Question 1

How to handle API calls with redux-logic?

Accepted Answer

Use the process hook in your logic to perform async operations like axios or fetch calls. You can dispatch results manually or use processOptions for automatic dispatching based on return values, as shown in the quick example with FETCH_POLLS.

Question 2

Redux-logic vs redux-thunk: which should I use?

Accepted Answer

Redux-logic centralizes logic with declarative features like cancellation and interception, making it better for complex async workflows. Redux-thunk is simpler for basic side effects but spreads logic across action creators without built-in control mechanisms.

Question 3

Can I use async/await in redux-logic?

Accepted Answer

Yes, redux-logic fully supports async/await syntax in the process hook. The README's tl;dr section lists it as a preferred style, allowing natural asynchronous code without extra setup.

Question 4

How to test redux-logic middleware?

Accepted Answer

Logic functions are plain JavaScript, so you can test them in isolation. The redux-logic-test package provides utilities to mock dependencies and verify dispatch calls, making unit testing straightforward as mentioned in the testing features.

Question 5

Does redux-logic work with React Native?

Accepted Answer

Yes, since it's JavaScript-based and doesn't rely on browser-specific APIs, redux-logic should work with React Native. However, ensure RxJS compatibility and test async operations like networking in the mobile environment.

Question 6

How to cancel async requests in redux-logic?

Accepted Answer

Configure the cancelType property in your logic to specify which action triggers cancellation. When that action is dispatched, pending async operations are automatically cancelled, as demonstrated in the FETCH_POLLS example.
