@dbrans The initial dispatch function in applyMiddleware is used on line 41 within the body of the wrapped dispatch (i.e. next) function passed to each middleware.

@dlwalsh, result is created inside the mapValues function and passed to reduce as initial value (also called an accumulator). Because it’s created inside mapValues, it can be mutated and mapValues would still be a pure function.

@dlwalsh It’s algorithmic complexity. The “purer” version is O(n²) where the original version is O(n), so it’s not the same as using for loops vs Array#reduce. Here’s a benchmark:

function mapValues1(obj, fn) {
  return Object.keys(obj).reduce((result, key) => {
    result[key] = fn(obj[key], key);
    return result;
  }, {});
}

function mapValues2(obj, fn) {
  return Object.keys(obj).reduce((result, key) => (
    Object.assign({}, result, {
      [key]: fn(obj[key], key)
    })
  ), {});
}

var obj = { }
for (var i = 0; i < 10000; i ++) obj[i] = i

var mapper = x => x * x

console.time('mapValues1')
var result1 = mapValues1(obj, mapper)
console.timeEnd('mapValues1')

console.time('mapValues2')
var result2 = mapValues2(obj, mapper)
console.timeEnd('mapValues2')

// Ensure result is correct :)
require('assert').equal(result1[100], 10000)
require('assert').deepEqual(result1, result2)

Result:

mapValues1: 7.764ms
mapValues2: 10896.908ms

You can see that it takes 10 seconds to map a 10000-key object if you create a new object every time. Both functions are equally pure as @CrocoDillon said, since all the mutations happen inside the function.

Well tested @dtinth, but it's basically the Object.assign creates a new object(with result and matches the key) each iteration, and the mapValues1 just add as a key in the resultant object.

Pure Genius!

I did the same for my Redux Course to explain how really Redux works and what is the concept. I notice that in a lot of courses about Redux, teachers miss the importance of selectors...

Artistic

It's possible to slim it down even further by removing the isDispatching checks! Then it would be < 90 lines!

Thanks Dan. Do we have similar one for React-Redux. Trying to understand the connect method for adding features like "Resolve data before mounting the container".

I would love to watch a youtube video going over in detail every line of this code.

Awesome. Simple but not simpler 👍

Cool

Haters don't hate you know it's genius... #imnotworthy#

@sabha you probably found it already, but for those who com after, here is connect explained: https://gist.github.com/gaearon/1d19088790e70ac32ea636c025ba424e

Amazingly beautiful code 👍

I'm heavily breathing right now. This is just pure awesomeness!

It's 2018. Is it too late for me to say 'cool'?

Wow!

4 years later...
I'm curious why you use .slice on this line
listeners.slice().forEach(listener => listener());

Why do we need a new array here?

@sag1v while that forEach is a blocking operation it doesn't guarantee that a listener() call wouldn't remove a original listener from the listeners array so by copying the list you won't get weird results. 2nd caveat from here: https://redux.js.org/api/store#subscribe.

@sag1v found the possible reason, please read the 2nd caveat here https://redux.js.org/api/store#subscribe

@raynerpupo For some reason i missed your comments, thanks :)

For other readers, this code snippet can demonstrate what happens if you don't use .slice to create a "snapshot" of the array.
Basically if a listener removes itself from the array, other listeners might not run (due to mutation).

let arr = [func1, func2];
function func1(){
  arr.splice(0, 1) // func1 removes itself from the array
  console.log(1)
}
function func2(){
  console.log(2)
}
arr
//.slice() // if we don't slice here, func2 wont run
.forEach(fn => fn())

// logs: 1

2020, starting to learn redux, and got one confusion for this code snippet:

In the createStore function, there should be a third option argument enhancer right? I checked the redux source code and the createStore function might look this:

function createStore(reducer, preloadedState, enhancer) {
  if (typeof preloadedState === 'function' && typeof enhancer === 'undefined') {
    enhancer = preloadedState
    preloadedState = undefined
  }

  if (typeof enhancer !== 'undefined') {
    if (typeof enhancer !== 'function') {
      throw new Error('Expected the enhancer to be a function.')
    }

    return enhancer(createStore)(reducer, preloadedState)
  }

  // ... dispatch, subscribe, getState, replaceReducer, 
}

In this case we can then pass the applyMiddleware to the createStore function:

const store = createStore(
  rootReducer,
  applyMiddleware(
    thunk,
    logger,
  )

Not sure if my thoughts are reasonable, could someone correct me please?

Could u please share some link to your course? is it available somewhere?
