Async function passed as prop into React component causing @typescript-eslint/no-misused-promises error
I have the following asynchronous submitNewPatient function which is throwing @typescript-eslint/no-misused-promises error message from elint. Is it possible to adjust the function such that it removes this error?
const submitNewPatient = async (values: PatientFormValues) => {
try {
const { data: newPatient } = await axios.post<Patient>(
`${apiBaseUrl}/patients`,
values
);
dispatch({ type: "ADD_PATIENT", payload: newPatient });
closeModal();
} catch (e: unknown) {
if (axios.isAxiosError(e)) {
console.error(e?.response?.data || "Unrecognized axios error");
setError(
String(e?.response?.data?.error) || "Unrecognized axios error"
);
} else {
console.error("Unknown error", e);
setError("Unknown error");
}
}
};
Component used to pass function as a prop:
<AddPatientModal
modalOpen={modalOpen}
onSubmit={submitNewPatient}
error={error}
onClose={closeModal}
/>
I have also tried the following which removes the eslint error message based. However, seems like I am not entering the async code block (perhaps not triggering the async() function):
const submitNewPatient = (values: PatientFormValues) => {
async () => {
try {
const { data: newPatient } = await axios.post<Patient>(
`${apiBaseUrl}/patients`,
values
);
dispatch({ type: "ADD_PATIENT", payload: newPatient });
closeModal();
} catch (e: unknown) {
if (axios.isAxiosError(e)) {
console.error(e?.response?.data || "Unrecognized axios error");
setError(
String(e?.response?.data?.error) || "Unrecognized axios error"
);
} else {
console.error("Unknown error", e);
setError("Unknown error");
}
}
};
};

I think the problem is with the
async
code block syntax. You need it to make it an IIFE (Immediately-invoked Function Expression for it to be executed immediately.(async () => { await someAsyncFunction(); })();
Your
submitNewPatient
becomes -const submitNewPatient = (values: PatientFormValues) => { (async () => { try { const { data: newPatient } = await axios.post<Patient>( `${apiBaseUrl}/patients`, values ); dispatch({ type: "ADD_PATIENT", payload: newPatient }); closeModal(); } catch (e: unknown) { if (axios.isAxiosError(e)) { console.error(e?.response?.data || "Unrecognized axios error"); setError( String(e?.response?.data?.error) || "Unrecognized axios error" ); } else { console.error("Unknown error", e); setError("Unknown error"); } } })(); };
