How to invoke on client side? about redux-async-connect HOT 6 OPEN

hi @kjanoudi
Could you please describe more detailed your case?
There is no such api to reload promises in asyncConnect decorator now
However changing location would reload them

from redux-async-connect.

Hi @sars,
As to this topic, what would it take to expose that kind of API? I think it would expand the usability of the asyncConnect package exponentially if we can allow reloading of the data without a location/route change.

Also, unrelated but I'm not sure if you saw my post here, that may help me understand better:
erikras/react-redux-universal-hot-example#928 (comment)

from redux-async-connect.

@kjanoudi ,
what interface would you expect for such API?
there is loadOnServer method that triggers loading

do you want to trigger just reloading of current route?
or you want to trigger it for specific route?

from redux-async-connect.

@sars Is the loadOnServer method able to be called from the client side? I was unclear, based on it's usage within the node.js code in the example, as well as the function name.

given this example:

@asyncConnect([{
  key: 'widgets',
  promise: ({helpers}) => helpers.client.get('/widget/load/param1/param2')
}])

It would be nice to be able to do something like pass in a dispatch method that would allow us to reload a prop based on it's key. Something like

import { loadAsync } from 'redux-async-connect';

handleClick(){
loadAsync('widgets')
}

Is that feasible?

@kjanoudi the problem is that key is global now. This means that you can use asyncConnect for different components with same keys.

what promise in your case loadAsync('widgets') it should invoke? ...

I thought... may be it make sense to define keys and promises for them in one place, like..

reduxAsyncConnect.init({
  widgets: ({helpers}) => helpers.client.get('/widget/load/param1/param2')
})

or something like this... and then use them in components, like:

@asyncConnect([{
  key: 'widgets',
  deferred: true,
  shouldUpdate: ...
}])

in this case function loadAsync('widgets') would definitely make sense..

from redux-async-connect.

@sars I was running under the impression that the keys would be/are unique. In that sense, a single key would always map to a single route/action.
