Error: could not find react-redux context value; please ensure the component is wrapped in a : Redux with NextJS

Question

I am building my first Next.js site with Redux and I am running into a problem with the error:

Error: could not find react-redux context value; please ensure the component is wrapped in a

I am using _document.js to create 'template' for my site, which includes a header and footer:

import Document, { Html, Head, Main, NextScript } from 'next/document'
import { PublicHeader, Footer } from '../components';

class Public extends Document {
  static async getInitialProps(ctx) {
    const initialProps = await Document.getInitialProps(ctx)
    return { ...initialProps }
  }

  render() {
    return (
      <Html>
        <Head>
            <link rel="preconnect" href="https://fonts.googleapis.com" />
            <link rel="preconnect" href="https://fonts.gstatic.com" crossOrigin />
            <link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Lato:wght@300;400;700&family=Poppins:wght@300;400;600;700;800&display=swap" rel="stylesheet"/>


            <link href="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet" integrity="sha384-1BmE4kWBq78iYhFldvKuhfTAU6auU8tT94WrHftjDbrCEXSU1oBoqyl2QvZ6jIW3" crossorigin="anonymous" />
            <script src="https://kit.fontawesome.com/aa1831f3ef.js" crossOrigin="anonymous"></script>
        </Head>
        <body>
          <PublicHeader />
          <Main />
          <Footer />
          <NextScript>
              <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/dist/js/bootstrap.bundle.min.js" integrity="sha384-ka7Sk0Gln4gmtz2MlQnikT1wXgYsOg+OMhuP+IlRH9sENBO0LRn5q+8nbTov4+1p" crossOrigin="anonymous"></script>
          </NextScript>
        </body>
      </Html>
    )
  }
}

export default Public

I have Redux set up with a store and then I wrapped the _app.js with the Provider.

import '../styles/css/main.css';
import { useStore } from '../redux/store'
import { Provider } from 'react-redux'
import { persistStore } from 'redux-persist'
import { PersistGate } from 'redux-persist/integration/react'

export default function App({ Component, pageProps }) {
  const store = useStore(pageProps.initialReduxState)
  const persistor = persistStore(store, {}, function () {
    persistor.persist()
  })

  return (
    <Provider store={store}>
      <PersistGate loading={<div>loading</div>} persistor={persistor}>
        <Component {...pageProps} />
      </PersistGate>
    </Provider>
  )
}

All works fine inside the pages but when I try to use useDispatch or useSelector, I get the error. I am assuming it is because the _document is above the _app so it can wrap the template around it, but how can I make the store and dispatch available to the _document?

You should not add React components in _document - that should be done in _app instead.

From the Custom Document documentation:

Document is only rendered in the server, event handlers like onClick won't work.

React components outside of <Main /> will not be initialized by the browser. Do not add application logic here or custom CSS (like styled-jsx). If you need shared components in all your pages (like a menu or a toolbar), take a look at the App component instead.

The solution is to move PublicHeader and Footer to your custom _app, so they get initialised properly and have access to the Redux store.

export default function App({ Component, pageProps }) {
    // Remaining code

    return (
        <Provider store={store}>
            <PersistGate loading={<div>loading</div>} persistor={persistor}>
                <PublicHeader />
                <Component {...pageProps} />
                <Footer />
            </PersistGate>
        </Provider>
    )
}

When using workspaces make sure to have both @reduxjs/toolkit and react-redux installed in the workspace root node_modules folder.
