Let's create a new folder called actions in our project's ~/snapterest/source/actions directory. Then, we'll create the TweetActionCreators.js file in it:
import AppDispatcher from '../dispatcher/AppDispatcher';
function receiveTweet(tweet) {
const action = {
type: 'receive_tweet',
tweet
};
AppDispatcher.dispatch(action);
}
export { receiveTweet };Our action creators will need a dispatcher to dispatch the actions. We will import AppDispatcher that we created previously:
import AppDispatcher from '../dispatcher/AppDispatcher';
Then, we will create our first action creator receiveTweet():
function receiveTweet(tweet) {
const action = {
type: 'receive_tweet',
tweet
};
AppDispatcher.dispatch(action);
}The receiveTweet() function takes the tweet object as an argument, and creates the action object with a type property set to receive_tweet. It also adds the tweet object to our action object, and now every store will receive this tweet object...
