So I'm trying to load a Redux Form pre populated with values from my store. However I'm unable to get anything back other than null
. Been at this for several hours now and been reading over several SO examples trying different things and think I'm just at a wall on this.
Following this Redux Form Initializing from State example
- Redux: 3.6.0
- React-Redux: 5.0.3
- Redux-Form: 6.6.3
- React: 15.4.2
There is a parent component that is rendering a child component which is the form. For sake of brevity going to put in the bare minimum of code and make names as generic as possible. Everything loads fine but I think the issue relies in not properly connecting to my store. Or rather I should just be loading the data on a componentWillMount
?
Parent Component:
import React, { Component } from 'react';
import { connect } from 'react-redux';
import { fetchUser } from '../actions/usersActions';
import ChildForm from './ChildForm.jsx'
@connect((store) => {
return{
user: store.users.user
}
})
export default class Parent extends Component{
componentWillMount(){
this.props.dispatch(fetchUser(this.props.match.params.id))
}
submit = (values) => {//do some stuff}
render(){
return(
<ChildForm onSubmit={this.submit} />
);
}
}
ChildForm:
import React, { Component } from 'react';
import { connect } from 'react-redux';
import { Field, reduxForm } from 'redux-form';
import { user } from './reducers/usersReducer.js';
class ChildForm extends Component{
render(){
console.log('FORM STATE >>>>>>>>>>', this.state); //Returns NULL
const { handleSubmit } = this.props;
return(
<form onSubmit={handleSubmit}>
<div>
<label htmlFor="firstName">First Name</label>
<Field name="first_name" component="input" type="text"/>
</div>
<button type="submit">Submit</button>
</form>
);
}
}
ChildForm = reduxForm({
form: 'childForm',
enableReinitialize : true // I found this in another SO Example
})(ChildForm);
ChildForm = connect(
state => ({
user: state.user,
initialValues: state.user
}),
{ fetchUser }
)(ChildForm)
export default ChildForm;
usersReducer.js
export default function reducer(state={
user: {},
}, action){
switch (action.type){
case "FETCH_USER_FULFILLED":{
return{
...state,
user: action.payload
}
}
}
return state;
}
So this is where I'm at currently. Can get the page, form, and submit all work. However I can't seem to figure out how to get my Store values out and into the form fields. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
