The action creator is called, but the action is not dispatched.

Question

I have a component that successfully uses the onSubmit reduction form to invoke the action creator. The creator makes an ajax call, but no action is sent to save it to the repository. I should have something spoiled in the posting of the reaction-reduct and the reduct form, possibly in the binding of the creator of the action. I read everything I found on Google, but still cannot find the problem. Any ideas? (I included the promise of neutralization to handle the promise of the request, but he never makes it this far)

import React from 'react';
import { Field, reduxForm } from 'redux-form';
import validate from '../utils/add_person_validation';
import { connect } from 'react-redux';
import { bindActionCreators } from 'redux';
import { addPersonResponseAction } from '../actions/index';
import renderField from '../components/render_input_field';

// call the action creator - this part succeeds 
const doSubmit = function(values) {
  addPersonResponseAction(values);
};


let AddPersonContainer = (props) => {
  const {
    handleSubmit,
    pristine,
    reset,
    submitting
  } = props;


  return (
    <div className="row">
      <form onSubmit={handleSubmit(doSubmit)} >
          <div className="col-sm-6">
              <fieldset>
                <legend>Person Info</legend>
                <div className="form-group">
                  <Field name="personFirstName" component={renderField} type="text" label="First Name" className="form-control" />
                  <Field name="personLastName" component={renderField} type="text" label="Last Name" className="form-control" />
                  <Field name="birthday" component={renderField} type="date" label="Birthday" className="form-control" />
                  <Field name="group" component={renderField} type="text" label="Group" className="form-control" />
                </div>
              </fieldset>
          </div>
          <div className="form-buttons-container">
            <button className="btn btn-default form-button" type="submit" disabled={pristine || submitting}>Submit</button>
            <button className="btn btn-default form-button" type="button" disabled={pristine || submitting} onClick={reset}>Clear Values</button>
          </div>
      </form>
    </div> 
  );
};


const mapStateToProps = function({ addPersonResponse }) {
  return { addPersonResponse };
};

const mapDispatchToProps = function(dispatch) {
  return bindActionCreators( {addPersonResponseAction}, dispatch);
};

const form = reduxForm({ form: 'addPerson', validate: validate });

AddPersonContainer = connect(mapStateToProps, mapDispatchToProps)(form(AddPersonContainer));

export default AddPersonContainer;

/********************************************

import axios from 'axios';

export const ADD_PERSON_RESPONSE = 'ADD_PERSON_RESPONSE';

export const addPersonResponseAction = (data) => {

  const postURL = 'http://some-url/addperson';
  const request = axios.post(postURL, { data });

  return {
    type: ADD_PERSON_RESPONSE,
    payload: request
  };

};

Redux mapDispatchToProps - .

// call the action creator - this part succeeds 
const doSubmit = function(values) {
  addPersonResponseAction(values);    <------ Redux does not know anything about this
};

Try:

let AddPersonContainer = (props) => {
  const {
    handleSubmit,
    pristine,
    reset,
    submitting
  } = props;

  const doSubmit = function(values) {
    props.addPersonResponseAction(values);  <----- Try this
  }

  return (
    <div className="row">
      <form onSubmit={handleSubmit(doSubmit)} >
          <div className="col-sm-6">
              <fieldset>
                <legend>Person Info</legend>
                <div className="form-group">
                  <Field name="personFirstName" component={renderField} type="text" label="First Name" className="form-control" />
                  <Field name="personLastName" component={renderField} type="text" label="Last Name" className="form-control" />
                  <Field name="birthday" component={renderField} type="date" label="Birthday" className="form-control" />
                  <Field name="group" component={renderField} type="text" label="Group" className="form-control" />
                </div>
              </fieldset>
          </div>
          <div className="form-buttons-container">
            <button className="btn btn-default form-button" type="submit" disabled={pristine || submitting}>Submit</button>
            <button className="btn btn-default form-button" type="button" disabled={pristine || submitting} onClick={reset}>Clear Values</button>
          </div>
      </form>
    </div> 
  );
};
