Is it possible to manipulate and update store data directly in our class or functions without dispatching actions?

Question

I had implemented redux in my react-native application, on button click I had dispatched method in mapDispatchToProps and called API in action method directly and updated the store in the reducer with API response and retrieved the data from the redux store in mapStateToProps. it works fine.

We can retrieve the data from the redux store in any of our class it works, But Can we update or delete store value in redux directly from our class without dispatching actions in mapDispatchToProps.

Is it possible to manipulate and update store data directly in our class or functions?

Answer 1

No. The only way you can cause state updates in a Redux app is to dispatch actions to the store.
