redux-event v2.0.0

redux-event

Compose and react upon redux actions

Installation

npm i redux-event

Use

It's recommended to put the middleware creation in a separate file:

// ./store/middleware/events.js

import { eventMiddleware } from 'redux-event'

export const {
  before,
  onceBefore,
  after,
  onceAfter,
  onError,
  middleware,
} = eventMiddleware()

Then install the middleware:

// ./store/index.js

import { applyMiddleware, createStore } from 'redux'
import { middleware as eventMiddleware } from './middleware/events'
import reducer from './reducer'

export default createStore(reducer, applyMiddleware(eventMiddleware))

Now you can react on all actions that have been dispatched:

import { after } from './middleware/events'
import store from '.'

after('ADD_TODO', async (state, action) => {
  await makeRequestToApi()
  store.dispatch({type: 'TODO_ADDED', action.todo})
})

Typescript

For extra type safety add the root state and actions to middleware creation:

// ./store/index.ts

export type RootState {
  todos: {...}
}

export type Actions = TodoActions | OtherActions

// ./store/middleware/events.ts

import { eventMiddleware } from 'redux-event'
import { RootState, Actions } from '..'

export const {
  before,
  onceBefore,
  after,
  onceAfter,
  onError,
  middleware,
} = eventMiddleware<RootState, Actions>()

Listening to events

before()

Before the state has been reduced.

after()

After the state has been reduced.

onError()

Error will be swallowed in async listeners and emitted as errors. Catch them here.
