Example

npm install

npm run start

This is a striped down version of an example project for react-tiny-router for simplicity all things releated to react-tiny-router where removed! this exemple was the simplest i could make that reproduces the issue

The app

the app uses only 3 action creators: ./src/shared/redux/actions/someactions.js

setUser -> reduces to data.user

goTo -> reduces to data.path, with whatever path was passed in to this action creator

login -> calls database, on success sets the user on state with setUser, and calls goTo('/secure')

App.jsx @ ./src/shared/components/App.jsx will just return a component based on state.data.path

export default class App extends React.Component {
    render() {
        const path = this.props.data.path;
        if (path === '/secure')
            return <Secure/>;
        if (path === '/login')
            return <Login/>;
        return <Home/>
    }
}

The middleware

if data.user is not set and the path is to '/secure' set path to '/login'

   if (action.type === 'GO_TO'){ 
        var path = action.path;
        const isSecurePlace = (path === '/secure');
        const loggedIn = getState().data.user;
        if (path === '/login') //if user wants to login thats ok;
            return next(action);
        if (isSecurePlace && !loggedIn){ //user did not login redirect
            dispatch(actions.goTo('/login'));
              return;
          }
       return next(action);
  }
