Redux Saga - group similar (but not all) actions into takeLeading / takeLatest












1















I am currently using redux-saga on a project and I want to use it to also prevent requesting the same resource multiple times.



At the moment I have multiple components on the same page requesting a resource (i.e. dispatch {types: "REQUEST_POST_COMMENTS", postId: <postIdHere>})



And I have this saga:



export function* loadPostComments() {
yield takeLatest("REQUEST_POST_COMMENTS", loadPostComments);
}



My page dispatches the following actions at the same time:




  • {types: "REQUEST_POST_COMMENTS", postId: 123}

  • {types: "REQUEST_POST_COMMENTS", postId: 321}

  • {types: "REQUEST_POST_COMMENTS", postId: 123}


And my goal is to for loadPostComments to be called twice, once for post 123 and one for post 321.



I have switched to takeLeading in the beta version - but this will only call loadPostComments once.



Is there any way to define a saga using a pattern but takeLatest to group them by the action.type value? Or any way of achieving something similar?

          My solution



          You have to save encountered postIds and to them after:



          function* watchRequestPostComments() {
          const encounteredPostIds = new Set()

          while(true) {
          const { postId } = yield take('REQUEST_POST_COMMENTS')
          if (!encounteredPostIds.has(postId) {
          yield fork(loadPostComments, postId)
          }
          encounteredPostIds.add(postId)
          }
          }


          Explanation



          There doesn't seem to exist a particular redux-saga-esque way of doing this. In any case, you have to track these IDs.



          I have answered a similar question about throttling requests.



          P.S.: This looks like an endless recursion. Must be an unintentional name clash:



          export function* loadPostComments() {
          yield takeLatest("REQUEST_POST_COMMENTS", loadPostComments)
          }

          • Thank you - this seems to do the trick. The endless recursion is indeed due to an unintentional name clash while writing the question :)
