# useBatchedCallback

```ts
function useBatchedCallback<TValue>(fn, options): (item) => void;
```

Defined in: [batcher/useBatchedCallback.ts:33](https://github.com/TanStack/pacer/blob/main/packages/octane-pacer/src/batcher/useBatchedCallback.ts#L33)

Returns a stable batched callback owned by the Octane lifecycle.

Collects items until maxSize, wait, or getShouldExecute triggers a batch. Each call adds one item; the wrapped function receives an array.

## Return value

Returns the bound addItem method, which accepts one item per call. It returns void, independently of the wrapped callback's return value.

## State and ownership

Use useBatcher when you need selected state or control methods. This callback does not expose the utility, its store, or a child subscription.

Call during component rendering. The hook retains its utility across renders and runs cleanup when the component unmounts.
Options accept an object with top-level getters or an options factory. Function-valued core options remain callbacks. Local options override provider defaults without replacing the utility or its pending work.
onUnmount replaces default cleanup and receives the utility instance. A custom callback must perform every needed cancel, stop, or abort action.

## Type Parameters

### TValue

`TValue`

## Parameters

### fn

(`items`) => `void`

### options

[`OctanePacerOptions`](../type-aliases/OctanePacerOptions.md)\<[`OctaneBatcherOptions`](../interfaces/OctaneBatcherOptions.md)\<`TValue`, \{
\}\>\>

## Returns

```ts
(item): void;
```

Adds an item to the batcher
If the batch size is reached, timeout occurs, or shouldProcess returns true, the batch will be processed

### Parameters

#### item

`TValue`

### Returns

`void`

## Example

```ts
import { useBatchedCallback } from '@tanstack/octane-pacer'

// During component rendering:
const schedule = useBatchedCallback((items: Array<number>) => { console.log(items) }, { maxSize: 5, wait: 500 })
schedule(1)
```
