How to clean up React-Native useEffect with axios - react-native

Question

Currently I have defined in a functional component a useEffect as below
useEffect(() => {
(async function () {
posts.current = await BlogConsumer.getBlogPosts();
setLoading(false);
})();
return () => {
BlogConsumer.call_controller.abort();
};
}, []);
where this BlogConsumer is defined as below
class BlogConsumer {
static posts = {};
static call_controller = new AbortController();
static async getBlogPosts() {
await axios
.get('https://nice.api', {
signal: this.call_controller.signal,
})
.then(response => {
// treatment for success
})
.catch(error => {
// treatment for erros
});
return this.posts;
}
}
export default BlogConsumer;
The overral ideia is that in the render of the component I'll be calling a static method from my consumer and will retrieve the necessary data. For the pourpuse of not having memory leaks, I have my callback function in my useEffect that will abort my call whenever I unmount the component, but this is not working. React's message of Warning: Can't perform a React state update on an unmounted component. still appears if I enter the component and leave the screen before the API call is finished. I don't know where I am wrong, so I'd like a little help.
Thanks in advance.

You could just cancel the request on unmount. Like this:
export const fetchData = async (signal) => {
try {
const res = await instance.get("/pages/home", {
signal,
});
return res.data;
} catch (error) {
return Promise.reject(error);
}
};
useEffect(() => {
const controller = new AbortController();
fetchData(controller.signal);
return () => {
controller.abort()
};
}, []);
