I am using simple-peer library for making a chat application.
When I receive message from the other peer connection using peer.on('data' => (data) => { console.log(data) }), it is called multiple times and I receive the message multiple times.

Where are you calling `peer.on()`? Is it in a `useEffect()` hook? – Calvin Jul 04 '21 at 17:48

No, I have called it outside. – Abhishek Raghav Jul 05 '21 at 16:21

Are you using function components? Is the call part of a callback, or is it just something that's in your function? If it's the latter, `peer.on()` will be called on every render. – Calvin Jul 05 '21 at 18:29

Ok thanks @Calvin . I am actually using ```peer.on()``` inside a functional component. – Abhishek Raghav Jul 06 '21 at 14:58
