useAuthUser works only for the first execution in react native about react-query-firebase

[fassone]

i have similar issues with react in production. To get the user, i stick to reactQuery

import { useQuery } from "react-query";
const authUser = useQuery(["authUser"], () => auth)

Also seemed to have issues with useAuthUser in production. I'm currently using a simple hook with unsubscribe functionality. Seems to be working nicely 🙂

import { User } from 'firebase/auth'
import { useEffect, useState } from 'react'

import { auth } from '../services/firebase'

export const useAuthUser = () => {
  const [authUser, setAuthUser] = useState<User | null>(null)

  useEffect(() => {
    const unsubscribe = auth.onAuthStateChanged(authUser => {
      setAuthUser(authUser)
    })

    return () => {
      unsubscribe()
    }
  }, [])

  return authUser
}
