[![Code of Conduct][coc-badge]][coc]> WARNING: Please _only_ use this if you really can't find a way to use
> `React.useEffect`. There's often a better way to do what you're trying to do
> than a deep comparison.## The Problem
React's built-in [`useEffect`][react-hooks] hook has a second argument called
the "dependencies array" and it allows you to optimize when React will call your
effect callback. React will do a comparison between each of the values (via
[`Object.is`][object-is]) to determine whether your effect callback should be
called.The problem is that if you need to provide an object for one of those
dependencies and that object is new every render, then even if none of the
properties changed, your effect will get called anyway.## Table of Contents

This module is distributed via [npm][npm] which is bundled with [node][node] and
should be installed as one of your project's dependencies:```shell
npm install --save use-deep-compare-effect
```## Usage
You use it in place of `React.useEffect`.
> NOTE: Only use this if your values are objects or arrays that contain objects.
> Otherwise, you should just use `React.useEffect`. In case of "polymorphic"
> values (eg: sometimes object, sometimes a boolean), use
> `useDeepCompareEffectNoCheck`, but do it at your own risk, as maybe there can
> be better approaches to the problem.> NOTE: Be careful when your dependency is an object which contains a function.
> If that function is defined on the object during a render, then it's changed
> and the effect callback will be called every render.
> [Issue](https://github.com/kentcdodds/use-deep-compare-effect/issues/47) has more context.Example:
```jsx
import React from 'react'
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom'
import useDeepCompareEffect from 'use-deep-compare-effect'function Query({query, variables}) {
// some code...useDeepCompareEffect(
() => {
// make an HTTP request or whatever with the query and variables
// optionally return a cleanup function if necessary
},
// query is a string, but variables is an object. With the way Query is used
// in the example above, `variables` will be a new object every render.
// useDeepCompareEffect will do a deep comparison and your callback is only
// run when the variables object actually has changes.
