Feature Search State #17

Storing the search input in a state

Instructions:

Implement the functionality to search for a customer name given the text typed into the customer name field.

In the src/Search.js file, declare a new state variable named searchInput with the corresponding setter function setSearchInput (hint: use the React function useState). The initial value of the searchInput variable can be an empty string. Add a value property to the <input> tag that is set to the new searchInput state variable.

Create a new function handleSearchInput taking an event parameter. This function should use the setSearchInput function to update the state variable searchInput with what the user typed in the input field. Finally, add a onChange prop to the <input> tag that is set to the function handleSearchInput. Use console.log() to output the value received in the handleSearchInput function.

Hint: Use event.target.value to get the input value.

Test:

• Given a searchInput
• When I type in the field
• Then the value is logged
