How to access getState in redux toolkit in typescript?-CodePudding

I have an createAsyncThunk operation and want to access getState inside the toolkit. I am not sure about how to cast getState type in typescript:

export const getInitialDatapoints = createAsyncThunk(
  'userSlice/getInitDatapoints',
  async (args, { getState as AppState }) => {
    const geoData = await getLocationData();
    const googleData = getState().userSlice;
    const response = await updateUserData(1);
    return response.data;
  }
);

where AppStore is:

export type AppState = ReturnType<typeof store.getState>;

I get this error:

Property 'AppState' does not exist on type 'GetThunkAPI<{}>'

Can anyone help in solving this issue?

CodePudding user response：

You can't cast types while destructuring objects. Also, you need to call getState before you can cast it to AppState.

You can do this instead:

const getInitialDatapoints = createAsyncThunk(
        "userSlice/getInitDatapoints",
        // you could also just stick to { getState }; call and
        // cast it in the line below.
        async (args, api) => {
            const appState = api.getState() as AppState
            const geoData = await getLocationData();
            const googleData = appState.userSlice;
            const response = await updateUserData(1);
            return response.data;
        }
    );
