Dispatching action when a custom observable is cancelled












0















The newest version of redux-observable doesn't give any access to store and we have to dispatch actions by returning them from epics. I don't know how to dispatch actions when some observables are cancelled, for example by switchMap effect. For instance:



const counter = new Observable(observer => {
let i = 0;
const timer = setInterval(() => {
observer.next(i++);
}, 1000);

return {
unsubscribe: () => {
clearInterval(timer);
// how to dispatch action here like { type: 'COUNTER_ABORTED' }?
}
};
});


Or maybe this is RXJS antipattern what I want to do? Maybe there is some switchMap trick I could use to do additional things for cancelled observables?

  • As far as I know you cannot emit a value through the teardown logic. Maybe you can call a function in the complete callback to get the actions? counter.subscribe(event => /* ... */, null, () => getActions())

  • Thats why I would need to call store.dispatch, but I don't have access to it there and it seems hacky to provide this value by a closure etc, so I search for rxjs solution if this exists. Re your suggestion, how can I know in complete whether observable was successful, errored or cancelled? Pity we dont have callback onCancel in observer instance.
