My application have two components, one renders a list and the other render the form:
I would like to use the same component to create new categories and also to edit the categories that already exists.
The create categories is working fine already, but to edit, needs to pass the id of the category in the list to the form inside the modal, as i am new into react, i would like some help. Thanks in advance.
The list file is called,
Categories.jsx
import React, { Component } from 'react'
import { Alert, Modal, Button } from "react-bootstrap";
import Datatable from '../../../globalcomponents/datatable/Datatable';
import CategoryForm from './CategoryForm';
const Api = require('../../api/CategoriesApi.js')
class Categories extends Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props) 
    this.state = {
      categories: [],
      isLoaded: false,
      error: null,
      isOpen: false
    }
  }
  openModal = () => this.setState({ isOpen: true });
  closeModal = () => this.setState({ isOpen: false });
  componentDidMount() {
    Api.getCategories()
      .then(response => {
        const [error, data] = response
        if (error) {
          this.setState({
            isLoaded: true,
            categories: [],
            error: data
          })
        } else {
          this.setState({
            isLoaded: true,
            categories: data
          })
        }
      })
  } 
  render() {
    const { error, isLoaded, categories } = this.state
    if (error) {
      return (
        <Alert color="danger">
          Error: {error}
        </Alert>
      )
    } else if (!isLoaded) {
      return (
        <Alert color="primary">
          Loading...
        </Alert>
      )
    } else {
