Redux Receive Enhancer

A store enhancer for receiving a future redux action as a promise.

npm i --save redux-receive-enhancer

Setup

let { createStore, compose } = require('redux')
let receiveEnhancer = require('redux-receive-enhancer')

let store = createStore(rootReducer, compose(middleware, receiveEnhancer))

Usage

store.receive({
  [actions.LOGIN_SUCCESS]: (action) => action.payload.userDetails,
  [actions.LOGIN_FAILURE]: () => Promise.reject('Login failed!')
}).then(
  takeUserToHomepage,
  showErrorAlert
)

API

receive

receive :: {type} -> Promise a b

Takes an object mapping action types to functions and returns a Promise. When an action matching one of the action types in types is dispatched, the returned promise will resolve with the result of the corresponding function (or reject if the function returns a rejected promise).

Special Types

timeout :: (Int, a -> b)

A timeout property can be added to types to specify how long receive should wait for an action. It should be an array, the first element is the time in milliseconds for the timeout, the second is optional and is a function that will be called to determine what the returned promise should resolve with (by default, it will reject the promise with Error('TIMEOUT')).

If you find this enhancer useful, you may not be using redux correctly.
