onInitializeOvermind

If you need to run logic as the application initializes you can use the onInitializeOvermind action. This action receives the application instance as the input value. You can do whatever you want here. Set initial state, run an action, configure a router etc.

overmind/actions.js

export const onInitializeOvermind = async ({
  state,
  actions,
  effects
}, overmind) => {
  const initialData = await effects.api.getInitialData()
  state.initialData = initialData
}

overmind/index.js

import { state } from './state'
import * as actions from './actions'

export const config = {
  state,
  actions
}
