reactjs - React Toastify - Not getting error notification

Question

What I want is, when I get no data from the api, instead of this No data, I want A notification or toast.error to get displayed.

shops.jsx

import React from 'react';
import './shops.css';
import Shop from './shop'
import { ToastContainer, toast } from 'react-toastify';
import 'react-toastify/dist/ReactToastify.css';
require('dotenv').config()
const TOKEN = "eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJ1c2VySWQiOiI1ZjFiMjNlYTQxNmJhMjQ3YjQ5MDk4Y2IiLCJlbWFpbCI6Img1aW1icjQ0NGQ7QHR5cC5pbiIsImlhdCI6MTU5NjgxMTU5MSwiZXhwIjoxNTk2ODE1MTkxfQ.UyrUkbNWzenf50FL8AZE1iZaii11P7MwdXpKmoCB9nM";
class Shops extends React.Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);
    this.state = {
      shops: []
    };
  }
  componentDidMount() {
    console.log(process.env.REACT_APP_BaseURL);
    // replace with correct URL: http://localhost:5000/api/shops/allShops
    fetch(process.env.REACT_APP_BaseURL, {
      method: "get",
      headers: new Headers({
        Authorization: `Bearer ${TOKEN}`
      })
    })
      .then(response =>response.json())
      .then(data => {
        this.setState({ shops: data.fetchedShops });
        toast.success("API LOADED SUCCESSFULLY","SUCCESS");
      })
      .catch(err =>{
        console.log("Error", err);
        if(err){
          toast.error("error occured");
        }
      });
  }
  render() {
    const shops =
      this.state.shops.length > 0 ?
        this.state.shops.map(item => (
          <Shop name={item.shopname} address={item.address} mobile={item.phoneNumber} />
        ))
        : <span >No data</span>;
        console.log(this.state.shops);
    return <div id="container">{shops}</div>;
  }
}
export default Shops;

In the 6th line you can see <span >No data</span> instead of this I want a toast.error notification, but when I write toast.error("No data"); instead of this span i got something like this instead of error notification

If you want to toast that there is no data when the array is empty it needs to be done in two steps since render is a pure function, i.e. without side effects

1. Issue toast side-effect in component lifecycle functions, i.e. componentDidMount and/or componentDidUpdate
2. Render null when toasting no data, or since the map can handle empty arrays without issue, just return the empty map result array

Code

class Shops extends Component {
  state = {
    shops: []
  };

  checkShops = () => {
    const { shops } = this.state;

    if (!shops.length) {
      toast.error("No Data");
    }
  };

  componentDidMount() {
    this.checkShops(); // not really needed if fetch for data first
  }

  componentDidUpdate() {
    this.checkShops();
  }

  render() {
    const { shops } = this.state;

    return (
      <div id="container">
        {shops.map((item) => <div>Data</div>)}
      </div>
    );
  }
}
