ReduxRouterEngine Error: TypeError: Cannot read property 'then' of undefined

Question

I'm trying to set the initial state of my electrode app with an http call to another API. I wrote getLatestProducts function that makes the http request and returns a promise that resolves when the request has data with no errors. I know that I have to return a promise from createReduxStore function but I don't know where should I resolve the promise to make this error disappear.

My code:

import ReduxRouterEngine from "electrode-redux-router-engine";
import {routes} from "../../client/routes";
import {createStore} from "redux";
import rootReducer from "../../client/reducers";
import util from "util";
import http from "http";

const Promise = require("bluebird");
const getLatestProducts = function(count){
	const options = {
		host: "127.0.0.1",
		port: 4000,
		path: '/products/latest/'+count,
		method:'GET',
		header:{
			'Content-Type':'application/json'
		}
	};
	return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
		http.get(options, (response) => {
			var body = "";
			var errors = "";
			response.on("data", function(chunk){
				body += chunk;
			});
			response.on("errors", function(error){
				errors = error.message;
				return reject(errors);
			});
			response.on("end", function(){
				return resolve(body);
			});
		})
	});
}
    function createReduxStore(req, match) { // eslint-disable-line
let initialState;
	getLatestProducts("12")
	.then((result) => {
		initialState = {
			latestProducts: {products:result, error:null, loading:false}
		};
		return result;
	})
	.then(() => {
		const store = createStore(rootReducer, initialState);
		return Promise.resolve(store);	
	})
	.catch((error) => {
		console.log(error);
		return Promise.reject(error);
	})
	
}

module.exports = (req) => {
  const app = req.server && req.server.app || req.app;
  if (!app.routesEngine) {
    app.routesEngine = new ReduxRouterEngine({routes, createReduxStore});
  }

  return app.routesEngine.render(req);
};

I could solve the problem. I have to return a new Promise instance and resolve/reject based on the other function results. so my code for createReduxStore may look like:

function createReduxStore(req, match) { // eslint-disable-line
    let initialState;
    return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
        getLatestProducts("12")
        .then((result) => {
            initialState = {
                latestProducts: {products:result, error:null, loading:false}
            };
            const store = createStore(rootReducer, initialState);
            resolve(store);
        })
    })
    .catch((error) => {
        console.log(error);
        reject(error);
    })

}
