Modules states can't be overwritten in their entirety about vuex

[yyx990803]

State is an argument, which is just a local variable inside the function, assigning it to something else obviously won't work, that's how javascript works. The gist is that instead of replacing it like that, you should always treat the state as an irreplaceable root and hold actual state as properties under it.

Well explained, thanks – sorry to bring up a non-issue.

I'm wondering what the best practice would be when trying to achieve this?
I wrote this

  [SET_FILE_SYSTEM]: (state, details) => {
    emptyObjects(state, details)
    mergeObjects(state, details)
  }

But I have a felling this isn't exatly a best practice...

Better late than sorry... just as a reference. Overwrite whole store with response data:

SET_COMMENTS (state, response) {
  Object.assign(state, response)
}
