declaring const in class component react-native

Question

I'm trying to making network error screen, in case lost network I want to show a screen with message about network issue,

before adding some extra lines of code constructor() and Check_Internet() function my code was working well. I'm accessing const store but there is a

TransformError SyntaxError: : unexpected token at line -> const store = useStore();

don't know somehow,I'm not able to figure it out whats going on there.

maybe I'm trying to add const in class thats why its appearing

App.js

import { StatusBar } from "expo-status-bar";
import { StyleSheet, Text, View } from "react-native";
import { TailwindProvider } from "tailwindcss-react-native";
import { Provider } from "react-redux";
import React, { Component } from 'react'

import Routes from "./routes";
import { useStore } from "./store";

import Lottie from 'lottie-react-native';
import NetInfo from '@react-native-community/netinfo';
import ButtonCstm from "./custom-components/Button";


export default class main extends Component {

  const store = useStore();

  constructor() {
    super();
    this.state = {
      network_status: "",
    }
    this.Check_Internet();

  }

  Check_Internet = async () => {
    await NetInfo.fetch().then(state => {
      console.log("Connection type", state.type);
      console.log("Is Connected", state.isConnected);

      if (state.isConnected == true) {
        this.setState({
          network_status: "online"
        })
      }
      else {
        this.setState({
          network_status: "offline"
        })
      }

    });
  }

  render() {
    if (this.state.network_status == "online") {
      return (
        <TailwindProvider>
          <Provider
            store={store}
          >

Convert your component from a class based component to a function based component to use hooks

Currently you can't use Hooks inside a class components Read More on the official react docs

Example:

From your code you can convert you component from class based to function based like this:

import { StatusBar } from "expo-status-bar";
import { StyleSheet, Text, View } from "react-native";
import { TailwindProvider } from "tailwindcss-react-native";
import { Provider } from "react-redux";
// import useState and useEffect hooks from react
import React, { Component, useState, useEffect } from 'react'

import Routes from "./routes";
import { useStore } from "./store";

import Lottie from 'lottie-react-native';
import NetInfo from '@react-native-community/netinfo';
import ButtonCstm from "./custom-components/Button";

// convert class main to function main
export default function main () {
  // initialize network_status state here with useState
  const [network_status, set_network_status] = useState("");

  const store = useStore();
  
  // use useEffect to run Check_Internet when the component mounts
  useEffect(() => {
    Check_Internet()
  }, [])

  Check_Internet = async () => {
    await NetInfo.fetch().then(state => {
      console.log("Connection type", state.type);
      console.log("Is Connected", state.isConnected);

      if (state.isConnected == true) {
        // set state with set_network_status
        set_network_status("online");
      }
      else {
        // set state with set_network_status
        set_network_status("offline");
      }
    });
  }

  // remove render and return raw jsx
  if (network_status == "online") {
    return (
      <TailwindProvider>
        <Provider
          store={store}
        >
          <Routes />
          <StatusBar style="auto" />
          <Text> hey you are online</Text>
        </Provider>
      </TailwindProvider>
    )
  }
  else {
    return (
      <TailwindProvider>
        <Provider store={store} >
          <Routes />
          <StatusBar style="auto" />
          <Lottie style={{ marginBottom: 50, }} source={require('../../assets/animation/no-internet1.json')} autoPlay loop />
          <Text style={styles.txt}> hey you are Offline please check your internet</Text>
          <ButtonCstm
          stylebtn={{
            height: 50,
            width: 200,
            backgroundColor: "rgba(90, 154, 230, 1)",
            borderRadius: 10,
            position: "absolute",
            bottom: 80,

          }}
          title={"Try Again"}
          stylebtntitle={{
            color: colors.black,
            fontWeight: "normal",
            fontSize: 20,
            marginTop: 12,
            textAlign: "center",
            fontFamily: "OpenSans",
          }}
          onPress={Check_Internet}
        />
        </Provider>
      </TailwindProvider>
    )
  }
}
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
  txt: {
    fontSize: 20,
    fontWeight: "bold",
  }
});

You can read more on useState and useEffect from the official react docs website

Class components cannot use React hooks. Best solution is to convert your component from class to functional.

There may be another solution to achieve the same result in a class component but if you wish to use hooks, it must be a functional component.
