Releases: reduxjs/redux-toolkit
v1.2.2
This releases fixes our dev UMD build, and improves type inference for dispatch
based on provided middleware.
Changes
Dispatch and Middleware Typings
The Redux core types will modify the type of dispatch
based on provided middleware, allowing it to accept parameters other than action objects and return other values. The redux-thunk
middleware is an example of this.
RTK's configureStore
and getDefaultMiddleware
were not correctly picking up the types of the middleware, and were always assuming that redux-thunk
was enabled at the type level even if the thunk middleware had been disabled.
This has been fixed, and the store should now correctly pick up the types of both the default and user-provided middleware.
Additional Type Re-Exports
RTK now re-exports the ThunkAction
type from redux-thunk
, and the Draft
type from immer
.
Dev UMD fixes
Our dev UMD build was broken due to the recent build configuration changes, and that has now been fixed. This means the sandbox in the Basic Tutorial should be working again.
Changelog
v1.2.1
v1.2.0
This release rewrites the createAction
and createSlice
types to enable better user readability and reusability, and fixes an issue with the bundling and publishing of the immutable state invariant middleware.
(Note: this release was broken due to a missing TS type definition file. Please use v1.2.1 instead.)
Changes
Type Inference Readability Improvements
The type definitions for createAction
and createSlice
were primarily written using the TS type
keyword. The TS compiler and inference engine tries to "unwrap" those types, which meant that the inferred type for a variable like const test = createAction<number, 'test'>('test')
would be shown in an IDE tooltip like this:
WithTypeProperty<WithMatch<(<PT extends number>(payload: PT) => WithPayload<PT, Action<"test">>), "test", number, never, never>, "test">
That unwrapped type declaration is hard to read, and not very informative for app developers.
We've rewritten most of our types to use the interface
keyword instead. Now, that same variable's inferred type would be displayed as:
ActionCreatorWithPayload<number, "test">
This is more informative and easier to read.
Type Export Improvements
Several users had noted that the complexity of the type definitions for createSlice
made it impossible to write a higher-order or wrapper function in TypeScript that called createSlice
internally ( #276, #286). As part of the typings update, we've refactored the type declarations to expose some public types that can be used to correctly define the arguments that will be passed to createSlice
, and documented how to wrap createSlice
in the "Usage with TypeScript" docs page. We've also documented all of the types in the codebase.
Thanks to @phryneas for all the hard work on these type improvements!
Module Bundling Fixes
The build tooling setup for RTK tries to deal with several different use cases (dev vs prod, CJS vs ESM vs UMD modules, etc). There were problems with the build config that resulted in a require()
statement being included in the ESM build, and the UMD dev build was actually missing the immutable invariant middleware. The build tooling has been updated to fix those issues.
Changelog

type
tointerface
(@phryneas - #273) - Mock the console manually (@kevin940726 - #281)

v1.1.0
This release adds a utility function for better type safety with reducer object parameters, and fixes an issue with error message in the serializability check middleware.
Changes
Type-Safe Reducer Object Builder API
createReducer
accepts a plain object full of reducer functions as a parameter, where the keys are the action types that should be handled. While this works fine with plain JS, TypeScript is unable to infer the correct type for the action parameters in each reducer.
As an alternative, you may now pass a callback function to createReducer
that will be given a "builder" object that allows you to add reducers in a type-safe way based on the provided action types:
const increment = createAction<number, 'increment'>('increment')
const decrement = createAction<number, 'decrement'>('decrement')
createReducer(0, builder =>
builder
.addCase(increment, (state, action) => {
// action is inferred correctly here
})
.addCase(decrement, (state, action: PayloadAction<string>) => {
// this would error out
})
)
While this API is usable from plain JS, it has no real benefit there, and is primarily intended for use with TS.
The same API is also available for the extraReducers
argument of createSlice
. It is not necessary for the reducers
argument, as the action types are already being defined there.
Serialization Error Fixes
Error messages for the serialization check middleware were not correctly displaying the value. This has been fixed.
Docs Updates
Docusaurus v2
Our documentation site at https://redux-toolkit.js.org has been upgraded to use Docusaurus v2! This comes with a shiny new look and feel, and page loads are now even more Blazing Fast (TM).
Thanks to @endiliey, @yangshunz, @wgao19, and @ashakkk for all their hard work on the migration!
New "Usage with TypeScript" Page
We now have a new "Usage with TypeScript" docs page that has examples on how to correctly write and type usage of RTK.
Changelog
Code
- alternative callback-builder-style notation for actionsMap (@phryneas - #262)
- Inline values in error messages (@kevin940726 - #257)

v1.0.4: Redux Starter Kit is now Redux Toolkit!
As of v1.0.4, we've officially renamed this package from "Redux Starter Kit" to Redux Toolkit!
Please switch the installed package name from:
redux-starter-kit
to:
@reduxjs/toolkit
Read on for details.
Why A New Name?
The name "Redux Starter Kit" originated from the original discussion issue that started the project, which was titled "RFC: Redux Starter Kit". We originally published it as a personal scoped package during early development (@acemarke/redux-starter-kit
) for ease of management.
The plan was always to make it an official Redux-branded package. We had an extensive discussion of possible names. The redux-starter-kit
package name was already taken, but the owner donated it to us, and we decided to go with it.
The intent behind "Starter Kit" was that "this package is the fastest way to start a Redux project". Unfortunately, as RSK got closer to 1.0, it became apparent that the phrase "Starter Kit" was causing confusion. People told us that they assumed the package was a CLI project creation tool, a cloneable boilerplate, something that was only meant for beginners, or something you would outgrow.
Our goal is that this package should be the default standard way for users to write Redux logic. If people aren't willing to even look at it because of the word "Starter" in the name, then that needed to change.
We put up another naming discussion thread, and concluded that the best options were to A) publish it as a @reduxjs/
scoped package, and B) use the name "Toolkit".
So, the final result is a package name of "Redux Toolkit", published on NPM as @reduxjs/toolkit
, and abbrevated as RTK.
Our documentation is now published at https://redux-toolkit.js.org.
Migration
Update all dependencies and imports from redux-starter-kit
to @reduxjs/toolkit
, and update the dependency versions to 1.0.4. (There are no code changes from RSK 1.0.1 to RTK 1.0.4 - the new published versions are just README, package naming updates, and fixes for the build setup.)
The redux-starter-kit
package continues to work as-is as of v1.0.1. However, to encourage migration, we have deprecated all existing RSK versions, and will likely publish a new version of RSK that is empty and will enforce switching to @reduxjs/toolkit
.
v1.0.3
1.0.3
v1.0.1
This release includes a TS type bugfix for prepare callbacks, adds a new match
method for action creators, and re-exports additional functions from Redux.
Changes
The types for the recently added error
field in prepare callbacks were too loose, and that caused them to fall back to any
. This has been fixed.
There are cases when it is helpful to have a type guard to narrow action objects down to a known type, such as checking in a middleware. Generated action creators now have a actionCreator.match()
type guard function attached.
We were re-exporting some methods from the Redux core, but not all of them. All Redux exports are now re-exported, including bindActionCreators
.
Changelog
v1.0 Final!
Today I am extremely excited to announce that:
Redux Starter Kit 1.0 is now live!
To celebrate, I've put together a blog post that looks back at the history, inspirations, and development process that led us to this point:
Idiomatic Redux: Redux Starter Kit 1.0
Changes
This release contains only one new change: the ability to include an error
field from a prepare callback, to match the FSA standard.
Changelog
Credits and Thanks
I'd like to thank everyone who has been involved in Redux Starter Kit in any way. To highlight some of the key participants:
- @gaearon : the creator of Redux. Wouldn't have any of this without him.
- @modernserf: wrote the original suggestion that inspired RSK.
- @timdorr : wrote the RFC: Redux Starter Kit issue that served as the springboard for actually getting RSK started
- @hswolff : helped talk through the initial list of features
- @nickmccurdy : implemented almost all of the initial build tooling and several key pieces of initial functionality
- @shotaK: donated the
redux-starter-kit
package name on NPM - @neurosnap : ported
createSlice
from Autodux, and donated his implementation after writing it as a separate package - @denisw: ported RSK to TypeScript, and valuable suggestions on
createSlice
- @Dudeonyx , @Jessidhia: plenty of TS advice
- @phryneas : implemented multiple new features, improved our TS types, and coached me through starting to understand how some of this complex types stuff actually works :)
- @RichiCoder1 : ported our build setup to TSDX
Thank you so much to all of you, and everyone else who has contributed!
v0.9.1
The switch to TSDX accidentally dropped the re-export of types like Action
from Redux.
Changelog
- Fix broken re-export of Redux types d70dc31
v0.9.0
This release contains only build tooling changes and package updates. We've switched our build setup from a homegrown Rollup config to use TSDX instead. We're also running CI tests against multiple versions of TypeScript to try to prevent any future type changes that might affect older versions.
As part of the TSDX changes, the published package now contains the types in a single combined index.d.ts
file instead of separate files, which may work better in certain build tooling setups.
In the process, we've also updated Immer from 2.1.5 to 4.0.1. This primarily adds auto-freezing of all state objects in development, but shouldn't have any actual changes for your code. See the Immer release notes for more details.
Barring any new issues, this will likely be the last point release before 1.0 release candidates in the next couple days.
Changelog
- chore(build): swap in tsdx (@RichiCoder1, @phryneas, @markerikson - #212)
- Use TypeScript 3.6 in development (@nickmccurdy - #218)
- Test with multiple TypeScript minor versions in CI (@nickmccurdy - #217)
