This question already has an answer here:
- How does this object method definition work without the “function” keyword? 2 answers
I'm having trouble understanding these javascript syntaxes. In the block of code below, on the second line. The square bracket is quickly followed by a round bracket or parentheses which I suspected is used to get arguments. I do not understand how this two is being chained to form an expression and what it means.
export const recipeCount = createReducer(0, {
[types.ADD_RECIPE](state, action){
return state + 1;
}
});
Also on this line, the connect method takes in two arguments, (state) => {return {}}
and mapDispatchToProps
. Then it is quickly follwed by () with an argument. At first, i though it was some of object casting in java but that doesn't make sense.
export default connect((state) => {return {}}, mapDispatchToProps)(AppContainer);
The code executes fine and produces expected result. I just don't understand what is going on. Pls Help, would be glad to get answersre accompanied with links to pages i can read for better understanding. Thanks.
