I use it this way, but it raises error: Failed to execute 'fetch' on 'Window': The user aborted a request.
const getSignal = useAbortController();
const [data, setData] = useState();
const doFetch = async () => {
const signal = getSignal();
const response = await fetch("https://codesandbox.io", { signal });
const result = await response.body;
setData(result);
};
useEffect(() => {
doFetch()
}, []);
How to solve?
How do you manually call abort()
from this?
Here is my manually controlled abortController I use to allow users to cancel an upload in React Native
function useAbortController() {
const abortControllerRef = useRef();
const getAbortController = useCallback(() => {
console.log('getAbortController', abortControllerRef.current);
if (!abortControllerRef.current) {
abortControllerRef.current = new AbortController();
}
return abortControllerRef.current;
}, []);
const abortSignal = useCallback(() => {
if (abortControllerRef.current) {
abortControllerRef.current.abort();
abortControllerRef.current = null; // Resets it for next time
}
}, []);
const getSignal = useCallback(
() => getAbortController().signal,
[getAbortController]
);
return { getSignal, abortSignal };
}
Typescript useAbortController.ts
import React from "react"
export function useAbortController() {
const abortControllerRef = React.useRef<AbortController | undefined>()
const getAbortController = React.useCallback(() => {
abortControllerRef.current =
abortControllerRef.current && !abortControllerRef.current.signal.aborted
? abortControllerRef.current
: new AbortController()
return abortControllerRef.current
}, [])
const getSignal = React.useCallback(() => {
return getAbortController().signal
}, [getAbortController])
React.useEffect(() => {
return () => {
getAbortController().abort("Re-render")
}
}, [getAbortController])
return getSignal
}

Whoever found above gist first before Kent's own tweet, use the above hook like below. Directly copied from that tweet.
const getSignal = useAbortController()
// in an effect
fetch('/thing', {signal: getSignal()})
