Fetch Details

Every hook that leverages react-query behind the scenes returns an object which contains the requested information, as well as information on the request itself. This looks like:

{
fetchDetails: FetchDetailsType,
[dataIdentifier: string]: Data
}

fetchDetails encompasses the following information, fields, and functionality:

  • status: String
    • Will be:
      • loading if there's no cached data and no query attempt was finished yet.
      • error if the query attempt resulted in an error. The corresponding error property has the error received from the attempted fetch
      • success if the query has received a response with no errors and is ready to display its data. The corresponding data property on the query is the data received from the successful fetch or if the query's enabled property is set to false and has not been fetched yet data is the first initialData supplied to the query on initialization.
  • isLoading: boolean
    • A derived boolean from the status variable above, provided for convenience.
  • isSuccess: boolean
    • A derived boolean from the status variable above, provided for convenience.
  • isError: boolean
    • A derived boolean from the status variable above, provided for convenience.
  • isLoadingError: boolean
    • Will be true if the query failed while fetching for the first time.
  • isRefetchError: boolean
    • Will be true if the query failed while refetching.
  • dataUpdatedAt: number
    • The timestamp for when the query most recently returned the status as "success".
  • error: null | TError
    • Defaults to null
    • The error object for the query, if an error was thrown.
  • errorUpdatedAt: number
    • The timestamp for when the query most recently returned the status as "error".
  • isStale: boolean
    • Will be true if the data in the cache is invalidated or if the data is older than the given staleTime.
  • isPlaceholderData: boolean
    • Will be true if the data shown is the placeholder data.
  • isPreviousData: boolean
    • Will be true when keepPreviousData is set and data from the previous query is returned.
  • isFetched: boolean
    • Will be true if the query has been fetched.
  • isFetchedAfterMount: boolean
    • Will be true if the query has been fetched after the component mounted.
    • This property can be used to not show any previously cached data.
  • fetchStatus: FetchStatus
    • fetching: Is true whenever the queryFn is executing, which includes initial loading as well as background refetches.
    • paused: The query wanted to fetch, but has been paused.
    • idle: The query is not fetching.
    • see Network Mode for more information.
  • isFetching: boolean
    • A derived boolean from the fetchStatus variable above, provided for convenience.
  • isPaused: boolean
    • A derived boolean from the fetchStatus variable above, provided for convenience.
  • isRefetching: boolean
    • Is true whenever a background refetch is in-flight, which does not include initial loading
    • Is the same as isFetching && !isLoading
  • isInitialLoading: boolean
    • Is true whenever the first fetch for a query is in-flight
    • Is the same as isFetching && isLoading
  • failureCount: number
    • The failure count for the query.
    • Incremented every time the query fails.
    • Reset to 0 when the query succeeds.
  • errorUpdateCount: number
    • The sum of all errors.
  • refetch: (options: { throwOnError: boolean, cancelRefetch: boolean }) => Promise<UseQueryResult>
    • A function to manually refetch the query.
    • If the query errors, the error will only be logged. If you want an error to be thrown, pass the throwOnError: true option
    • cancelRefetch?: boolean
      • Defaults to true
        • Per default, a currently running request will be cancelled before a new request is made
      • When set to false, no refetch will be made if there is already a request running.
