import React,{Component} from 'react'
import axios from 'axios';

export default class EditComponent extends Component{
constructor() {
        super()
        this.state = {
            name: "",
            author: ""
        }
        this.handleChange = this.handleChange.bind(this)
        this.submitHandleChange = this.submitHandleChange.bind(this)
    }

  componentDidMount() {
      axios.get('localhost/book/edit'+this.props.match.params.id)
          .then(response => {
              this.setState({ 
                name: response.data.name, 
                author: response.data.author
                 });
          })
           .catch(function (error) {
              console.log(error);
          })
    }


    handleChange(event) {
        const {name, value} = event.target
        this.setState({ [name]: value })
    }
    submitHandleChange(event){
     event.preventDefault();
     const book = {
        name: this.state.name,
        author: this.state.author
    }

    axios.post('localhost/book/update'+this.props.match.params.id, book)
        .then(res => console.log(res.data));

        this.props.history.push('/view');


    }


    render(){
      return(
<div>
     <h1> EditComponent  </h1>
