
    <div className="person">
      <h1>{person.name}</h1>
      <h2>{person.title}</h2>
      <img src={person.image} alt={person.name} />
      <form onSubmit={handleSubmit}>
        <input
          type="text"
          value={editForm.name}
          name="name"
          placeholder="name"
          onChange={handleChange}
        />
        <input
          type="text"
          value={editForm.image}
          name="image"
          placeholder="image URL"
          onChange={handleChange}
        />
        <input
          type="text"
          value={editForm.title}
          name="title"
          placeholder="title"
          onChange={handleChange}
        />
        <input type="submit" value="Update Person" />
      </form>
    </div>
  )
}

export default Show

Deleting a Person

Last Stop is adding a button on the show page to delete a user!

import { useState } from "react"
function Show(props) {
  const id = props.match.params.id
  const people = props.people
  const person = people.find(p => p._id === id)

  const [editForm, setEditForm] = useState(person)

  // handleChange function for form
  const handleChange = event => {
    setEditForm({ ...editForm, [event.target.name]: event.target.value })
  }

  const handleSubmit = event => {
    event.preventDefault()
    props.updatePeople(editForm)
    props.history.push("/")
  }

  const removePerson = () => {
    props.deletePeople(person._id)
    props.history.push("/")
  }

  return (
    <div className="person">
      <h1>{person.name}</h1>
      <h2>{person.title}</h2>
      <img src={person.image} alt={person.name} />
      <button id="delete" onClick={removePerson}>
        DELETE
      </button>
      <form onSubmit={handleSubmit}>
        <input
          type="text"
          value={editForm.name}
          name="name"
          placeholder="name"
          onChange={handleChange}
        />
        <input
          type="text"
          value={editForm.image}
          name="image"
          placeholder="image URL"
          onChange={handleChange}
        />
        <input
          type="text"
          value={editForm.title}
          name="title"
          placeholder="title"
          onChange={handleChange}
        />
        <input type="submit" value="Update Person" />
      </form>
    </div>
  )
}

export default Show

Deploy

add a netlify.toml with the following

[[redirects]]
  from = "/*"
  to = "/index.html"

NOTE, if you wanted to deploy to Version you'd include a vercel.json with the follow

{
  "version": 2,
  "routes": [
    { "handle": "filesystem" },
    { "src": "/.*", "dest": "/index.html" }
  ]
}

push frontend repo to github
connect to netlify
