[Feature Request]: react custom hook for data fetching

[prajjwalkapoor]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Currently, we are writing repetitive code for data fetching which violates the DRY principle.

Describe the solution you'd like

Make a react custom hook something like useFetch for data fetching.
Make sure you will handle the method, URL ( Fix the host and fetch it from env, just change the path ), allowCookie, payloads etc. You should use Axios for fetching.

Describe alternatives you've considered

[RISHIKESHk07]

import { useEffect, useState } from 'react';
import axios from 'axios';

const useFetch = (method, path, allowCookie = false, payload = null) => {
  const [data, setData] = useState(null);
  const [loading, setLoading] = useState(true);
  const [error, setError] = useState(null);

  useEffect(() => {
    const fetchData = async () => {
      try {
        const url = `PATH`

        const options = {
          method,
          url,
          withCredentials: allowCookie,
          data: payload,
        };

        const response = await axios(options);
        setData(response.data);
      } catch (error) {
        setError(error);
      } finally {
        setLoading(false);
      }
    };

    fetchData();
  }, [method, path, allowCookie, payload]);

  return { data, loading, error };
};

export default useFetch;
