Higher-order reducer which makes possible dispatching an array of actions at once.

Usage

This package provides a Redux action creator and higher-order reducer handling that action which allows to dispatch an array of actions notifying connected components only once.

It should be used like this:

// during store creation
import { createStore } from 'redux'
import { supportActionChain } from 'redux-action-chain-hor'

const reducer = (state, action) => {
  // reducer code goes here
}
const store = createStore(
  // wrap your reducer with supportActionChain
  supportActionChain(reducer)
)

// -------------------------

// when dispatching multiple actions
// use `actionChain` action creator
import actionChain from 'redux-action-chain-hor'

dispatch(actionChain([action1(), action2('foo', 123), action3('boo')]))

In the example above reducers for actions action1, action2, action3 will be executed in order, passing state from the previous reducer to the next one. At the end Redux will notify connected components (only once!).

Rationale

Dispatching multiple redux actions sequentially results in multiple updates of connected components.

For example, if one dispatches redux actions action1, action2, action3 like this:

dispatch(action1())
dispatch(action2('foo', 123))
dispatch(action3('boo'))

components connected to Redux store will be notified 3 times - once after each dispatch call.
Depending on connected components that can have negative impact on performance.
