'How can I link certain actions between 2 Redux stores?
I've got a situation whereby I wish to "link" a portion 2 Redux stores together (I know this is unusual), but I can't work out how to filter the actions appropriately.
I have a re-usable component, that has lots of complex state within it and therefore it has a Redux store to manage this. As this is within a library, rather than an application, I can't use the old rule of "single source of truth" as that would break the encapsulation model.
The way I setup my store is as follows, which correctly partitions parts of the store.
const createStore = () => {
const reducer = combineReducers({
a: aReducer,
b: bReducer,
c: cReducer,
});
const composeEnhancers = composeWithDevTools({});
const store = create(reducer, composeEnhancers(applyMiddleware(ReduxThunk)));
return store;
};
I then have a bunch of actions, for example here's one which operates on the a
part of the store and the b
part of the store:
const foo = (payload) => ({
type: "A.FOO",
payload,
});
const bar = (payload) => ({
type: "B.BAR",
payload,
});
I essentially wish to link two store instances together, so that any operation that happens on a
in store1
, also happens in store2
. I have a list of known type
s that are available, but I'm not sure how I access them.
I can do this in a primitive way which copies ALL operations:
const [store1, setStore1] = useState();
const [store2, setStore2] = useState();
useEffect(() => {
if (store1 && store2) {
const store1_dispatch = store1.dispatch;
const store2_dispatch = store2.dispatch;
const dispatch = (...args) => {
store1_dispatch(...args);
store2_dispatch(...args);
};
store1.dispatch = dispatch;
store2.dispatch = dispatch;
}
}, [store1, store2]);
return (
<>
<ComponentA onStoreCreated={setStore1} />
<ComponentB onStoreCreated={setStore2} />
</>
);
But this breaks various things. Can anyone see a way I can achieve this just copying all actions that operate on a
or have an action type that starts with A.*
?
