Features of Synchronous Action Creators

Synchronous Action Creators:

Asynchronous Action Creators:

  • Immediate dispatch: Actions are dispatched instantly upon calling the action creator function.
  • Simple state changes: Suitable for handling simple state modifications.
  • No external dependencies: Synchronous actions do not rely on external data fetching or asynchronous operations.
  • Predictable flow: Execution of synchronous actions follows a easy flow, that makes the debugging easier.
  • Limited complexity: Ideal for scenarios where state updates are predictable and do not involve complex computations.

Example: In this sample code there is a flow of synchronous action creator to understand.

Javascript




// Redux setup
import { createStore } from 'redux';
 
// Initial state
const initialState = {
    counter: 0
};
 
// Reducer
const reducer = (state = initialState, action) => {
    switch (action.type) {
        case 'INCREMENT_COUNTER':
            return {
                ...state,
                counter: state.counter + 1
            };
        default:
            return state;
    }
};
 
// Create Redux store
const store = createStore(reducer);
 
// Synchronous action creator
const incrementCounter = () => ({
    type: 'INCREMENT_COUNTER'
});
 
// Dispatch the action
store.dispatch(incrementCounter());
 
// Check the updated state
console.log(store.getState()); // Output: { counter: 1 }
 






                        









													
													
												

												
											

											
											

												
What is the difference between synchronous and asynchronous action creators?

												
												

													
													
In web development, Redux has become very popular for managing application state. Action creators play an important role in Redux, which helps the dispatching of actions to update the state.

														Differences Between Synchronous and Asynchronous Action Creators:

													

														Asynchronous behavior: Actions are dispatched asynchronously, that allows for non-blocking execution.
External data fetching: Typically used for fetching data from APIs or performing other asynchronous operations.
Complex state updates: Suitable for scenarios where state changes involve complex computations or asynchronous operations.
Middleware integration: Often used with middleware like Redux Thunk or Redux Saga to handle asynchronous actions seamlessly.
Enhanced scalability: Supports scalable application architectures by enabling efficient handling of asynchronous operations without blocking the main thread....
