I am building a React Native app, mainly for verifying tickets, to be used by event administrators. The back-end is served by a Laravel app with a working OAuth2-server. I have a working login against that server but now I need to store the access token, to request data, such as events, and to verify if a ticket is matched for a given event.
I'm trying to implement Redux to store the access token etc. The login form I have updates the store via actions correctly, but I can't get it to work with the access token.
Here is the login screen:
import React, { Component } from 'react';
import { Text, View, TextInput, Button } from 'react-native';
import { connect } from 'react-redux'
import StringifyBody from './../lib/oauth2/StringifyBody'
import { login, storeTokens } from '../redux/actions/auth.js'
class Login extends Component {
constructor (props) {
super(props);
this.state = {
route: 'Login',
loading: false,
email: '',
password: '',
accessToken: '',
};
}
handleClick (e) {
e.preventDefault();
return new Promise(function(resolve, reject) {
var data = StringifyBody(this.state.password, this.state.email)
// XHR settings
var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest()
xhr.withCredentials = true
xhr.onerror = function() {
reject(Error('There was a network error.'))
}
xhr.open("POST", "http://192.168.0.141/oauth/access_token")
xhr.setRequestHeader("content-type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded")
xhr.send(data)
xhr.onloadend = function() {
if (xhr.status === 200) {
var parsedJson = JSON.parse(xhr.response)
responseArray = []
for(var i in parsedJson) {
responseArray.push([parsedJson [i]])
}
// assign values to appropriate variables
let accessToken = responseArray[0];
console.log('access token is: ' + accessToken)
accessToken => this.setState({ access_token: accessToken })
this.props.tokenStore(this.state.accessToken) // This doesn't work: "cannot read property 'tokenStore' of undefined"
resolve(xhr.response)
} else {
reject(Error('Whoops! something went wrong. Error: ' + xhr.statusText))
}
}
})
.done(() => {
this.props.onLogin(this.state.email, this.state.password); // This works
})
}
render() {
return (
<View style={{padding: 20}}>
<Text style={{fontSize: 27}}>{this.state.route}</Text>
<TextInput
placeholder='Email'
autoCapitalize='none'
autoCorrect={false}
keyboardType='email-address'
value={this.state.email}
onChangeText={(value) => this.setState({ email: value })} />
<TextInput
placeholder='Password'
autoCapitalize='none'
autoCorrect={false}
secureTextEntry={true}
value={this.state.password}
onChangeText={(value) => this.setState({ password: value })} />
<View style={{margin: 7}}/>
<Button onPress={(e) => this.handleClick(e)} title={this.state.route}/>
</View>
);
}
}
const mapStateToProps = state => {
return {
isLoggedIn: state.auth.isLoggedIn,
access_token: state.auth.access_token,
}
}
const mapDispatchToProps = (dispatch) => {
return {
onLogin: (email, password) => { dispatch(login(email, password)); },
tokenStore: (accessToken) => { dispatch(storeTokens(accessToken)) },
}
}
export default connect(mapStateToProps, mapDispatchToProps)(Login);
Redux actions:
export const login = (email, password) => {
return {
type: 'LOGIN',
email: email,
password: password
};
};
export const logout = () => {
return {
type: 'LOGOUT'
};
};
export const storeTokens = () => {
return {
type: 'STORE_TOKENS',
access_token: accessToken,
}
}
And finally the reducers:
const defaultState = {
isLoggedIn: false,
email: '',
password: '',
access_token: '',
};
export default function reducer(state = defaultState, action) {
switch (action.type) {
case 'LOGIN':
return Object.assign({}, state, {
isLoggedIn: true,
email: action.email,
password: action.password
});
case 'LOGOUT':
return Object.assign({}, state, {
isLoggedIn: false,
email: '',
password: ''
});
case 'STORE_TOKENS':
return Object.assign({}, state, {
access_token: action.accessToken,
})
default:
return state;
}
}
I've also tried passing the data to this.props.storeTokens (the actual action) in a componentDidMount() which gives me the error undefined is not a function (evaluating 'this.props.storeTokens()') componentDidMount Login.js:57:8
My question then is: How do I store the variable I get from my XHR POST in the redux store? Why is this.props.tokenStore and this.props.storeToken not defined?
