Asynchronous Actions

I already wrote the code below, but it don’t pass the last requirement. I searched the forum, and I found that the correct code is same like mine, why it didn’t work?

I read about the Middleware and dispatch . I still don’t know the workflow from dispatch and Middleware.

Is it action -> dispatch -> Miidleware-> reducer?



const REQUESTING_DATA = ‘REQUESTING_DATA’
const RECEIVED_DATA = ‘RECEIVED_DATA’

const requestingData = () => { return {type: REQUESTING_DATA} }
const receivedData = (data) => { return {type: RECEIVED_DATA, users: data.users} }

const handleAsync = () => {
return function(dispatch) {
// dispatch request action here
dispatch(requestingData);
setTimeout(function() {
let data = {
users: [‘Jeff’, ‘William’, ‘Alice’]
};
// dispatch received data action here
dispatch(receivedData(data));
}, 2500);
}
};

const defaultState = {
fetching: false,
users: []
};

const asyncDataReducer = (state = defaultState, action) => {
switch(action.type) {
case REQUESTING_DATA:
return {
fetching: true,
users: []
}
case RECEIVED_DATA:
return {
fetching: false,
users: action.users
}
default:
return state;
}
};

const store = Redux.createStore(
asyncDataReducer,
Redux.applyMiddleware(ReduxThunk.default)
);

requestingData is a function. please check your code again.

Hope you solved it already.
