Is there any way to change states outside component? about overmind HOT 10 CLOSED

@p32929 Hi! Maybe you should asked this question on the discord channel.
I think it belongs there as it's a support question, not an issue. And there're much more folks out there which can help you.
Christian also frequently answers questions over there.

Closing this as it looks resolved, but please pick back up in the discord channel if more assistance needed.

You might want to consider flipping it around - instead of the presentation layer (React) creating a wireup between your file and overmind actions, why not have the action reference the file and do it within the action?

So addCounter() calls SomeClass.changeCounter - instead of the other way around. Or, if you really need changeCounter to be called like this, why not set it up as an action so it can handle itself?

It's easy to forget that actions can sit across multiple files and be spread into the same namespace... i.e.

import { myActions } from 'file1'
import * as otherActions from 'file2'

const overmind = createOvermind({state, actions: {...myactions, ...otherActions}); etc.

Far from clean, but still better than handing the view layer cross-wire stuff...

Pardon my ignorance, but would you mind writing a short example? or link any project source code? Thanks a million @grandevel

Hi there 😄

I am a little bit unsure on how you want to organize this. The pattern of using a class with static methods where you pass in a function to call it... not sure why you do that? 🤔

It seems like you have a concept of: App Logic (Overmind) <> Components <> App Logic (Custom classes)

While you should be able to clean this up just having: App Logic (Overmind) <> Components?

So not calling actions via this additional layer of custom classes?

So, to explain, what I'm looking for, I created this repo: https://github.com/p32929/react-typescript-overmind-counter-example

I want to change states here: https://github.com/p32929/react-typescript-overmind-counter-example/blob/139ca67d8137f3de254c7c21b58c0c2183d81166/src/Others/Foo.ts#L3

Without needing to pass down the actions from the components. and want to change states on the button clicks: https://github.com/p32929/react-typescript-overmind-counter-example/blob/139ca67d8137f3de254c7c21b58c0c2183d81166/src/Components/Counter.tsx#L31

Is there any way to do it?
Thanks
