Why can't I call this.state in my redux reducer? - reactjs

Question

I made a reducer that fetches admins, and I want it to display certain admins when I call it in my reducer but I am getting Undefined.
I am still very new to redux so apologies for my mistakes.
I tried to include all the relevant folders:
App.js
import React, { Component } from 'react';
import { connect } from 'react-redux';
import * as actions from '../store/actions';
class App extends Component {
async componentDidMount() {
fetch(constants.adminUrl + '/admins/data', {
method: 'GET'
}).then((res) => {
return res.json()
}).then(async (res) => {
this.props.setAdminsInColumns(res.admins)
}).catch((error) => {
toast.error(error.message)
})
}
render() {
return (
{/* SOME CODE */}
);
}
}
let app = connect(null, actions)(App);
export default app;
columnsReducer.js
import { FETCH_ADMINS } from '../actions/types'
import { Link } from 'react-router-dom'
import constants from '../../static/global/index'
import React from 'react';
import { toast } from 'react-toastify'
const initialState = {
admins: [],
{
Header: "Responsible",
accessor: "responsibleAdmin",
style: { textAlign: "center" },
// Place where I want to fetch certain admins and get undefined
Cell: props => <span>{props.value && this.state.admins.name ? this.state.admins.find(admin => admin.id === props.value).name : props.value}</span>
}
}
export default function (state = initialState, action) {
switch (action.type) {
case FETCH_ADMINS:
return { ...state, admins: action.admins}
default:
return state
}
}
index.js
import { FETCH_ADMINS } from "./types"
/**
* starts loader for setting admin
*/
export const setAdminsInColumns = (admins) => async dispatch => {
dispatch({ type: FETCH_ADMINS, admins })
}
types.js
export const FETCH_ADMINS = 'fetch_admins'
When I console.log(action.admins) inside the switch case FETCH_ADMINS in the columnsReducer.js file, I can see all the admin information I want, is there a way to make the state global in the columnsReducer.js file so I can read it?
Any help is appreciated!

Answer 1

use mapStateToProps in the connect method. like below
let mapStateToProps = (state)=>{
return {
admins :[yourcolumnsReducer].admins
}
}
let app = connect(mapStateToProps, actions)(App);
//you can use this.props.admins inside your component
MapStateToProps reference
