Async Redux Action Creators

({
  prefix: String,
  states: [...String]
}) => ({ entity: String }) => {
  ...[String]: ReduxAction
}

install

yarn add -D async-redux-actions redux-actions

What

async-redux-actions is a small helper that uses redux-actions to create a set of action creators and action types that you can use for all of your app's actions. It helps you by taking an object of actions and returning a set of action creators and actions types.

Why

I like using redux-actions in conjunction with redux-promise-middleware, but felt icky about writing things like ${userActions.signIn.toString()}/RECEIVED.

How

// user.js

import createActions from 'async-redux-actions';

const actions = createActions({
  states: ['REQUESTED', 'RECEIVED', 'REJECTED'],
  prefix: '💎',
}); // returns an function that is waiting on an entity and an object of actions.

export default actions({ entity: 'user ' })({
  PROFILE: promiseApi.getProfile,
});

That will create these action creators and types:

action creators

• profile.requested()
• profile.received()
• profile.rejected()
• profile()

along side of redux-promise-middleware, dispatching profile will kick off each action according to it's state, just like normal.

types

• '💎/USER/PROFILE/REQUESTED',
• '💎/USER/PROFILE/RECEIVED',
• '💎/USER/PROFILE/REJECTED'
