Redux can I use one action type in separate reducers? -

i have situation in redux application have 3 separate reducers handle fetching of data api. example of 1 of reducers be:

const initial_state = {   data: [],   loading: false,   error: '' };  export default (state = initial_state, action) => {   switch (action.type) {     case get_all_orders_start:       return {         ...state,         loading: true       };     case get_all_orders_success:       return {         ...state,         allorders: action.payload,         loading: false       };     case get_all_orders_fail:       return {         ...state,         loading: false,         error: action.payload       };     default:       return state;   } }; 

note loading , error states, these identical in each current reducer , subsequent reducers write involve fetching data api.

i add further reducer used loading , error pieces of state. other 3 store data.

this give me:

data reducers x 3

const initial_state = {   data: []   // other state in future };  export default (state = initial_state, action) => {   switch (action.type) {     case get_all_orders_success:       return {         ...state,         allorders: action.payload       };     default:       return state;   } }; 

loading / error reducer (handles loading / error entire app)

const initial_state = {   loading: false,   error: '' };  export default (state = initial_state, action) => {   switch (action.type) {     case get_all_orders_start:       return {         ...state,         loading: true       };     case get_all_orders_success:       return {         ...state,         loading: false       };     case get_all_orders_fail:       return {         ...state,         loading: false,         error: action.payload       };     default:       return state;   } }; 

as can see means get_all_order_success action type used in 2 separate reducers. question is, ok? or go against convention?

many in advance.

i think that's fine. there no place states actions , reducers have 1:1 mapping. in fact, creator of redux explicitly says there no relation between them, many reducers can react single actions, single reducer can react multiple actions.

i think says best: https://github.com/reduxible/reduxible/issues/8

relevant so: redux: why not put actions , reducer in same file?
