best-practice way to get formName in props

[fairbairn]

Haven't seen a way to get to the formName that's passed in as form for reduxForm(). Is there a reason it's not available in props the same way formKey is provided?

What's the best way to get to it?

Yeah, it's not currently available. But I don't understand where you need it where you don't have it. If you're talking about what you're passing to the decorator, you've already got it in the same file as your component.

It's a nice way to have a pre-defined identifier for the actual form
that we can use downstream for our own purposes. We use a lot of common
internally-built components that are wrapped by reduxForm, and we were
looking for a pleasant and already implemented way of knowing which form
was what. The formName assigned in reduxForm works for us. Would just
be a convenience really, instead of us adding more custom props in other
places in the application to provide the same value.

I've added the form name to the props for v6. You can PR the same for v5 if you care enough.

Released v6 change as v6.0.0-alpha.14.
