Dispatch a redux action from an external javascript module

[rpnna]

Hi guys,
I'm working on a react/redux application, which makes use of an external module (written in plain javascript):

module.exports = {
    ...
    // Some functions here..
    someFunction () {
        dispatch(setSomething());
    }
    ...
};

I need to dispatch an action on the existing store, previously built and linked to the React application.
What's the best way?

Thank you

This is just JavaScript, so the answer is the same as with any JavaScript code.
If you need a module to have access to a function, pass that function to that module.

module.exports = {
  someFunction (dispatch) {
    dispatch(setSomething());
  }
};

or

module.exports = function (dispatch) {
  return {
    someFunction () {
      dispatch(setSomething());
    }
  }
};

Finally, you can (if you really want) put a store in a separate module as a singleton, but this makes testing and universal apps considerably harder.
