with callbacks within a side-effect or generator function? This library help along!
It allows us to show a typical alert-modal while we can pass callbacks
for the user-action the redux-saga-way with `yield put()` or `yield call()`.
Other side-effects like `fork` or `spawn` aren't implemented yet. Feel
free to contribute if you need it!
# Installation
```bash
yarn add redux-saga-rn-alert
```
or
```bash
npm install redux-saga-rn-alert --save
```
# Setup
In the root reducer add the alert-reducer. For instance:
**reducer.js:**
```javascript
import { alertReducer } from 'redux-saga-rn-alert';
const appReducer = combineReducers({
appStates,
routes,
...
alertReducer
});
```
In the root saga spawn the channel watcher:
**saga.js**
```javascript
import { watchAlertChannel } from 'redux-saga-rn-alert';
export default function * rootSaga() {
yield [
// ... all your sagas here
spawn(watchAlertChannel),
];
}
```
The alert-function has the same signature as the official [alert-method](https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/alert.html#alert)
of react-native.
```javascript
static alert(title, message?, buttons?, options?) {}
```
Show an alert with 2 Buttons and put some actions:
```javascript
const buttons = [
{text: 'Cancel', put: {type: ACTIONS.S_CANCEL_EDIT}},
{text: 'OK', call: RouterActions.pop},
]
yield call(alert, 'Error', 'Foobar message', buttons)
```
In this example an alert-box will be shown with two buttons "Cancel"
and "ok". If the user taps on "cancel", a `yield put()` will be
executed with a user-defined action, while "ok" raises a `yield call`
to the pop-method of the Router from [react-native-router-flux](https://github.com/itinance/react-native-router-flux).
Instead of executing a "plain" function like `pop()` without any arguments, you can also call a method passing arguments:
## Example 2
```javascript
const buttons = [
{text: 'Cancel', put: {type: ACTIONS.S_CANCEL_EDIT}},
{text: 'OK', call: {method: myMethod, args: {name: '', street: ''}},
]
yield call(alert, 'Error', 'Happy to call alert with callbacks within a generator function', buttons)
```
## Example 3
It is also allowed to pass an array of several side effects:
```javascript
const buttons = [
{text: 'Cancel', actions:
[
{put: {type: ACTIONS.S_CANCEL_EDIT}},
{call: RouterActions.pop},
],
},
{text: 'OK', call: RouterActions.pop},
]
yield call(alert, 'Error', 'Foobar message', buttons)
```
In this example, the callback-function of the Cancel-button will
first "yield put" an action to our reducers and then call the pop()-method
of the router.
