Function useQuestTypeCategories

Returns UseQuestTypeCategoriesReturn

The returning object contains:

• categories: An array of string objects representing the fetched quest type categories.
• fetched: Boolean indicating whether the quest type has been successfully fetched.
• refresh: FetchQuestTypeCategoriesMethod - Function to refetch the quest type categories.

Implementation Details

• Caching: getQuestTypeCategories responses are cached for 5 minutes (300,000 ms) using withCache. Cache is cleared when refresh is triggered.
• Effect Trigger: The useEffect hook triggers fetchQuestTypeCategories whenever params change, ensuring the category list is up to date.
• Error Handling: Errors during fetching are logged to the console and re-thrown with additional context.
• Fetch Logic:
  • fetchQuestTypeCategories: Fetches categories based on params, with options for a quiet mode and cache bypass (refresh).

import { useQuestTypeCategories } from 'react-playmakers';

const CategoriesComponent = () => {
  const { categories, fetched, refresh } = useQuestTypeCategories({ type: 'adventure' });

  useEffect(() => {
    if (fetched) {
      console.log("Quest type categories fetched:", categories);
    }
  }, [fetched]);

  return (
    <div>
      {fetched ? (
        <ul>
          {categories.map((category) => (
            <li key={category}>{category}</li>
          ))}
        </ul>
      ) : (
        <p>Loading quest type categories...</p>
      )}
      <button onClick={() => refresh(true)}>Refresh</button>
