How to trigger action on route change ?

[grustamli]

I have a global store which holds list of messages. I'd like to clear the messages when route changes.

How can I achieve this? I checked createRouteAction but it seems it is not automatically called when navigating.

That's not what actions are for. Use the createData functions

Do you mean createRouteData function, because I didn't find createDats in the docs?

yeah. there are variations like createRouteData, createServerData, ect.

actions are for data mutations

@grustamli have a look at useIsRouting()

If necessary you can pass the signal from root.tsx into context where you manipulate the store. For an example see this or this.
