dispatch
method is what you use to dispatch actions to the Redux store. Calling store.dispatch()
and passing the value returned from an action creator sends an action back to the store.
Recall that action creators return an object with a type property that specifies the action that has occurred. Then the method dispatches an action object to the Redux store. Based on the previous challenge's example, the following lines are equivalent, and both dispatch the action of type LOGIN
:
store.dispatch(actionCreator());
store.dispatch({ type: 'LOGIN' });
login
property currently set to false
. There's also an action creator called loginAction()
which returns an action of type LOGIN
. Dispatch the LOGIN
action to the Redux store by calling the dispatch
method, and pass in the action created by loginAction()
.
loginAction
should return an object with type
property set to the string LOGIN
.
testString: assert(loginAction().type === 'LOGIN', 'Calling the function loginAction
should return an object with type
property set to the string LOGIN
.');
- text: The store should be initialized with an object with property login
set to false
.
testString: assert(store.getState().login === false, 'The store should be initialized with an object with property login
set to false
.');
- text: The store.dispatch()
method should be used to dispatch an action of type LOGIN
.
testString: "getUserInput => assert((function() { let noWhiteSpace = getUserInput('index').replace(/\\s/g,''); return noWhiteSpace.includes('store.dispatch(loginAction())') || noWhiteSpace.includes('store.dispatch({type: \\'LOGIN\\'})') === true })(), 'The store.dispatch()
method should be used to dispatch an action of type LOGIN
.');"
