does redux-actions support prefixing types?

[tugorez]

Hi everyone, I'm trying to figure out if something like this is currently possible with redux-actions:

const prefix = 'some_random_prefix';
const type1 = 'SOME_RANDOM_TYPE_1';
const type2 = 'SOME_RANDOM_TYPE_2';
const type3 = 'SOME_RANDOM_TYPE_3';
const {
  someRandomType1,
  someRandomType2,
  someRandomType3,
} = createActions(
  { prefix },
  type1,
  type2,
  type3,
);
expect(someRandomType1().type).toEqual(`${prefix}/${type1}`);
expect(someRandomType2().type).toEqual(`${prefix}/${type2}`);
expect(someRandomType3().type).toEqual(`${prefix}/${type3}`);

and if not, might i know why? Thank you for your time :)

For example, react-boilerplate endorses the fact of prefixing types to prevent unwanted behavior in reducers.

Take a look at #159. I'll get this in tomorrow.

My main concern is about being able to declare more than one action-creator with the same name and not being worried about unexpected behaviour because all of them will create actions with the same type and all those actions will be catched by many reducers (unintendedly).

@yangmillstheory I did a module that wraps createAction ( I just did it for fun, It is really limited and just works in the case you use createActions with literal types).
If there is something I could help you with, please tell me.

Sorry for my bad english.

No problem. See this comment: #159 (comment)
