v1.3.5
This release adds the ability to cancel async thunks before execution, improves TS thunk types, and fixes a broken middleware option name change.
Changes
Async Thunk Cancellation
The createAsyncThunk API already had support for signaling cancellation of in-progress requests via an AbortController. However, there was no way to skip executing the payload creator callback itself, or skip dispatching the pending action.
We've added a condition option to createAsyncThunk that allows you to run checks before the payload creator is executed, and bail out of the thunk entirely if desired by returning false:
const fetchUserById = createAsyncThunk(
'users/fetchByIdStatus',
async (userId, thunkAPI) => {
const response = await userAPI.fetchById(userId)
return response.data
},
{
condition: (userId, { getState, extra }) => {
const { users } = getState()
const fetchStatus = users.requests[userId]
if (fetchStatus === 'fulfilled' || fetchStatus === 'loading') {
// Already fetched or in progress, don't need to re-fetch
return false
}
}
}
)Thunk Typing Improvements
We've updated the createAsyncThunk TS types to fix an issue when there is no thunk argument, and to make it easier to wrap createAsyncThunk in your own abstractions. See #486 / #489 for the issues and #502 / #512 for the updates.
Immutable Middleware Options
When we inlined the immutable check middleware, we ended up changing the ignore option name to ignoredPaths. We've added handling for ignore for backwards compatibility just in case anyone was relying on that. We've also better documented the options for the serializable check middleware. See #491, #492, and #510 .
