Unable to access Reducer & state values

I am unable to access my state values saved in store on any screen. values reach to actions but when I access it from store it returns always undefined.
Every thing is in separate files
Reducer 1
import * as Actions from '../actionTypes'
import initialStore from './initialStore'
const homeModuleReducer = (state = initialStore, action) => {
switch (action.type) {
case Actions.SET_PROFILE_ONE:
console.log('call here')
return {
...state,
currentUser: action.profile
}
default:
return state;
}
}
export default homeModuleReducer
Reducer 2
import * as Actions from '../actionTypes'
import initialStore from './initialStore'
const loginModuleReducer = (state = initialStore, action) => {
switch (action.type) {
case Actions.SET_PROFILE:
return {
...state,
currentUser: action.profile
}
case Actions.SET_INITIAL_LOADING_STATUS:
return {
...state,
isInitialLoadingDone: action.loadingStatus
}
default:
return state;
}
}
export default loginModuleReducer
Combine Reducer
import { combineReducers } from 'redux'
import homeModuleReducer from './homeModuleReducer'
import loginModuleReducer from './loginModuleReducer'
export default combineReducers({
homeModuleReducer,
loginModuleReducer,
})
Store
import { createStore, applyMiddleware } from 'redux'
import thunkMiddleware from 'redux-thunk';
import rootReducer from './reducers'
let store = createStore(rootReducer, applyMiddleware(thunkMiddleware));
export default store;
usage:
const mapStateToProps = (state) => ({
stateLoaded: state.rootReducer.isInitialLoadingDone,
profile: state.rootReducer.currentUser
});
Error:
undefined is not an object (evaluating 'state.rootReducer.isInitialLoadingDone')

You already combined your reducers so you can access reducer by it's key like this :
const mapStateToProps = (state) => ({
stateLoaded: state.homeModuleReducer.isInitialLoadingDone, // here homeModuleReducer is just an example. Change with reducer key in which isInitialLoadingDone is belong
profile: state.loginModuleReducer.currentUser
});

With hooks its much easier
wrap your root with store
import {Provider} from 'react-redux';
const App = () => {
return (
<Provider store={store}>
<Yourcomponent/>
</Provider>
);
};
export default App;
Access your state in any component like this
import { useSelector } from "react-redux";
const state = useSelector(state => state)

React Native Redux Reducer not working

I'm attempting to implement redux into a relatively simple app, however my actions don't seem to be triggering the reducers properly. Through console logging the action seems to be firing, but the respective reducer isn't being executed.
App.js:
import {Provider} from 'react-redux';
import configureStore from './src/config/configureStore.js';
const store = configureStore();
export default class App extends React.Component {
render() {
return (
<Provider store = {store}>
<RootStack />
</Provider>
);
}
}
configureStore.js:
import {createStore, applyMiddleware} from 'redux';
import reducers from '../reducers';
import thunk from 'redux-thunk';
export default function configureStore(initialState) {
const store = createStore (
reducers,
applyMiddleware(thunk)
);
return store;
}
actions/index.js:
export const saveRisk = (payload) => {
console.log('saved RISK!');
return (dispatch) => {
dispatch({type: 'risk_chosen',payload: payload});
}
}
reducers/index.js:
import { combineReducers } from 'redux';
import RiskReducer from './RiskReducer';
export default combineReducers({
risk_level: RiskReducer
});
RiskReducer.js
const INITIAL_STATE = {risk_level: false};
export default (risk = INITIAL_STATE, action) => {
if(action.type === 'risk_chosen') {
console.log('RISK REDUCER SUCCESSFUL')
return {
...risk, risk_level: action.payload
};
}
console.log('REDUCER RISK:');
console.log(risk);
return risk;
}
RiskTolerance.js (A child component within RootStack which is using redux):
import { connect } from 'react-redux';
import {saveRisk} from '../../actions'
#connect(state => ({risk_level: state.risk_level.risk_level}, {saveRisk}))
export default class RiskTolerance extends React.Component {
// ...
componentDidMount(){
console.log(this.props.risk_level);
// ^^returns undefined, despite the reducer initializing it to "false"
let riskVal = 'something'
this.props.saveRisk(riskVal)
}
// ...
}
EDIT: I have changed the initial value in the reducer to an appropriate object but my reducer is still not working after the action is called. Any ideas?
Thank you!

There is problem with initial state in your reducer. Make changes as shown below:
INITIAL_STATE = { risk_level: false }

Figured it out, when calling the action I needed to write:
this.props.dispatch(this.props.saveRisk(riskVal))
Thanks for your help everyone!

using combineReducers() gives different runtime result than single reducer

I am trying to initialise a basic store from a root reducer with initial state.
My root reducer
import Entity from "../api/Entity";
import { UPDATE_GROUPING } from "../constants/action-types";
import IAction from "../interfaces/IAction";
import IStoreState from "../interfaces/IStoreState";
const initialState:IStoreState = {
callsInProgress: false,
groupingOptions: ["Strategy", "User", "Date"],
groupingType: "Strategy",
numberOfCalls: 2,
items: [new Entity()],
};
const rootReducer = (state = initialState, action: IAction<object>) => {
switch (action.type) {
case UPDATE_GROUPING:
return { ...state, groupingType: action.payload};
default:
return state;
}
};
export default rootReducer;
When I create the store with the rootreducer as below
import { createStore } from 'redux';
import rootreducer from '../reducers/rootreducer';
const store = createStore(rootreducer);
export default store;
It works. The React components get initialised with the correct state for groupingType, groupingOptions etc.
However if I try and use a combineReducers() approach - even with just this single root reducer (should be identical) then when my components load, they do not have any initial state passed.
ie
import { createStore } from 'redux';
import reducers from '../reducers';
const store = createStore(reducers);
export default store;
My index.ts in the reducers folder which returns a combineReducers() call (the one which doesnt work)
import {combineReducers} from 'redux';
import rootreducer from './rootreducer';
// main reducers
export default combineReducers({
rootreducer
});
And lastly my component which hooks into redux and should import the state from the redux store
import updateGroupingType from "./actions/uiactions";
import './App.css';
import * as React from 'react';
import { connect } from 'react-redux';
import IStoreState from './interfaces/IStoreState';
interface IGroupingProps {
groupingOptions? : string[],
groupingType? : string,
updateGroupingAction? : any
}
class GroupingSelector extends React.Component<IGroupingProps, {}> {
constructor(props: IGroupingProps) {
super(props);
this.onGroupingChange = this.onGroupingChange.bind(this);
}
public render() {
if (this.props.groupingOptions == null)
{
return null;
}
return (
<div className="Grouping-selector">
<div className="Horizontal-panel-right Grouping-search-combo">
<select onChange={this.onGroupingChange}>
{this.props.groupingOptions.map((name, index)=>
<option key={index}>{name}</option>
)}
</select>
</div>
<div className="Content Horizontal-panel-right">
Group by
</div>
</div>);
}
private onGroupingChange(e: any) {
const { value } = e.target;
this.props.updateGroupingAction(value);
}
}
const mapStateToProps:any = (state: IStoreState) => {
return {
groupingOptions: state.groupingOptions,
groupingType: state.groupingType,
};
}
const mapDispatchToProps = (dispatch:any) => {
return {
updateGroupingAction: (groupingType:string) => dispatch(updateGroupingType(groupingType))
};
};
export default connect(mapStateToProps, mapDispatchToProps)(GroupingSelector);
Why is my usage of combineReducers not working in the same way as when I use the single rootreducer?

From the doc
The combineReducers helper function turns an object whose values are different reducing functions into a single reducing function you can pass to createStore.
The resulting reducer calls every child reducer, and gathers their results into a single state object.
The state produced by combineReducers() namespaces the states of each reducer under their keys as passed to combineReducers()
When you are using rootReducer as a key inside of your combineReducers, it will create a state which shape will be
{ "rootReducer": YOUR_PREVIOUS_STATE}
You should use combineReducers only if you have different reducers for each key

Your root reducer should be key value pairs like,
export default combineReducers({
home:homeReducer
});
So that in your component, mapStateToProps() you will be able to access these values as,
const mapStateToProps = (state: any) => {
return {
users: state.home
};
};

Redux action not triggering reducers

Problem
I wired up my react application with a Redux store, added an api action to gather data from my backend including middleware redux-promise. Most everything seems to work as I can see my store in the React web editor along with the combine reducer keys. When I have my action called, it works and console logs the completed promise. However, my reducers never run. I thought it was an issue with my dispatch on the main container, but I've tried every way that I can think of at this point - regular dispatch() and bindActionCreators. HELP!
Index.js
import React from 'react';
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import App from './App.js';
import { createStore, applyMiddleware } from 'redux';
import { Provider } from 'react-redux';
import promiseMiddleware from 'redux-promise';
import RootReducer from './reducers';
const createStoreWithMiddleware = applyMiddleware(promiseMiddleware)(createStore)
let store = createStore(RootReducer);
ReactDOM.render(
<Provider store={store}>
<App />
</Provider>,
document.getElementById('root'));`
Combine Reducers
import { combineReducers } from 'redux';
import ReducerGetPostings from './reducer_get_postings'
const rootReducer = combineReducers({
postingRecords: ReducerGetPostings
})
export default rootReducer;
Reducer
import { FETCH_POSTINGS } from '../actions/get_postings'
export default function (state = null, action) {
console.log('action received', action)
switch (action.type) {
case FETCH_POSTINGS:
return [ action.payload ]
}
return state;
}
Action API
import axios from 'axios';
import { url } from '../api_route';
export const FETCH_POSTINGS = 'FETCH_POSTINGS'
export function fetchpostings() {
const postingRecords = axios.get(`${url}/api/postings`)
console.log('Postings', postingRecords)
return {
type: FETCH_POSTINGS,
payload: postingRecords
};
}
Container
import { connect } from 'react-redux';
import { bindActionCreators } from 'redux'
import { fetchpostings } from '../../actions/get_postings.js'
class Dashboard extends Component {
//....lots of other functionality already built here.
componentDidMount() {
axios.get(`${url}/api/postings`)
.then(res => res.data)
.then(
(postingRecords) => {
this.setState({
postingData: postingRecords,
postingOptions: postingRecords
});
},
(error) => {
this.setState({
error
})
}
)
// primary purpose is to replace the existing api call above with Redux Store and fetchpostings action creator
fetchpostings()
}
}
function mapDispatchToProps(dispatch) {
// return {actions: bindActionCreators({ fetchpostings }, dispatch)}
return {
fetchpostings: () => dispatch(fetchpostings())
}
}
export default connect(null, mapDispatchToProps)(Dashboard);

You are not dispatching your action, when you call fetchpostings() in componentDidMount you are calling the method imported from actions/get_postings.js, not the method that will dispatch.
Try this.props.fetchpostings() instead.
You also did not bind state to props you need to do that as well.

Cannot read state from Redux store. What did I miss?

Here is my index.js where I initially dispatch an action to read my list of locations:
import 'babel-polyfill';
import React from 'react';
import { render } from 'react-dom';
import configureStore from './store/configureStore';
import {Provider} from 'react-redux';
import { Router, browserHistory } from 'react-router';
import routes from './routes';
import {loadLocationList} from './actions/locationActions';
import './css/styles.css';
const store = configureStore();
render(
<Provider store={store}>
<Router history={browserHistory} routes={routes} />
</Provider>,
document.getElementById('app')
);
Then here is my action where I get the data & then create an action out of it:
export function loadLocationListSuccess(alistingData) {
return { type: types.LOAD_LOCATION_LIST_SUCCESS, listingData: alistingData};
}
export function loadLocationList() {
return function(dispatch){ //we return a function that accepts a parameter, we just called it dispatch
//dispatch(fetchCallActions.fetchCallStart("")); // we dispatch a function fetchCallStart to indicate the start of our call, this is to keep in check with our asynchronous function calls
let link = 'http://example.com:8399/location';//our fetch url
console.log(link); //we log our link, just for debug purposes
return fetch(link) //start fetch
.then(function(response) {
return response.json();
}).then(function(json) {
dispatch(loadLocationListSuccess(json));
}).catch(function(ex) {
console.log('parsing failed', ex);
});
};
}
Then here is my reducer:
import * as types from '../actions/actionTypes';
export default function locationReducer(state = [], action) {
switch(action.type) {
case types.LOAD_LOCATION_LIST_SUCCESS:
return {listingData: action.listingData};
default:
return state;
}
}
Then here is my mapStateToProps & connect function:
function mapStateToProps(state, ownProps) {
return {
// we'll call this in our component -> this.props.listingData
listingData: state.listingData
};
}
export default connect(mapStateToProps, mapDispatchToProps)(homePage);
For some reason, it cannot read state.listingData or am I actually doing it wrongly? Anyone can help me with this problem?
I tried logging state.listingData and it showed undefined
Here is my configureStore:
import {createStore, applyMiddleware} from 'redux';
import rootReducer from '../reducers';
import reduxImmutableStateInvariant from 'redux-immutable-state-invariant';
import thunk from 'redux-thunk';
export default function configureStore(initialState) {
return createStore(
rootReducer,
initialState,
applyMiddleware(thunk, reduxImmutableStateInvariant())
);
}
Here is my combined Reducer:
import {combineReducers} from 'redux';
import courses from './courseReducer';
import locations from './locationReducer';
const rootReducer = combineReducers({
courses,
locations
});
export default rootReducer;
Did I not connect it to the store properly?
Recent update:
Logging JSON.stringify(state) in mapStateToProps would actually shows the result. Thanks guys.
The correct path turned out to be state.locations.listingData because I think in my combined Reducer I included the reducer as locations so maybe thats why the state for it is state.locations. Hope this helps anyone with the problem.

Can you show the code of configureStore file? The problem might be there, may be you forgot to add reducer to list of reducers.
Does the action works right? Did you log data before dispatch(loadLocationListSuccess(json));?
UPD:
Because of rootReducer. Each reducer creates their own key in store. When you combine your reducers in rootReducer, like:
import locations from './locationReducer';
const rootReducer = combineReducers({
courses,
locations
});
It creates store with this kind of structure:
const store = {
courses: {},
locations: {}
}
So, after that you dispatched action and reducer changed the data to this:
const store = {
courses: {},
locations: {
listingData: someData
}
}
If you want to access to listingData like: state.listingData, you need to change a little your reducer and combineReducer to:
export default function listingData(state = {}, action) {
switch(action.type) {
case types.LOAD_LOCATION_LIST_SUCCESS:
return action.listingData;
default:
return state;
}
}
...
import listingData from './locationReducer';
const rootReducer = combineReducers({
courses,
listingData
});
