Redux Integration

To handle your app's navigation state in redux, you can pass your own navigation prop to a navigator. Your navigation prop must provide the current state, as well as access to a dispatcher to handle navigation options.

With redux, your app's state is defined by a reducer. Each navigation router effectively has a reducer, called getStateForAction. The following is a minimal example of how you might use navigators within a redux application:

const AppNavigator = StackNavigator(AppRouteConfigs);

const appReducer = combineReducers({
  nav: (state, action) => (
    AppNavigator.router.getStateForAction(action, state)
  ),
  ...
});

@connect(state => ({
  nav: state.nav,
}))
class AppWithNavigationState extends React.Component {
  render() {
    return (
      <AppNavigator navigation={addNavigationHelpers({
        dispatch: this.props.dispatch,
        state: this.props.nav,
      })} />
    );
  }
}

const store = createStore(appReducer);

class App extends React.Component {
  render() {
    return (
      <Provider store={store}>
        <AppWithNavigationState />
      </Provider>
    );
  }
}

Now, your navigation state is stored with redux, and you can fire navigation actions using redux.

When a navigator is given a navigation prop, it relinquishes control of the state. So you are now responsible for persisting state, handling deep linking, integrating the back button, etc.
