Creating a store

import { createStore } from 'redux' 
// Reducer function counter (state = { value: 0 }, action) { switch (action.type) { case 'INCREMENT': return { value: state.value + 1 } case 'DECREMENT': return { value: state.value - 1 } default: return state } } 
let store = createStore(counter) 
// Optional - you can pass `initialState` as a second arg let store = createStore(counter, { value: 0 }) 

A store is made from a reducer function, which takes the current state, and returns a new state depending on the action it was given.

Using a store

let store = createStore(counter) 
// Dispatches an action; this changes the state store.dispatch({ type: 'INCREMENT' }) store.dispatch({ type: 'DECREMENT' }) 
// Gets the current state store.getState() 
// Listens for changes store.subscribe(() => { ... }) 

Dispatch actions to change the store’s state.

React Redux

Provider

import { Provider } from 'react-redux' 
React.render( <Provider store={store}> <App /> </Provider>, mountNode) 

The <Provider> component makes the store available in your React components. You need this so you can use connect().

Mapping state

import { connect } from 'react-redux' 
// A functional React component function App ({ message, onMessageClick }) { return ( <div onClick={() => onMessageClick('hello')}> {message} </div> ) } 
// Maps `state` to `props`: // These will be added as props to the component. function mapState (state) { return { message: state.message } } // Maps `dispatch` to `props`: function mapDispatch (dispatch) { return { onMessageClick (message) { dispatch({ type: 'click', message }) } } } // Connect them: export default connect(mapState, mapDispatch)(App) 

Shorthand

export default connect( (state) => ({ message: state.message }), (dispatch) => ({ onMessageClick: (message) => { dispatch({ type: 'click', message }) } }) )(App) 

Same as above, but shorter.

Combining reducers

const reducer = combineReducers({ counter, user, store }) 

Combines multiple reducers into one reducer function. See: combineReducers (redux.js.org)

Middleware

Signature

// noop middleware const logger = store => dispatch => action { dispatch(action) } 
const logger = store => { // This function runs on createStore(). // It returns a decorator for dispatch(). return dispatch => { // Runs on createStore(), too. // It returns a new dispatch() function return action => { // Runs on every dispatch() } } } 

Middlewares are simply decorators for dispatch() to allow you to take different kinds of actions, and to perform different tasks when receiving actions.

Applying middleware

const enhancer = applyMiddleware(logger, thunk, ...) 
const store = createStore(reducer, {}, enhancer)
