There needs to be a way to get at the params of a CHANGE_LOCATION action

[leidegre]

The routes define an important aspect of the route namely the params. I've looked around and for this to work the routes need to be passed to the middleware.

Internally the way react-router does this is beyond me atm but I think this is doable. I'll update this issue with my progress and maybe provide a pull request for it.

The reason I think this is important is that the routes already define this structure and the logic for parsing routes in defined in react-router replicating this work (while it's easy to grep some like an ID from an URI) I'd very much prefer if these things were not dependant on each other.

In essence this is what I want.

import matchRoutes from 'react-router/lib/matchRoutes'

const routeConfig = [
  ...
]

const routeParamsMiddleware = store => next => action => {
  if (action.type === '@@router/LOCATION_CHANGE') {
    matchRoutes(routeConfig, action.payload, (error, state) => {
      action.routes = state.routes
      action.params = state.params
      next(action)
    })
    return
  }
  return next(action)
}

The obvious caveat is that this depends on an private react-router API, matchRoutes...

This is excluded by design.

@taion I did look but I did not find one. Thanks for pointing it out.

You might want to look at https://github.com/acdlite/redux-router instead.

@gaearon Thanks, that looks a lot like what I want. I'll have to take it for a spin.
