Access state meta in an action V5

[cliffordp2]

Hi,

I need to access the meta of a state at entry/exit points in an action. Does the approach shared below look good or is there a better alternative to this?

Thanks.

const { createActor, setup } = require('xstate');

const action = (_, params) => {
  // access state meta
  const stateMeta = _.self.src.config.states[params.id].meta;
  console.log(stateMeta);
};

const machine = {
  id: 'test',
  initial: 'state1',
  states: {
    state1: {
      id: 'state1',
      entry: [{ type: 'action', params: { id: 'state1' } }],
      on: {
        NEXT: 'state2'
      },
      meta: {
        param1: 'some value'
      }
    },
    state2: {
      id: 'state2',
      entry: [{ type: 'action', params: { id: 'state2' } }],
      meta: {
        param2: 'some other value'
      }
    }
  }
};

const activeMachine = setup({
  actions: { action }
}).createMachine(machine);

const actor = createActor(activeMachine, {});

actor.start();
actor.send({ type: 'NEXT' });
