Doesn't seem like the REQUEST action is ever sent in api.js

Hi!

Thanks for the great demo! I'm curious as to requestType never appears to be used (on line 74) of api. Shouldn't an "I'm fetching" action be called for the get quotes action? it looks like it's only fired for the login sequence.

thanks

Thanks!

It was more just for brevity in the article that goes along with the demo, but you're right, you'd want to use the requestType for fetching indication :)

Ah, ok -

Curious, where would that occur? it seems like there's either an error or success that comes out of the api middleware, but I'm confused as to where that "is fetching" action might be dispatched.

thanks!

You can actually just call next with it in the api middleware. So just above the return callApi...

next({type: requestType})

Then you can pick it up in your App.js container, just like how isAuthenticated is and you can use it to display a spinner if you like.

Let me know if that works for you :)
