Warning: An action was called but nothing was dispatched

[aksonov]

Could you clarify why it happens? I'm using alt from my component, react-native-router-flux and have such warnings after each 'action' call. Maybe it is connected that actions call another actions?

Yeah it's just a warning. Sometimes you fire an action but it doesn't dispatch and it's because you're returning undefined. This will be even more useful once alt switches completely to return to dispatch.

[aksonov]

So all store methods should return 'true' to avoid this warning? I thought setState should be enough at the end of store listeners...

[goatslacker]

no it's the actions not the store

[aksonov]

Could you clarify how to avoid this warning? All actions in my component are really dispatched, maybe problem that they return other actions?

                RouterActions[name] = alt.createAction(name, function (data) {
                    if (typeof(data)!='object'){
                        data={data:data};
                    }
                    var args = {name: name, data:data};
                    var action = child.props.type || 'push';
                    return RouterActions[action](args);
                });

[goatslacker]

what does RouterActions[action](args) return it looks like you have a wrapper action for this so that's why the warning is being triggered, nothing is being dispatched in this action and your return value is undefined?

[aksonov]

It just returns input params

I've been seeing this warning as well and I tried to test if I'm doing something wrong.

in my actions:

fetchLogs(filter) {
   //get logs with a filter
   var data = ['added new mes', 'created new share'];

   this.actions.updateLogs(data);
}

in my store

onUpdateLogs(data) {
   this.setState({
     data: data
   });
   console.log(this.state.data);
}

console outputs the expected array, and yet the warning shows up.

I'm getting this warning as well, my create action calls this.actions.creating which does a dispatch, but the warning still shows up.

[Faolain]

I have the same issue

[goatslacker]

I'm going to remove this warning in the next release and table it until I get rid of this.dispatch in actions.

@goatslacker Thank's 👍

@goatslacker I still see this warning in the latest release (0.18.4). Any plans to remove it? I'm setting running console.warn = function(){} to disable the warnings right now.

Would be great to have the possibility to turn this off.
