react-hook-thunk-reducer

Akin to redux-thunk, useThunkReducer() augments React's useReducer() hook so that the action dispatcher supports thunks. Now, you can write action creators that return a function rather than an action!

Requires React v16.8 and above.

Npm version Travis David


Install

npm install react-hook-thunk-reducer

Then just import it and use it like you would React.useReducer().

import { useThunkReducer } from 'react-hook-thunk-reducer';

function Component({ initialState }) {
  const [state, dispatch] = useThunkReducer(reducer, initialState);

  // ...
}

Usage

Create your actions just like you would in Redux. Similar to redux-thunk, if an action returns a function, it's treated as a thunk and has access to the current state.

function increment() {
  return {
    type: 'increment'
  };
}

function incrementIfOdd() {
  return (dispatch, getState) => {
    const { count } = getState();

    if (count % 2 !== 0) {
      dispatch(increment());
    }
  };
}

Create your functional component and call the useThunkReducer() hook as if it were React.useReducer();

import { useThunkReducer } from 'react-hook-thunk-reducer';

// ...

function reducer(state, action) {
  switch (action.type) {
    case 'increment':
      return { count: state.count + 1 };
    default:
      throw new Error();
  }
}

function Counter({ initialState }) {
  const [state, dispatch] = useThunkReducer(reducer, initialState);

  // ...

  return (
    <>
      Count: {state.count}
      <button onClick={onButtonPress}>+</button>
    </>
  );
}

Dispatch your actions using the augmented dispatch function.

const onButtonPress = () => {
  dispatch(incrementIfOdd());
};

The value of the inner function will be returned when dispatching thunks.

function incrementAndReturnCount() {
  return (dispatch, getState) => {
    dispatch(increment());

    return getState().count;
  };
}

const newCount = dispatch(incrementAndReturnCount());
