How to listen for specific property changes in Redux store after an action is dispatched

by

You may use Redux’s mapStateToProps and connect with React’s componentDidUpdate(prevProps, prevState, snapshot) hook.

So basically your code could look like this:

const mapStateToProps = (state) => ({ 
   specificProperty: state.specificProperty,
   // any props you need else
});

class YourComponent extends React.Component {
    render() {
      // render your component  
    }

    componentDidUpdate(prevProps, prevState, snapshot) {
        if (prevProps.specificProperty !== this.props.specificProperty) {
            // Do whatever you want
        }
    }
}

YourComponent = connect(mapStateToProps)(YourComponent);
