Troubleshooting

An event does nothing

Check the current snapshot and transitions defined for that state. Events without matching transitions are ignored.

Context did not update

Return the next context from the transition function. Do not mutate context and return nothing.

An async request keeps running

Pass the signal from createAsyncLogic(...) to the async API.

A restored actor starts from the beginning

Pass the persisted snapshot as the snapshot option before calling start().

A nested state comparison fails

Use snapshot.matches(...) instead of comparing snapshot.value to a string.

TypeScript accepts the wrong event

Define event schemas and send event objects. The actor.trigger helpers are generated from those schemas.
